Online Payment Platform

One of the most important things you need in order to have a profitable ecommerce store or business is a secure online payment platform. Not only do online payment platforms offer a convenient way for your customers to make payments, but they also streamline the payment process (i.e. securely transmitting the payment data from your customer’s bank account to yours) so that you can focus on the other important aspects of running your business, such as managing inventory, website maintenance and marketing. 

If you’re in the early stages of getting your online business up and running or are already established but are looking to switch to another payment platform that’s better suited to your business needs, this blog is for you. Below we’ll touch on the importance of secure online payment portals and some of the popular payment processors in Eswatini & South Africa.  

Secure online payment portals 

One of the most important considerations when it comes to selecting an online payment platform or online payment portal is security. This is because consumers want to know that their personal and financial information is safe when making online payments. It’s therefore essential to choose a payment provider that offers robust security features such as encryption and fraud protection, and which is PCI DSS Level 1 compliant. 

In addition to security features, payment portals should also be easy to use and navigate and offer a variety of payment methods to suit your customers’ preferences. A seamless payment experience can increase customer satisfaction and reduce cart abandonment rates, which is a win-win for both your business and customers. Happy customers equate to a successful business.
