CardEasy Digital launches the global one-stop shop for card payment security in multi-channel contact centers

LONDON, April 21, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- With CardEasy Digital, contact center agents can generate single-use secure html payment links or QR codes. The agent sends the link to the customer via any digital communication channel. This provides the customer with access to a secure payment page (served by CardEasy) which they complete with their payment card details. The customer can complete this page on any device which is connected to the internet, including computers, laptops, tablets and smart phones.

Once the customer has clicked the link or scanned the QR code to open the payment page on their device, CardEasy Digital works in a choice of two modes:

1.    The agent remains connected to the customer (e.g. via webchat) to support them through to transaction completion. CardEasy Digital provides the agent with real-time visibility of the customer's progress - from opening the secure payment page to entering their card numbers (only visible to the agent as asterisks) and completing the transaction.
2.    'Fire and forget', for instance via e-mail or SMS, where the agent sends the customer the secure link and then moves on to other tasks without tracking the customer's progress.

The captured card data is securely submitted to the merchant's payment services provider by CardEasy for authorization, as with CardEasy's voice solutions. The transaction is completed in the usual manner and communicated back via CardEasy in real-time to the merchant's back office systems and to the agent (if they are still connected).
Real-time reporting ensures that the effectiveness of using secure payment links can be tracked, with analytics to allow further data interrogation, such as successful and abandoned payments, as well as those which are part-completed and might benefit from direct follow-up.

Payment links can be set to expire at a chosen time or duration or be left without a time limit.
CardEasy Digital does not require integration with the merchant's payment application and is already integrated with a large number of leading payment gateways, which allows for rapid deployment, PCI DSS compliance and customer re-assurance across the entire contact centre operation within days.

"CardEasy Digital marks the latest evolution in Syntec's provision of global secure payment services for organizations handling payments in their contact centers" commented Danny Cresswell, Syntec's Chief Sales Officer on the launch. "CardEasy now offers a one-stop shop for payment security across all contact center channels. With so many merchants currently forced to locate contact center staff remotely due to the COVID-19 pandemic, CardEasy Digital provides a quick, cost- effective solution for remote workers to handle payments, which can be used in conjunction with the CardEasy Voice Channel payment solutions".
