Payfast
Payfast + LekkerInvoice
Primarily used by merchants based in or doing business in South Africa, Payfast is one of the leading digital payment solutions in that country.
Where Is Payfast Available?
In order to use Payfast, you must have a South African bank account, as all payments will be received in South African Rand. However, this doesn’t stop you from receiving payments from customers regardless of where they are located in the world.
Receive Credit Card Payments Worldwide
While Payfast currently only supports Visa and Mastercard, these two payment processors hold an estimated 80% share of the credit card market.
Credit card payments are still the preferred method of payment for the vast majority of online transactions, and Payfast offers a convenient method for both you and your clients to send and receive payments with a credit card.
EFT Payments Made Easy
An electronic funds transfer (EFT) is a bank-to-bank method of payment used by financial institutions around the world. These can include payments such as debit transactions, wire transfers, etc.
EFT payments are convenient and their fees are typically far lower than other methods such as credit cards and other third-party payment solutions. This can be especially helpful when handling large transactions on your biggest invoices where the fees charged for using other options might take a serious bite out of your profits.
Automatic Billing for Automatic Peace of Mind
Is your online business a subscription-based model? Do you have customers who place the same order on a recurring basis? Are you an attorney or professional that works on a retainer?
Payfast supports automatic and recurring billing to make the lives of you and your clients more convenient by removing the need to make manual payments for each and every invoice.
QR Payments
With Payfast, you can create a QR code and send it to your customers to make payments. QR platforms are available throughout the African and South African banking systems. QR payments are also quickly gaining in popularity across the world as a preferred method for secure and instantaneous money transfers.
