Payment Links Bridge Breakdowns in Customer Digital Journeys

Products and services bought on websites mostly have fixed offerings at a fixed price. A seat on a specific flight costs x. Should a customer require something that the digital offering does not have, like a group booking, then the Customer journey moves away from the website to email, chat or the call centre. Once the Customer’s request is understood and the price agreed, a simple payments link can complete the journey. Organisations are relying more and more on their digital channels for revenue generation. Payment links have been successfully used in email commerce for a while.

At the height of the global Covid-19 pandemic, Nedbank became the first bank to offer small, medium and micro enterprises (SMMEs) the ability to turn their cellphones into a payment acceptance device with the launch of its Tap-on-phone functionality in October 2020.

Following a successful closed pilot in June, the easily downloadable app has empowered a number of merchants and business owners with the ability to accept card payments on their cellphones without having to purchase point-of-sale (POS) devices. Merchants include beauty parlours, hairdressers and car washes, proving the importance of such a solution for small to medium sized enterprises in South Africa.

Due to the Covid-19 pandemic facing the world we have all been sensitised to the need for social distancing, which has impacted all areas of our lives, including how we transact on a day-to-day basis. The tap-on-phone functionality enables contactless payment acceptance and there’s no health risk to the merchant or customer.

IndiGo goes Mass Transit

/0 Comments/in /by

Mass transit is not something many African payment facilitators can get involved in. This is mainly because there are not many mass transit systems on the continent and most of those that are using closed-loop payment systems. So when iVeri was commissioned to add open-loop contactless card acceptance to South Africa’s Gautrain system was a challenge we embraced.

The project entailed integrating IndiGo, our integrated multi-lane product to the existing turnstiles and payment management system supplied by Thales, and then linking this to Nedbank for processing.

After an extensive pilot period, the system went live on 31 October this year and has been running smoothly ever since. Take up is good and especially convenient to foreigners who now do not need to buy and fund the proprietary Gautrain Card.

What we are especially proud of is that the operators of Gautrain and Thales backed African IP for this solution. It also demonstrated the versatility of our IndiGo product and the iVeri Payment Gateway.
