Global payment gateways series: Part 2 – Types of payment gateways

Introduction – 

In this report, we take a look at how your investment – or your lack of investment – in your ecommerce payment method infrastructure can have a significant impact on revenue. Choosing payment gateways that advertise the best protection and security options might not be all you need to consider – customers are interested in payment method options. They want the convenience of knowing they can use a credit card, direct debit, contactless payment options, and they love knowing they can pay in familiar currencies. Does your ecommerce store provide the user experience your customers expect, or will they abandon their shopping cart at the checkout window?
