What does eCommerce mean to my business? Business competition in Australia is at an all-time high. This is where your business can thrive in an online space.
Reduce your overheads and move your business online, this gives you instant access to vast new markets including overseas or even just interstate. ECommerce websites offer a series of unique advantages including:
Increased sales - instantly sell your products Australia wide, or globally
In regards to accepting credit cards online, you can either do it through PayPal, or hosted on your own website via a ‘payment gateway’.
If choosing the payment gateway option, we will set you up with Relay Pay as it is the cheapest and offers the most features. The cost is $330/yr + 33c per transaction.
A payment gateway also requires an ‘online merchant facility’ from a bank. This works similar to a terminal id for the POS machine on your desk, only for online transactions.
The banks offer different packages for the online merchant facilities, some with monthly fees, some without. It doesn’t matter which bank you go with – just try to get the best deal.
When you call them, mention that you are after an “online merchant facility for processing transactions online via a payment gateway”. They will send you some documentation, which if you send to us, we can help you with it.
