Before launch, the same people who handle your payments setup review your marketplace 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 marketplace 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 or reviews marketplace businesses more closely under its terms, so many UK marketplace businesses use a specialist provider. eCom Pay works with marketplace merchants. The setup is handled by experienced people, and approved accounts get next working day settlement with no rolling reserve.
Shopify Payments runs on Stripe, so the same terms apply. Shopify lets you add a third party payment gateway instead. eCom Pay connects to Shopify and WooCommerce, so marketplace businesses can take card payments with next working day settlement.
Marketplace is a specialist category that mainstream processors restrict or review closely. eCom Pay works with marketplace businesses in the UK, with 150+ currencies and next working day settlement once approved.
Download your transaction and customer records first, then talk to a specialist. eCom Pay works with marketplace businesses, the setup is handled by experienced people, and approved accounts get next working day settlement with no rolling reserve. eCom Pro can move your site across while you keep trading.
