Ecommpay Unveils Innovative Italian Payments Suite to Fuel E-Commerce Growth
Ecommpay, a leading global payments platform, is set to enhance its support for international e-commerce merchants looking to penetrate the Italian market. This innovative launch addresses a significant hurdle for online retailers expanding into Italy: the need for localized payment options.
Why Localized Payment Options Matter for E-commerce in Italy
Research by Ecommpay indicates that the lack of familiar payment methods can lead to basket abandonment, where customers abandon their purchases when their preferred payment options are unavailable. This is particularly concerning for online sellers aiming to thrive in the competitive Italian e-commerce landscape.
Ecommpay’s Comprehensive Payment Solutions
Founded with a vision to simplify global payments, Ecommpay provides a robust suite of services, including:
- Acquiring
- Card Processing
- Alternative Payment Methods (APMs)
These services support businesses across various industries, ensuring both local and cross-border transactions are seamless. The platform emphasizes integration, fraud prevention, and conversion optimization.
Introducing Ecommpay’s Italian Market Solution
The new solution for the Italian market offers merchants access to a comprehensive range of local and global payment methods, including:
- Satispay
- MyBank
- BANCOMAT Pay
These options complement standard card payments and bank transfers, allowing merchants to create a holistic checkout experience. Notably, Ecommpay’s dynamic payment choice feature can boost acceptance rates by 2–3%, while incorporating local APMs can reduce transaction costs for merchants.
The E-commerce Landscape in Italy
Italy’s e-commerce market is thriving, with a B2C value estimated at $51 billion. Italian consumers spend an average of $1,007 annually online. Remarkably, 69% of online transactions in Italy utilize alternative digital payment methods. Key statistics include:
- E-wallets: 35% of online payments
- Credit/Debit Cards: 31% of online payments
- Mobile Commerce: 40% of purchases made via mobile devices
Enhancing User Experience with Multilingual Support
Ecommpay’s platform also allows payment pages to be displayed in up to 160 languages, automatically adjusting to the customer’s IP address or device language. This feature significantly enhances the local shopping experience for international customers.
