eWAY Joins NetSuite SuitePayments Program To Provide Expanded Payment Choice For Businesses In Australia

SYDNEY, Oct. 29, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- NetSuite Inc. (NYSE: N), the industry's leading provider of cloud-based financials / ERP and omnichannel commerce software suites, today announced that eWAY, a global online payment gateway provider based in Australia, has joined the NetSuite SuitePayments program to offer businesses greater payment options when using the NetSuite SuiteCommerce platform. By partnering with eWAY, NetSuite continues to open the door for more Ecommerce, retail and wholesale distribution organisations to move their entire business to the industry's leading cloud-based business management suite, improving their operational efficiency and offering their customers a richly interactive and intuitive shopping experience.

Headquartered in Canberra, eWAY's leading online payment gateway offers an enterprise level payment solution that is tier 1 PCI-DSS compliant and allows businesses to accept secure credit card payments 24/7 from customers around the world, including card-not-present and Ecommerce transactions. eWAY has processed over 80 million credit cards since it was started by CEO Matt Bullock in 1998. It now processes over $300 million per month for its rapidly growing customer base of more than 13,300 merchants in Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Canada and the UK.

"Time to go live to market is critical for any Ecommerce business and any delays can be costly," said Matt Bullock, CEO and founder of eWAY. "By combining our leading payment gateway with the NetSuite SuiteCommerce platform, customers now have a solution to turn on online payments within days instead of weeks. Talking to the banks, gaining approvals and completing their forms is a painful process. As a one stop shop for merchants, eWAY makes this process much faster and easier."

eWAY's payment gateway solutions seamlessly interact with NetSuite SuiteCommerce to allow Australian businesses to accept credit card payments in real-time. The integrated payment gateway allows businesses to take full advantage of NetSuite SuiteCommerce payments functionality, including true Ecommerce checkout, customer invoice payments and phone orders. They can leverage a single eWAY account for multi-channel card processing with NetSuite, whether they take orders via a website, phone, mail or fax. eWAY plans to market NetSuite SuiteCommerce to its customer base in an effort to help them provide a seamless omnichannel experience.

NetSuite SuiteCommerce addresses key omnichannel challenges faced by Australian businesses and delivers critical business advantages, particularly the ability to manage multiple channels and locations. Organisations gain a 360-degree view into customer relationships, real-time data visibility and analytics, real-time inventory management, a dynamic web storefront, efficient order management, and multi-language and multi-website management. The platform also fulfills a strong demand for a single commerce solution that supports multiple customer touchpoints—from in-store point-of-sale (POS) to call centres and social media to online via desktops, laptops, smartphones and tablets.

"When it comes to payments, NetSuite recognises that organisations in Australia want to work with other local organisations that understand the local market, can support their particular needs and are available during their business hours," said Mark Troselj, managing director of APAC and Japan for NetSuite. "By partnering with eWAY, we continue to strengthen the NetSuite SuiteCommerce platform for local customers and demonstrate our commitment to the Australian retail sector. We can now offer businesses a much faster payment processing service with eWAY, which will really help them offer a better experience to their customers."
