For those unfamiliar with us, we are a leading payment orchestration platform. Our solution sits above your existing payment providers, intelligently selecting the best provider and payment method for each transaction to enhance approval rates. With a single integration, NjiaPay manages routing, automated retries, and comprehensive reporting, allowing your team to focus on business while we optimise payment performance in the background. Below, we outline the key enhancements we introduced during Q3. ## **1. Expanded Payment Method Support** In response to evolving customer preferences, such as the growing adoption of instant bank payments and mobile wallets for recurring transactions, NjiaPay has expanded its payment method portfolio. We’ve also enabled card acceptance in a new geographic market. - **Added support for instant bank payments via ABSA Pay and PayShap,** allowing customers to transact directly from their banking apps without a physical card. - **Apple Pay and Google Pay are now available for recurring payments,** so subscription and repeat-billing customers can use their preferred digital wallets. - **NjiaPay now supports card payment acceptance in Nigeria,** facilitating seamless expansion for merchants targeting this important market. Because NjiaPay functions as an orchestration layer, you can access all newly supported payment methods through your existing integration, eliminating the need for additional development work. ## **2. Reducing Payment Failures and Lost Sales** Payment declines don't always reflect customer issues; often, they result from suboptimal payment routing. This quarter, NjiaPay improved its routing intelligence to reduce preventable declines further and increase completed transactions. - **Enhanced retry logic:** When a payment attempt fails, we analyse the cause and intelligently select the most promising alternative route or provider, increasing the likelihood of successful completion. - **Card-type-aware routing:** NjiaPay now identifies card types in advance, directing transactions to the payment provider with the highest approval probability for that specific card. - **Upgraded processor integrations:** We've migrated our connections with South Africa's leading payment processors to their latest technology stacks, ensuring transactions run on the most advanced and reliable systems available. This is payment orchestration in action: NjiaPay autonomously determines the optimal path for each transaction, relieving merchants of the complexity involved in managing multiple providers and routing strategies. ## **3. Accelerated and Streamlined Checkout Experience** Every extra step at checkout gives a shopper time to change their mind. These updates remove steps. - **One-tap wallet payments for returning customers.** Shoppers who've paid with Apple Pay or Google Pay before can pay again in a single tap. - **Apple Pay at the top of the list.** It now appears first among payment options, where shoppers look first. - **One-click checkout on Shopify.** Shopify shoppers with a saved card can complete their purchase in one click. - **Clear messages when something goes wrong.** Instead of a generic error, shoppers see what happened and what to do next. A shopper who understands the problem is far more likely to try again than leave. ## **4. Enhanced Payment Visibility and Insights** Operational transparency is critical to effective payment management. This quarter, NjiaPay’s dashboard enhancements empower finance and operations teams with immediate, self-serve access to detailed payment insights—eliminating the need for external support and enabling more informed decision-making. - We've introduced comprehensive analytics to the dashboard, providing an at-a-glance overview of key payment performance metrics. - The platform now delivers specific failure reasons for all unsuccessful payment attempts, ensuring your team can quickly identify and address underlying issues. - Automated alerts for bank transfer discrepancies promptly notify your team when a customer underpays or overpays, allowing for proactive resolution before reconciliation challenges arise. ## **5. Scalability, Security, and Reliability for Growth** We have implemented critical infrastructure improvements to ensure consistent payment processing performance during peak demand, such as major sales events like Black Friday. - We have optimised payment notification systems for speed and reliability, ensuring updates from NjiaPay are delivered to your systems promptly, even at high transaction volumes. - NjiaPay has successfully achieved PCI DSS Level 1 re-certification, reaffirming compliance with the highest security standards for payment card data protection. - User management within the merchant portal has been enhanced, giving administrators greater control over individual team members' access and permissions. - System-wide optimisations have reduced processing times across the platform, delivering a noticeably faster, more efficient payment experience for your customers. ## **What's next** That's 17 updates in one quarter, and Q4 is already moving. If you're an existing merchant, speak to your account manager about switching on any of the features above.
