Dating sits on most mainstream restricted lists because of subscription billing and chargebacks, so founders build the product and then cannot take a payment. Safety features and clear billing are what get dating platforms approved, so we build them in from the start.
Built as product features your customers use, and the features that keep your account healthy once you are live.
Every member verified before they can message, with the result stored against the account.
Selfie checks and moderation queues so fake profiles never go live.
One tap reporting, blocking and a moderation dashboard for your team.
Clear pricing, renewal reminders and easy cancellation, which is what keeps chargebacks down.
Dating safety guidance, community rules and a clear complaints route.
Consent, login history and usage logged automatically, exported as a dispute pack.
Free for trading businesses above £5k a month in card revenue through eCom Pay, with start-ups looked at case by case. Pay monthly below it or for a custom build. Already have a site you like? Use our payments on their own.
Before launch, the same people who handle your payments setup review your dating website and ask for any changes your business needs. Every business is looked at individually, which is why we never publish a checklist and never build to one. The site and the application go through together.
One form starts both your website build and your eCom Pay application.
Our payments team reviews the site as it is built, so nothing is left to chance at launch.
Approved and taking payments in 24 hours* once your documents are in. Next working day settlement, no rolling reserve.
Sharfin designed and built our new website to enable us to accept online payments. The new website looks amazing and navigating around it so simple compared to what we had before. Sharfin and his team have always been available when we have required any technical support or assistance.
Done all our website. It now accepts payments and it was very complex. Reachable at all sorts of odd hours, and had a very simple journey with sharfin. Highly recommend them and their expertise.
Sharfin was an absolute pro. Took time to really try to understand our needs and propose solutions which fit our budget and timescales. He made smart suggestions without being pushy but improving the plan so we didn't waste time or resources on things we don't need.
Every dating website we build is reviewed by the eCom Pay team before anything is submitted, so the pages a payment provider reads are right first time. That is why approval takes 24 hours once your documents are in, not weeks.
The questions founders ask before they apply, including the ones about Stripe, PayPal and Shopify Payments.
Stripe restricts dating services, so UK dating platforms usually need a specialist provider. eCom Pay works with dating platforms, with subscription billing and next working day settlement once approved.
No. Worldpay does not accept dating services, so UK dating platforms need a specialist card processor. eCom Pay works with dating, with subscription billing and next working day settlement once approved, and eCom Pro builds the platform to work with it from day one.
