BAFLaunches Alfa Payment Gateway to Facilitate E-commerce Payments in Pakistan

Pakistan’s premier financial institution, Bank Alfalah, has introduced a simple, secure, and innovative online payment gateway to facilitate the acceptance of online payment transactions for a variety of e-commerce needs.

APG is a comprehensive solution for all digital payments needs that an online business might have. Alfa Payment Gateway’s (APG) key offerings include:

• Instant Digital On-boarding
• No Set-up Cost or Annual Fee
• Lowest per Transaction Charges
• Multiple Payment Modes – All Bank Credit/Debit Cards, Bank Alfalah Accounts & Wallets
• 3D Secure and Fraud Management
• Merchant Financing

Bank Alfalah has transformed the merchant on-boarding process by making it digital end-to-end and hassle-free where merchants can be on-boarded and can collect payments instantly.

APG is designed for all types of e-commerce merchants, corporates, SMEs, and home-based businesses. Furthermore, to cater to the needs of merchants doing businesses on social media platforms and those who do not have a website or app, a ‘Pay by Link’ invoicing system has been developed to enable them to collect payments digitally.

The platform is also technology agnostic, enabling simplified integrations via plug-ins for platforms such as WooCommerce, Magento, OpenCart, PrestaShop, and Shopify. A powerful merchant portal with user-friendly interfaces, analytical tools, and refund/chargeback management is also available.

Commenting on the development, Atif Bajwa, CEO Bank Alfalah, stated, “The scope of digital banking and e-commerce is growing quite rapidly in Pakistan with customers gravitating towards online channels in significant numbers.”

“The Alfa Payment Gateway is a fully digital solution for e-commerce sites, social media stores, and other businesses to integrate online payment collection through the support of Bank Alfalah’s distinct product portfolio,” he added.
