The Indian payment landscape is fragmented and largely cashbased. Although credit and debit cards are widely distributed,
consumers mainly use them for point-of-sale transactions and
cash withdrawals. Indian consumers trust their local banks as a
security guarantee so they prefer to use their banks’ online services
such as Netbanking or Internet Bank Payments, submitting online
payments directly from their bank accounts. Online merchants
entering the Indian marketplace must gain consumer trust.

Brazilian payment methods
Most Brazilian consumers use their credit cards for online
purchases, while businesses often prefer boleto bancário, a
broadly used push payment method supported by all Brazilian
banks and even supermarkets and other point of sales. It was
launched in 1993 and today accounts for over 2 billion transactions
per year. Credit cards represent 50% of all online purchases
and three quarters of these are with instalments. Brazilians are
accustomed to financing their private consumption by paying
in up to 12 instalments. Not offering instalments can result in
losing 30% or more of all potential sales. While the use of debit
cards shows a strong growth in stationary sales, it is insignificant
with online sales, as Brazilian acquirers process these for POS
transactions only. There is probably also less of a need because
of the existence of boleto bancário that is used for about 30% of
all internet purchases. Bank proprietary online payment methods
account for 10-15% and other payment methods such as national
bank transfer or cash deposit represent the remaining 5 to 10%.
Risks
The fraud risks directly associated with Brazilian payment
methods are similar to or in some cases even below international
levels. As the Brazilian payment market is a relatively closed
ecosystem, it is less vulnerable to internationally organized fraud
and apart from credit cards most other payment methods don’t
facilitate chargebacks. The biggest risks for merchants are of

The industry could easily shift volume from the more expensive

Figure 2: Third-Party Payment Provider Recognition
In China, e-commerce has experienced late but rapid growth led
by a unique mix of domestic companies. With a significant number
of debit cards issued and an established e-commerce sector with
popular online payment options, China's e-payments sector has
reached a significant stage of development. Third-party payment
providers, with Alipay in the lead, are the dominant force in the
online market and are here to stay.

Computop’s Multichannel International Payment and Collection Services
Make it Fast and Easy for Merchants to do Business around the Globe
When it comes to expanding their
businesses globally, companies need to
be assured they can offer and support
payment methods appropriate to the
markets they wish to enter.
But the fast changing payment
landscape means meeting local
customer preferences can be a
challenge.
While credit cards and Paypal are
accepted and used around much of
the world, doing business across
borders often demands providing
alternative payment methods.
In addition, managing the tricky
issue of international charge-backs
and protection against payment
default can represent a significant
headache. Getting it wrong can mean
missing out on the widest possible
number of target customers, limiting
conversion at the point of payment,
and potentially opening the door to
increasingly sophisticated fraudsters.
The Computop Difference
Computop perfectly understands what
it takes to trade with confidence in
complex markets like Europe, China,
North America and South America.
As a leading payment service provider
(PSP), its multichannel global payment
platform gives retailers instant access
to over 50 payment methods, including
all relevant local and international
payment options for e-commerce,
Mail Order/Telephone Order (MOTO),
mobile payment, and POS solutions.
As Computop is independent of banks
and other institutions, it’s able to offer
industry-neutral support and advice
to our customers. Operating regional
offices in Europe, North America and
Asia, we are able to offer ‘on the ground’
insights and know-how that takes
account of local market needs.
For example, we help eradicate the need
for organisations to set up Chinese bank
accounts, do credit checks and validate
buyer profiles while still allowing them
to securely sell into the vast buying
audience in China. In addition to this,
we can offer an array of international
and domestic alternative payment
methods that meet the needs of
consumers in territories as diverse as
Australia and New Zealand, Brazil or
Switzerland.
In the last year alone, Computop
has seen a 240 per cent increase in
demand from European and US retailers
looking for payment services that enable
them to take advantage of the booming
Asian economy.
Computop Paygate
Computop’s state of the art Paygate
platform is PCI certified, giving multichannel service providers and retailers
the ability to transact securely.
Plus, it can incorporate credit card
origin checks, GEO IP origin checks,
device identification and velocity
checks to help prevent fraud in the
payment process. Uniquely, it can also
extend Verified by Visa and MasterCard
SecureCode payment guarantees of up
to 90 days – ideal when delivery or lead
times extend beyond the traditional
14 day authorisation cut-off.
