What is a Payment Gateway? Why do I need one?
A payment gateway is used to take card payments online, credit and debit cards. In your shop you might use a Fixed Counter Terminal or Mobile Wireless Card Reader or Store PDQ terminal to take card payments. Your website needs a payment gateway to do the same as your payments setup in your shop. The payment gateway checks the customer’s card details, and passes the funds through to your bank account.
We will help you get your payment gateway set up and connected to your website. We currently recommend Stripe for your payment gateway. Stripe enables your website to recive payment from your customers using Apple Pay and Google Pay as well as by card.
Stripe handles card payments plus payment by Apple Pay and Google Pay. Apple Pay and Google pay make payment easy for your customers which means more of your orders complete. Free Setup No monthly charge No annual PCI charge No minimum monthly service charge Processing fee 1.5% + 20p per transaction (£45 sale will cost you 88p processing fee) Easy and quick online sign up process, start taking sales straight away.
Your Florist Window website can also accept payments via PayPal. We would normally suggest that you use PayPal in addition to one of the payment gateways above. Many customers think that they need a PayPal account to be able to use PayPal, and if they do not have one, and your website only accepts PayPal, then you may lose business. On the plus side many customers love using PayPal and we have found it to be a very popular option. Having PayPal in addition to a payment gateway is the ideal scenario, and will help you achieve the maximum sales from your website. The costs for PayPal are: PayPal No setup fee, no monthly fee, 3.4% on purchases + £0.20 GBP per transaction
