What is Payment Gateway?

In order to facilitate payments online for better reconcialation (As a seller you will NOT need to ask for bank-in slips anymore! ) Payment Gateway does few things :

  • sets the pricing of the total – that means no more miscommunication or mispaid amount (No more “Eh, how come you bank in less?” )
  • allows major malaysia banks (trust us, its every bank transactions you need for 99%)
  • (optional) some allows Credit Card – good for large amounts, some customers like creditcard points, like Maybanks Treatpoints
  • its automatic – no more checking bank slips, no more worrying about slips being tampered
