How to Increase Profitability of Internet Acquiring Business

RIGA, Latvia - June 23, 2014 - PRLog -- Quality processing requires substantial investments both for setup and maintenance. Is it better to create your own processing center or turn to a third party? Analysts point out that in recent years outsourcing payment solutions are given preference.

Normally it takes at least a year to develop and certificate a processing system,’ says Alexander Mikhailovsky, eComCharge representative. Not every company can afford such financial and time investments. Moreover, to find qualified developers of processing solutions may also be a challenge. In this case specialized outsourcing companies come to the rescue as they can significantly reduce licensing, maintenance and operational costs and increase profitability of your internet acquiring business.  Using a white-label payment platform simplifies accompanying technical procedures and administrative matters: acquisition of licenses and certification, partnering with payment systems and banks.

There is no doubt that in-house processing has a number of advantages as it makes it possible to introduce new products and services faster. But if a card processing is not your core business, it might be more effective to focus on your own core business and specialised services.

beGateway's White Label Payment Platform
When developing beGateway, eComCharge (http://www.ecomcharge.com/) followed the key factors determining comfortability and reliability of a white-label payment gateway. First, it is scalability. beGateway is suitable for companies with a small number of transactions and connected payment gateways, and for major customers with global requirements. Secondly, its modularity provides the maximum flexibility of configuration. Changes in the client's payment gateway's configuration will not affect the performance and functionality of the whole platform. The third factor includes the benefits of cloud solutions:

provision of the buyer with a complete infrastructure (servers, databases, storage, etc.);
absence of necessity to get a PCI compliance certificate to use the platform (it has already been level 1 certified and tested annually to prove compliance with this standard);
automatic update of the platform, ensuring continuous improvement and support of the system, introduction of new functionality, compliance with trends and requirements of the and Internet acquiring industry.

beGateway as Platform-as-a-Service (PAAS)
According to Alexander Mikhailovsky, this model of cloud computing services solves a number of challenges faced by the financial institution. ‘To develop your own processing system from scratch is too long and expensive. To buy a developed system is just very expensive. To rent a processing system in the cloud turns out to be the most effective option which allows you to save time and money on launching your own PSP."

eComCharge company provides expertise not only during the integration and the initial configuration of the system, but also a 24/7 monitoring of its stability, as well as detection and elimination of errors.

It is no exaggeration to say that the right choice of solutions for processing with due consideration of specific character of the company and industry trends determines the further development of your business in the field of online acquiring.
