How to integrate mobile money payment with WooCommerce

E-commerce is experiencing constant growth in Benin. Yet many online merchants continue to face a major challenge: integrating Mobile Money payments into their online stores.

The payment solutions available on the market are mainly offered by payment aggregators. Although these platforms contribute to the development of the sector, their access conditions are often considered restrictive by many entrepreneurs: high integration fees, high commissions on transactions, complex administrative procedures, legal requirements that are sometimes difficult to meet for small businesses or beginner web traders.

This situation has led several e-commerce project leaders to abandon or delay the launch of their online stores because they are unable to offer a payment method adapted to their customers.

● Till PayTech: Economical and less restrictive online mobile money payment.

Payment gateways Mobile Money developed by Till PayTech are intended for small and medium-sized businesses with a woocommerce store and wanting a simple, secure payment method without technical and administrative complexity to facilitate access to mobile money payment for their customers.

These different payment solutions have been designed to integrate directly with WooCommerce stores and allow Beninese customers to make their payments via the main operators Mobile Money from Benin.

● Why Use Till PayTech to integrate Mobile Money into your online store?

Mobile Money represents one of the most used payment methods in Benin. A large part of the population has a Mobile Money account while the use of bank cards remains relatively limited. Allowing customers to pay directly with their telephone number has several advantages:

1. Avoid cart abandonment and increase sales

A customer who finds their preferred payment method is more likely to complete their order. The integration of Mobile Money thus helps to reduce cart abandonment.

2. Simplify the shopping experience

Consumers do not need a credit card or bank account. A few clicks are enough to make payment.

3. Gain credibility with your customers

A store that offers MTN Mobile Money, Moov Money or Celtiis Money payments inspires more confidence among buyers in Benin as well as in the sub-region.

4. Receive payments instantly

Transactions are typically processed in real time, allowing the merchant to receive payment from their customers instantly and thus confirm orders to improve their customer service.
