Here’s a payments product I’d happily pay 1c per payment transaction for. Yet, I don’t think there is a company out there that does it all. Requirements: - A plug-and-play checkout UX - that has the quality of Shopify or Stripe Elements - that is hyper-compliant by region (e.g. payment cards on top in Sweden, scheme selection for cobranded cards) - that allows me to set contractual rules (e.g. exclusivity deals with a BNPL provider so no two BNPLs can show up side by side) - that allows flexible layouts for pay now / pay later - that allows incorporating gift card input and stored payment method selection - that dynamically uses AI to present the payment method that is most likely to succeed - and a conversion-optimized card form that does not require me to be PCI compliant - allows free placement of legal copy (t&c, privacy policy, etc) - allows code-free A/B testing of both payment methods AND card schemes - fully stylable in all respects - fully native mobile SDKs that are small in size and controllable without an app release - agnostic of any PSP, orchestrator, or other gateway. Just the UX as a pluggable module. All of this should be such a commodity yet every marketplace I know either plugs in a UX from their only PSP, builds their own, or relies on less-than-ideal solutions from third parties. No company does this out of the box in a no-code/low-code fashion. I’d happily pay more than 500k EUR per year for this. Why does this not exist?

How important is a Unified Checkout for your business? 🙋♂️ Even though the answer for the same can differ from business to business and person to person, for the majority it is a simple "Yeah, why not? 🤷♀️ ". This is indeed the current attitude to have because, its payments, you just need to be able to collect it. But as time passes by, its like piling up clothes on a chair, starts out manageable but becomes overwhelming eventually (my clothes pile is still in the path of exponential growth). A lot of things that you might want may not be possible, or if possible could be a hassle. 😞 Many customisations you might need may not be possible, or if possible could be a hassle. 😪 If you want to add another payment partner or processor, it may not be possible, or if possible -- well you get the gist of it. 😤 While there are a lot of solutions to these and many more problems, one solution that remains close to me (since I have been very involved in the development of it) has been Hyperswitch and its SDK for its Unified Checkout. One might ask, how is it different than any other SDK there is, whats so special? It might not be special for a business to add as many payment partners as they want (Stripe, Adyen, Checkout, etc. ) without it making a difference to the checkout experience (expect! new payment methods yay!) 😯 It might not be special for a business to adapt its checkout experience to that of their UI 😮 It might not be special for a business to dictate which payment partner the payment should go through depending on loads of parameters 😲 But thats just the tip of the iceberg. For knowing why it might not be special or special, you might just have to checkout Hyperswitch 👨🎨 Whats my favourite? The resilient open source backend? The dynamic powerful dashboard? Well its the SDK and its UI configurability (you can call it a developer's bias though 🤷♂️ ) At the end of the day it is all about experience, so I'll just share one with you.

Integrating Payment Gateways in Bubble: Facilitating Secure Online Transactions In the world of e-commerce, ensuring smooth and secure online payments is key to success. Thanks to platforms like Bubble, developers can now create robust web applications without extensive coding. Join us as we explore integrating payment gateways into Bubble apps for secure transactions. Payment gateways authorize and process online transactions securely, encrypting payment details for safe transmission. Integration into web apps enables businesses to accept payments through various channels. Steps to Integrate Payment Gateways in Bubble: 1. Choose the Right Payment Gateway: Before proceeding with integration, select a payment gateway that aligns with your business requirements and geographic location. Popular options include Stripe, PayPal, Square, and Authorize.net, each offering unique features and pricing structures. 2. Set Up API Keys: Obtain #API keys from your chosen payment gateway provider. These keys will authenticate your Bubble application's communication with the payment gateway's servers, enabling secure data exchange. 3. Configure API Connector: In Bubble's development environment, navigate to the API Connector plugin and create a new API connection. Input the endpoint #URLs provided by your payment gateway, along with the necessary authentication parameters (API keys). 4. Define API Workflows: Define #workflows within your Bubble application to handle various payment-related tasks, such as processing payments, handling successful/failed #transactions, and updating transaction statuses. Utilize Bubble's #visual workflow #editor to map out these processes efficiently. 5. Implement Payment Forms: #Design and integrate payment forms within your Bubble application to collect #customer payment information securely. Leverage Bubble's #built-in form #elements and styling options to create a seamless user experience. 6. Test and Debug: Test payment integration in your Bubble app thoroughly for #functionality and #security. Use sandbox/test mode from the payment gateway for transactions and #debug issues promptly. 7. Deploy and Monitor: After testing, deploy your Bubble app live and #monitor payments in #real-time. Implement strong error handling for post-deployment #issues. Security and Compliance: When integrating payment gateways in Bubble apps, prioritize security and compliance to protect customer data and prevent #fraud.

54% of buyers leave the checkout process 😲 20% leave the checkout/payment page 🤯 — Stripe 2022 report That's buyers with intent leaving the funnel. CRO or Checkout Rate Optimization is something that typically retailers and marketing agencies undertake. But really any software vendor or merchant in any industry should be doing CRO. It's a huge deal. Most people are focussing on top-of-funnel activity to get customers in, but then wasting their efforts because checkout is not converting. Most importantly, I would suggest, you need to fix the 20% problem before doing too much optimization on the rest of the funnel. I understand the maths here, but ensure that the buyers with the highest intent convert, these are likely to become your best customers. The #1 reason cited for buyers leaving the payment page is ‘Trust.' Trust is created in a number of ways, but ultimately it comes down to a feeling of safety: 1. Speed, the checkout flow has to be under 2 mins, not too many pages, max - two, ideally one. 2. This also means you need to make form entering easy or pre-filled, saved payment options available, whatever you can do speed this up. 3. Friendly UX - Does this flow and UI give me confidence? Is it short, inline or am I being sent to a third-party page with 8bit graphics. 4. Provide Express checkout options with logos, these can speed up the checkout process and give the customer confidence that you are working with their preferred convenient payment method. 5. Display card logos if you can. 6. Please make sure it works on mobile and has mobile wallet payment options. 7. If you have additional things like shipping/logistics in the way, then make UX and cost as least intrusive and transparent as possible. Of course, there are many more things that you can do to improve the checkout rate of your site. Everyone is a consumer with a phone, the expectation for a slick trustworthy checkout is ubiquitous, whether you're B2B or B2C, selling travel, insurance or food delivery. Want 20% bump in sales and revenue, then fix your payment page and process. #ecommerce #payments
