Accepting Payments Online

To ensure a seamless and convenient transaction experience for your customers, we`ve integrated a range of versatile payment options into our platform. Whether your clients prefer traditional methods or newer alternatives, we`ve got you covered. Here`s an overview of the payment gateways we`ve integrated:

  • PayPal
  • Stripe
  • Square
  • Afterpay
  • Zip Pay

These choices are reputable and widely embraced, catering to a diverse array of customer preferences.

Choosing the Right Payment Solution

At the very least, having one secure payment option on your website is essential. Our recommendation involves crafting a "Payment Stack" that harmonizes exceptionally well for seamless transactions:

  1. Square or Stripe
  2. PayPal
  3. Afterpay

Each option is chosen to eliminate hassles, ensuring a frictionless checkout process for your customers. However, we recognise that your unique business needs might steer you toward a particular gateway.

Square and Stripe: The Basics

Both Square and Stripe provide similar functionalities, allowing customers to enter their credit card information on your website, with automatic card charging. Additionally:

  • Stripe offers features like Apple Pay, Google Wallet, and Link payments with no additional requirements.
  • Both accept a wide range of credit cards including MasterCard, Visa, Amex, and Diners, without necessitating additional accounts.
  • Their fees are comparable, making the choice a matter of preference.
  • Payment forms are generated by the respective companies, minimizing the risk of credit card number leakage on your website.
  • Square can enable configuring payments over a certain amount to require additional 3DS authentication, ideal for high-value orders.

PayPal: A Trusted Choice

PayPal stands as one of the world`s most trusted payment gateways, highly recommended for your website. Many consumers specifically seek out PayPal as a mark of credibility. The integration process opens a new window for customers, where they log into their account to approve the payment before being redirected to your site to complete the transaction.

To accept PayPal on your website the account must be a Business Account, and you must have Activated and verified the Account.

Afterpay: A Widely Recognized Option

Afterpay`s popularity is undeniable – customers often search for merchants that offer this service. While it enjoys broad recognition, it`s important to note that Afterpay`s fees are higher, reaching up to 5%. Additionally, refunds through Afterpay still result in retained fees. However, it`s a gateway that holds sway with a significant customer base.

Fraud Protection and Online Sales

A crucial aspect of online transactions is fraud protection. While most modern payment gateways offer some level of fraud checking, it`s important to understand that unless 3DS is utilized, the merchant bears chargeback liability. PayPal and Afterpay provide their own fraud protection, safeguarding both merchants and customers.

Integration and Implementation

To add these gateways to your dashboard, follow these steps:

  1. Sign up for the desired service.
  2. Validate or activate your account.
  3. Share your login credentials with us, and we`ll handle the rest.

Alternatively, our help files can guide you in adding these accounts independently.

 

For custom requirements, we offer tailored gateway integrations for an additional fee.

As you embark on your online payment journey, remember that providing varied and secure payment options is pivotal to a positive customer experience. Should you have any questions or need further assistance, we`re here to support you every step of the way.
