With the introduction of “SME Online” by global payment solutions
company, Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) in the country will
now enjoy Internet payment solution.
“SME Online” is a suite of value-added services that work seamlessly
with MasterCard Internet Gateway Service (MiGS) and extends the
benefits of online card acceptance to a broader merchant segment.
Speaking at a launch, Country Manager, MasterCard West Africa, Mrs.
Omokehinde Ojomuyide said, “With the likes of Jumia.com,
wakanow.com, Nigeria’s Online Travel Website, already signed on to
MIGS payment gateway solution, shoppers in Nigeria are already
enjoying the benefits of convenient and seamless daily online
shopping. SME Online will extend these benefits to thousands of
smaller merchants and open the world of online shopping to millions
of Nigerians.”
In continuation, MiGS provides a comprehensive Internet payments
solution, which banks can offer to their merchant customers who
seek to accept payments on their websites from cardholders of all
major card schemes wherever they are.
According to the company, “A key benefit for merchants is that the
system can be self-managed. It is designed to enable SME merchants
establish an internet presence for their businesses, including website
design and processing of batch and individual card payments.”
Other advantages to merchants include: allowing them build their
own web shops, including shopping carts and online product
catalogues, and providing them with a custom branded e-commerce
solution to manage and authorise online payment transactions in
over 145 currencies.
Once merchants create their own web shop, they can start accepting
online shoppers on a simple platform that embeds lots of
functionalities. They can also add new functions at any time.
