Telegram boosts payments with ECOMMPAY integration

By Megha Bhattacharya

ECOMMPAY today announced that it has integrated with Telegram in a bid to allow users to make in-app purchases via Telegram Bots, powered by ECOMMPAY. The new payments will provide businesses with access to a new sales channel, enabling them to unlock more revenue, improve audience engagement, and build stronger brand loyalty thanks to a more seamless interface and transaction process.

Paul Marcantonio, Executive Director of ECOMMPAY, commented, “There’s rarely an ‘off the shelf’ solution for companies integrating payments, as every customer is different and there has to be a balance between the merchant’s and the customer’s needs. Seamless transactions and a great user experience are a vitally important part of improving conversion rates in business, and by integrating with Telegram we’ll help more businesses increase their revenues and audience engagement.”

The new development will allow users to select a product or service from their Telegram channel bot and click the ‘pay’ button. The Telegram bot automatically creates an invoice and enables the shopper to proceed to the checkout form, where the user enters payment card data unless this has been previously saved. Once the payment is completed, the buyer is redirected to the Telegram business channel.

Businesses working with ECOMMPAY benefit from open access to all of its payment products and technologies through one single integration, more than 100 payment methods including Apple Pay and Google Pay, reliable payment processing 24/7, flexible payment solutions customised to business needs, fraud protection, and personal customer support.
