Openpay comes with many advantages for merchants, including increased sales. By offering your customers an interest-free buy now, pay later option, you're providing your customers with an additional payment option. Openpay can also be used as an additional sales tool to retain customers. You will also receive your payments the day after the transaction is made and will have access to statistics and market insights. To be part of the Openpay network, you will have to make a payment. There are also other fees, including commission fees and transaction fees.
Openpay helps online and bricks-and-mortar retailers convert more customers by offering an additional payment option. Openpay lets customers buy now and pay later, with a few different payment plans available.
If you are a retailer who has decided to integrate Openpay into your online business, your customers can simply choose to pay with Openpay if they have an account. Retailers such as yourself get paid the next business day as Openpay has a very quick turnover when it comes to settling transactions with merchants.
In store, you can install beacons that let customers with an iPhone iOS10 operating system be alerted by a push notification that Openpay is available.
Upon applying for a merchant account, you are required to list whether or not your business is available for web sales. This is where you list your point of sales system. A customer service representative will then get back to you about whether or not your application has been successful. A tender type is created for the point of sales system that you have and this is how Openpay integrates with it. Some of the systems they integrate with are WooCommerce and Magento.
There are many benefits that come with offering Openpay, which include:
As a merchant, you have to pay in order to be a part of the Openpay network. This cost is outlined to you before you sign an agreement to become a merchant with Openpay. There are also various other fees, such as the commission rate that Openpay takes. The commission fees are tailored to your specific business and industry and this will impact how much you have to pay Openpay to use its service. There is also a transaction fee that is similarly tailored to your specific business and industry and affects how much you have to pay. The fees that are charged are generally a small percentage of the sales that have been made.
Openpay offers payment plans of varying lengths. After setting up their account online or instore, customers are required to pay a small deposit and repay their balance fortnightly. Customers select their preferred account and these repayments are automatic. Openpay plans are interest-free for shoppers but they may have to pay certain other fees, such as an establishment fee or a late fee. Here are more details on how Openpay works for customers.
You can start offering Openpay in your store, whether it’s online or instore, through completing a merchant application on its website. Some of the details that you need to include in order to be considered are:
It might seem a bit daunting with all of the information that you have to provide, but with the increase in sales that you’ll see after incorporating Openpay into your point of sales, it will pay off in no time.
