PayPal Express now available

Posted on by

If you’re especially observant, you may have noticed the PayPal Express Checkout button in the Showtime Theme demo that we posted yesterday.  I can confirm that yes! PayPal Express Checkout has been added to Spiffy Stores, and can be set up to replace (or along-side) the PayPal option in the checkout.

Enabling Paypal Express Checkout in your store should help decrease the number of abandoned carts/orders that store owners experience who rely on PayPal to process transactions, as it takes the customer directly to the PayPal checkout from the shopping cart page to place their order.

We’ve been hard at work adding a little tag to everyone’s store to support the new feature, and it’s been included in all of the Spiffy Stores e-commerce themes.  If you’ve somehow missed out, and want to add the button to your store, there are instructions on how to do this in our knowledge base.

Special deal from Camtech Payment Gateway

Posted on by

Camtech recently contacted us with a great deal that is exclusive to Spiffy Stores owners.

They are offering a low annual fee, and a 40¢ transaction fee.  Comparable services have a higher annual fee and/or transaction fee.

The Camtech Payment Gateway provides an easy and cost-effective way to accept real-time online payments.  Camtech integrates with Australia’s major banks, and is now fully integrated with Spiffy Stores, allowing merchants to process real-time transactions in their checkout.

Camtech have a simple signup process, and can even help with your application for a merchant facility at the bank.  They are undoubtedly the best value payment gateway in Australia, and if you find a better advertised rate they will beat it by 10%.
