The site was enabled for online payments. Customers now can choose to pay either via their preferred credit card option (VISA or MasterCard), or direct electronic bank transfer (EFT). The payments are secured via ZAPPER.
Zapper is a QR code and online payment method in South Africa. With more than 70,000 merchants and 800,000 users, they are a large player in this field.
Zapper is a solution based on the use of QR codes. The way it works is that a Zapper user will have to install the Zapper app on their phone and link it to their bank card. Then, when they want to make a payment, they only need to scan a QR code on your website using their phone’s camera. Then, once they approve the payment through the Zapper app, the amount is sent to you. As the process does not require entering card details, this can help with conversion rates.
Besides processing payments, Zapper offers different value-added services.
Zapper integrates with several eCommerce platforms, such as Shopify, WooCommerce, Ecwid, or Magento.
Overall, Zapper has the great advantage of not needing to enter your payment details at checkout.
Pros:
- QR based
- Customers are familiar with this payment method for in-store shopping
