WorldAccess

WorldAccess is an Internet-based point-of-sale solution that enables you to accept payments from your shoppers by phone, fax or post. Using WorldAccess you pass those payments through the WorldPay system, on the shoppers behalf.

You do not require an Internet store integrated with our WorldPay systems as you can start taking payments through WorldAccess as soon as your application has been accepted.

Function

You can use WorldAccess to support your business in several different ways.

Choice of Payment Methods: Use WorldAccess to provide your online shoppers with alternative payment methods to help ensure you make the sale - some 'window shoppers' are inclined to trust the more traditional ways of making payments offline via fax, phone and post.

Offline Sales: if your business only has offline outlets accepting payments by fax, phone or post, WorldAccess provides an online solution for payment processing. In a Call Centre, for example, each representative uses WorldAccess to enter customer payment/card details.

All Sale Solution: if your business has offline outlets as well as an Internet store, accepting offline payments may be preferred. WorldAccess enables you to satisfy this requirement without having to support diverse processing and reporting systems. By entering payments accepted offline through WorldAccess, those payments are processed and reported by the same secure payment system and reported by the same account management system, as payments made online by shoppers using your Internet store

Fast Start-up: although WorldPay makes every effort to ease and speed the process, building an Internet store and integrating it with a payment processing system, can take time. If the rest of your business is ready to trade you can use WorldAccess as a stop-gap payment system until your Internet store is ready.
