With all that PayLeap does to make ecommerce payment gateway options more manageable and appealing, it’s easy to see how we stand above other companies that claim to service ecommerce merchant accounts. Smashing Magazine recently posted an article that detailed some of the mistakes ecommerce designers typically make:

• Lack of Payment Options - There are plenty of sites out there that only allow users to pay wit Visa or MasterCard, or to only pay with a PayPal account. There’s no reason for this anymore. What about the person who has an AmEx and doesn’t have or want a PayPal account? What about the person who doesn’t have a credit card and wants to pay straight from their bank account? [An ecommerce payment gateway] needs to provide as many payment solutions as it practical to optimize the number of orders you get. (PayLeap supports all major North American card networks. Visa, MasterCard, Discover, American Express, JCB, Wright Express, Carte Blanche & Diner’s Club.)
• Poor Customer Service Options - [An ecommerce payment gateway] needs to make it easy for customers to get in touch with [a representative from its company] if they have a problem or question. Make it clear what the best way to contact [a representative] is if they have a technical question, a sales question, [etc.]. (If you are a PayLeap customer, you may log in to our Help Desk support.
