Have you ever had any cause to ask this type of question; "pls i want to accept payment from my website through local and international debit and
credit card holders. May i know how to go about it"
Relax! I have got the simplest solution for you here.
Adding card payment facilities to a website might be a sought of worry especially when you sell a product that readilly caught attention of customers whenever they read through your website promo page.
The opportunity I have also seen in accepting card payment online is that it rapidly increases the rate of sales as many potential buyers will not be willing to come back again if they are deprived of the opportunity in the first place. Many online buyers like myself hates banking hall and teller transactions.
Hence card payments allow you to take advantage of the folllowing type of customers;
i. Impulse buyers: Those who got fired up due to your advertisement and are ready to buy your product immediately if the opportunity is there.
ii. International buyers: Those who are outside your local country and will not have acess to your local bank branches, yet are in great passion for your product.
HENCE, integrating cards on your website in highly important.
Here in Nigeria, there are several methods claiming capability for this feat but some facts
I have discovered on many of them.
Limitations;
1. Some can actually offer this service, but you will have to meet with them one-on-one before the integration can be done.
2. Some other combines limitation 1 with the fact that the charges are just out of reach as you will be charged between $30 to $50 monthly using their service.
3. Some will have you open different account with certain bank before you are eligible to have the plu-in integrated with your account.
4. Some can work only on joomla, Wordpress etc.
The Solution:
I have practically tested some of the available ones here in Nigeria like;
- AlertPay
- SimplePay
- Interswitch
- VoguePay
I advise you to take a trial at some of them too like I did. Notwithstanding, the one I actually picked thereafter and really working for me because it scales those Limitations is VoguePay.
I sell some of my information Products online with it and also considering it for my bulk SMS portal too.
Payout forms and bank account forms are easy to set-up and your transactions are safe and secure. It accomodate all Nigeria ATM Cards.
