Payment Gateway Support
Take payments online with confidence
Payment Gateway Support
Taking payments online should be simple for your customers and reliable for you. We set up and troubleshoot payment gateways such as PayFast, Yoco, Ozow, Peach Payments and PayPal on WordPress and WooCommerce websites, so customers can pay by card, instant EFT and other methods with confidence.
When payments fail or orders do not update, we find the cause and get money flowing again.

Choosing a payment gateway
South African businesses have several good options for online payments, each with different fees, payout times and payment methods. Some suit small shops and once-off payments, while others are better for high volumes or subscriptions. We help you compare options and set up the gateway that suits your business and customers.
- Card payments (Visa and Mastercard)
- Instant EFT
- Mobile and QR payments
- Payment links for quotes and invoices
Why payments fail
Payment problems are often caused by incorrect API keys, missing payment notification settings, SSL issues, outdated plugins or conflicts with other checkout extensions. Sometimes payments go through but your website never hears about it, so orders stay pending. We trace each step from checkout to confirmation and fix the weak link.
A checkout customers trust
Customers abandon checkouts that look unfamiliar, ask for too much information or show security warnings. We streamline your checkout, display recognised payment logos, make sure the padlock shows and keep forms short. A smooth checkout can make a noticeable difference to completed orders.
Payments beyond online shops
Not every business needs a full online shop. We can add simple pay-now buttons, payment links on quotes and deposit payments for bookings or services, connected to your existing payment provider. This makes it easier for customers to pay you quickly and reduces time spent chasing payments.
Choosing a payment gateway
South African businesses can choose from several payment gateways, including PayFast, Yoco, Ozow, Peach Payments and PayGate. They differ in fees, payout times, supported payment methods such as card, instant EFT and SnapScan, and how well they integrate with your website. We help you compare the options and choose a gateway that suits your customers and your cash flow.
Testing before going live
Before switching on a new gateway or making changes, we run test transactions in sandbox mode, check successful, failed and cancelled payments, and confirm that order statuses and emails update correctly. This careful testing protects your customers and your revenue from payment problems.
Fixing failed payments and missing orders
Customers who pay but do not receive an order confirmation quickly lose trust. These problems are usually caused by incorrect notification URLs, security settings, outdated plugins or server issues. We trace each payment from your website to the gateway and back, fix the cause and reconcile any affected orders, so your records match your bank statements and customers receive the right confirmations.
