We have just launched a major update to our payments infrastructure, now supporting Strong Customer Authentication. SCA is a fraud prevention directive requiring merchants in the European economic area to perform additional checks when processing payments online. From 14th September 2019, banks and card vendors will now require 3DSecure protection to be carried out for card payments.

We have had a very busy April at payhere HQ, launching and trialling many new features, such as our affiliate program, slack integration, support section and improvements to recurring payments, read on to find out more.

What a few weeks it has been, I’m still uncertain what day of the week it is. Days seem to merge into one long experience of getting some sleep, being awakened during the night and trying to fit in some amount of work in as well. Would I change anything? Absolutely not, it may seem contrived but I have loved every single minute of it!

Ben came to us wanting a SaaS payment integration with minimal effort — like any other startup he didn’t want to waste his development budget building something that is not core to the problem he’s solving, subscription payments. With PayHere Ben was able to get recurring revenue integrated with his platform in a matter of hours! I’ll briefly dive into the technical details of how we integrate with benmudge.com.

As part of running our software development agency we often advise clients to use off-the-shelf software when they can. This means their budget can be spent on truly delivering value to their business. It sometimes means we talk ourselves out of money but mostly means that we get to work on more interesting applications to integrate a bunch of services together and run at the heart of our client’s businesses.

5:15am- Monday 18th February, 2019.
I am wide awake, everything that runs through my head has put an end to any resemblance of a normal sleeping pattern for quite some time. This upcoming week is particularly interesting, my wife is one week overdue with our first child and my business partners and I are launching our first product, PayHere, on Product Hunt this week. Why spin one plate when you can try to spin several at once!
