Info about becoming an IPS partner



Benefits of using IPS

IPS is a completely different method for your customers in making payments on your web site. As there is no credit card involved the level of security is extremely high and the chance of fraud is dramatically reduced. Just think - No charge backs!!! Here are what we feel are the major benefits in using the IPS payment system:

Increased Security

Our system is designed to analyse transactions to report suspicious patterns of spending, based on five years' experience in successfully detecting and preventing attempts to use our system fraudulently.

Our authentication techniques are far superior to the simple credit card number/expiry date combination used for normal credit card transactions. Users must pre-register to use the system, and enter user name and password to access their IPS account. Payment details are entered once and stored in our secure servers without being disclosed to merchants. In addition, a detailed account history acts as an audit trail that makes it very unlikely that a user would fraudulently challenge a transaction.

Reduce Charge-Backs

Because the customer has already deposited money into his IPS account and is required to type a user ID and password as part of their transaction the chances of fraud is dramatically reduced. By using an ID and password the transaction becomes similar to obtaining a customer signature. The chances of receiving a dreaded credit card like charge-back is almost nil using IPS.

Expand Your Market

Using a credit card over the Internet is still a major concern for up to 50% of online users. IPS gives the customer a method of payment that actually occurs offline, within the banking system. This allows you to access a totally new market that has been slow to accept shopping over the Internet. Just think what your revenues would look like if they were to increase by up to 50%!!

Work Your Negative Card Base

If you are currently using other payment systems you may or may not be aware that they keep a negative card database. This holds all rejected transactions for your site. In some cases you may find that the only reason the transaction has been rejected is that it is from a particular country. If you offer the customer to pay via an IPS account after they have had their transaction rejected you will be sure to convert additional customers who would never had the opportunity to shop with you. Just think of the additional revenue you would see if you were able to convert just a small percentage of rejected transactions!

Immediate Payment of Funds

With an online credit card purchase you don't get your hands on the money straight away. However, when you make a sale through IPS your customer's money is transferred instantly and seamlessly from their IPS account to yours. It is your money after all.

Micro Payments

The current credit card system is not suited for charging for small transactions. IPS is able to charge tiny amounts of money to very large transaction amounts. This gives you an opportunity to develop a different method of charging your customers. Just think of the possibilities for you to charge a small amount to allow customers to access particular content on your site.
