eWallets

Electronic Wallets, most commonly known as e-Wallets is gaining traction thanks to PayPal's success.

For a consumer, the ability to upload money to a virtual online wallet and being able to pay (and receive) funds online has made the entire online auction business the sucess that it is today.

Paypal has been a leader in the eWallet field and with over 100 million account members in 103 countries worldwide today, the company is now expanding outside of auction websites. GlobalCollect enables merchants to add Paypal as a payment options where this payment method is successful and will enable more customers to be able to pay. 

Payment Process

How do eWallets work? A cusumer places an order on a merchant's website, chooses to pay with the desired its eWallet (such as Paypal). The consumer will then be redirected to a dedicated page where he can log in and confirm the payment of his order through the eWallet. Upon completion of the payment, the customer is redirected back to the merchant's page for a confirmation of complete order.
