Integrated Commerce, Multi-Currency Payment Processing, ERP and CRM Gives B2B and B2C Merchants Competitive Advantage in Asia
SINGAPORE, Oct. 17, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- NetSuite Inc. (NYSE: N), the industry's leading provider of cloud-based financials / ERP software suites, today announced a partnership with AsiaPay, that integrates its PayDollar eCommerce payment gateway and merchant services with the NetSuite SuiteCommerce platform. With comprehensive support for major international credit cards, NetSuite's SuiteCommerce customers can benefit from AsiaPay's extensive reach throughout Asia, leveraging over 40 currencies and more than 40 banks and payment partners in nine countries through multiple channels and multiple languages, as well as its ePayAlert advanced fraud detection solution. Upon completion of the integration, the benefits of AsiaPay's PayDollar eCommerce payment gateway for credit card transactions will be available to NetSuite customers, in conjunction with NetSuite's powerful commerce, sales, service and ERP functionality, without the need to adopt additional software or change their business processes.
Founded in 2000, AsiaPay is a leading electronic payment solution provider, with headquarters in Hong Kong and offices in mainland China, Taiwan, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Philippines, Vietnam, India and rapidly expanding into new Asia Pacific markets. It delivers advanced, secured and integrated electronic payment processing solutions and services to various leading banks and over 3,000 merchants across Asia. AsiaPay also offers a variety of payment solutions that are multi-currency, multi-lingual, multi-card and multi-channel, together with advanced fraud detection.
The native integration between NetSuite and AsiaPay should create particular advantages for companies that have already embraced NetSuite's new SuiteCommerce platform. SuiteCommerce improves interactions with other businesses and directly with consumers via a cloud platform, delivering an enhanced customer experience through multiple touchpoints, directly on the core NetSuite ERP/CRM business management application. This technology transcends the limitations and complexity of first-generation eCommerce systems to deliver new efficiencies for merchants and a superior experience for customers. SuiteCommerce's omnichannel selling approach can be complemented by AsiaPay's extensive support for eCommerce, m-commerce, mail order and call centre payment channels.
"Rising incomes and a growing middle class has seen rapid adoption of eCommerce throughout Asia," said Craig Sullivan, vice president and general manager, International for NetSuite. "Our partnership with AsiaPay is expected to offer retailers a complete commerce solution, with NetSuite's cloud-based SuiteCommerce platform at its core, largely taking care of all the components needed for a successful multi-channel business spanning the Asia Pacific region."
AsiaPay's PayDollar eCommerce payment gateway service allows businesses of any size to securely accept credit card payments in real-time. Once registered and approved by AsiaPay, a merchant can accept payments from a wide range of credit cards, leveraging over 40 currencies through multiple channels and multiple languages, with a single account. It is supported by AsiaPay's ePayAlert comprehensive online fraud prevention solution, which protects banks, payment service providers and merchants from the risks associated with card-not-present transactions. It fully processes and checks online payment transactions automatically using extensive dynamic rules, with real-time fraud reporting and alert support.
"The integration of our payment gateway with NetSuite's SuiteCommerce platform, is expected to give B2B and B2C merchants in Asia a complete solution for processing credit card transactions from multiple touchpoints, whether it be online, from a tablet device or over the phone," said Joseph Chan, CEO of AsiaPay. "This is crucial as retailers are increasingly turning to multi-channel retailing as a new revenue source in this highly competitive market."
