Unsure about making the switch from the current payment gateway provider on your website to Verifone Online Payments? We’re here to make the transition as smooth, flexible, and cost-effective as possible. Let’s dive into some of the key aspects of switching to help you get started with confidence.
Seamless Cutover: Use Your Current Provider While Setting Up Our Gateway
Switching providers doesn’t have to disrupt your day-to-day operations. With Eftpos NZ, you can keep using the current payment gateway on your website while you set up ours in the background.
Here’s how to make the most of this approach:
- Confirm Your Contract Notice Period: Review your current contract to understand any cancellation fees or notice periods required. This will allow you to avoid unwanted automatic renewals, which could lock you into another contract term. Aligning your notice period with your go-live date on our gateway will help ensure a seamless switch.
- Save on Fees with Eftpos NZ’s Free Licensing Period: To further ease the transition, your Eftpos NZ sales representative may offer you a period of free licensing fees. This means you can start using our gateway immediately without paying fees to both providers, helping to keep your initial costs low.
Simple, Affordable Integration Options
Setting up a new payment gateway doesn’t need to break the bank. With Eftpos NZ, integrating your website with our payment gateway is straightforward and, in many cases, can be done with minimal technical effort:
- Check Compatibility with Your Website Platform: If you’re using a popular eCommerce platform such as Shopify, WooCommerce, or Zeald we already have a pre-built integration. Check whether we support your platform here.
- Development Resources: For more developer-centric platforms like Magento, custom-built sites or platforms where we don’t have a pre-built integration there may be some initial setup costs if custom development work is required, but the long-term savings on gateway fees can offset these. We offer guides and technical support to help with setup and address any questions along the way.
- Future-Proofed for Growth: As a rapidly evolving payment provider, Eftpos NZ is constantly adding new features, which means that by joining us, you’re also joining a platform designed to grow with your business. We’re always exploring new capabilities that we’ll roll out over time.
Whether your business has complex needs or a simple setup, we’ll work with you to ensure a smooth and tailored integration process.
Step-By-Step Setup: Similar to Your Current Gateway
Switching to Eftpos NZ doesn’t require a complete overhaul. Setting up our payment gateway is designed to be as familiar as possible to ease your transition:
- Install the Plugin: Similar to other gateways, you can easily install our plugin for your eCommerce platform. Our plugins are built to integrate directly with popular platforms, making this step simple and efficient.
- Add Credentials from Your Verifone Central Account: You’ll receive a set of credentials that you can plug into your account settings. We also provide detailed setup guides for each step, so you can be confident you’re getting everything right from the start.
