I’ve recently came across a payment processor that charges 2.9% per transaction to US merchants and 3.5% for U.K.

It seems to offer next day deposits and the set up process was surprisingly simple. Not sure how to actually integrate it into my shopify store , as they don’t appear under the “Third Party Payment Providers Section”

Here is the link, and if anyone has had experience with them in the past, i’m interested to hear your thoughts as I’m not sure how they handle large volume.

You made a good find bro. One of the guys that founded it used to work at Google Payments. So, yeah it is a good tool.

To integrate it into your shopify store, just email the support center or search for "flutterwave shopify integration", you will find a community discussion in which they gave the link which when clicked on will redirect you to shopify. Once there, you can set it to be a primary payment method.

To be clear, the last time I checked the offer for next day deposits is for African currencies. All others take 5 days precisely.

What's more?

Their method of processing credit and debit cards makes sure that none of your customers credit card is rejected due to blacklisted IPS or all the other technical information that Stripe checks before approving a transaction.

Why is that?

They send a one time password to the mobile phone of the card holder for the first time the card info appears through your store. The As far as I know, this is a better method of preventing fraud rather than checking IP, MAC address and all worth not.

Other perks?

If you create an account there, you can generate virtual credit cards at will and see your customers device fingerprints.

Do I recommend them? Yes! I use it on my main project.


Goodluck

Thank You my man!

Just found that link :)

Have you ever experienced any surprise holds with them or other major issues?
 
No. Not at all.

Having said that, there is something very important which you have to note. After creating your account and uploading the necessary documents, you need to get in contact with the customer care via phone or email. Preferably phone. This is so that they can verify your account faster.

An unverified account can't withdraw. Your money will stay there unaffected until the verification is done. And their verification process is not strict at all. After that, the payment is now in auto mode.

Great, thank you.

I did encouter one issue. Is there a way to change the settlement currency? I'm a UK sole trader that has a US bank account, and most of my business is in USD. So I would ideally need to change my settlement currency from GBP to USD
 
Yes, it is very possible to do that cause I just checked it online. But I suggest you contact the customer care.

Do they allow dropshipping? How long have you been with them?

Would you be able to send me a link to the place that you found that information? A customer service rep has just told me I can only charge in my local currency lol.
 
First mistake is posting about it on Black Hat World. Now it's only a matter of time before they shut down.
 
I have been using Flutterwave since 2018 and still use them to accept payments even in my marketplace thread here in BlackHatWorld.

I think they are good payment processor. But let's not be too excited as we cannot rely 100% on any payment processor.

Are you able to accept payments in multiple currencies?

Currently all my payments are converting into GBP , when I want them to stay in USD

Yes mine is in USD. Yo have to set it via each payment link. That's what I do. Set it according to your preferred currency.

I’ve been looking at their payment links and am slightly confused as to how I would integrate them for customers to pay for products on my shopify store
