Web Chat Payments Web Chat PaymentsWhat are Web Chat Payments?
Web Chat Payments enable customers to enter their credit or debit card details without the sensitive card details being heard, seen or recorded by the customer service agent processing the payment. Provides companies with a secure way of handling payments by Email or Text removing you from the scope of PCI-DSS.
The customer and the agent remain in contact throughout the entire process, but the sensitive card data is prevented from reaching the agent or the client’s systems.
How does it work
Agent uses Web Chat Payments to generate and send a secure web link by email or text.
On receipt to their chosen device, phone, tablet or desktop, the customer clicks the web link. The link opens a PCI-DSS Level 1 Web Chat Payments compliant web page which automatically verifies the customer’s identity.
The agent can see the transaction being processed on screen but can’t see any sensitive details.
Customer enters their card details.
Customer enters their 3D secure details if requested by their credit or debit card supplier.
Once the caller has finished entering the card details, the system submits the information to the payment gateway. If the transaction is successful the merchant receives confirmation & can continue their conversation or alternatively ask the customer to try another card while remaining on the same chat or call.

Additional Features
Tokenisation
Tokenization is the process of replacing sensitive card data with unique identification symbols that retain all the essential information about the data without compromising its security. Customers only need to register their card details once saving time on regular payments. No sensitive card details are stored.

Recurring payments are automatic payments to authorise and collect charges immediately. This amount is deducted on the due date of every billing cycle, such as weekly, fortnightly, monthly etc. Customer don’t have to worry about the late fees or failed payments as they do with a failed direct debit.
