Ecommerce Platforms
Glow are fully accredited NOP Commerce partners and specialists in this trusted, robust platform. We work with a range of alternatives if you prefer.
Simple Payment Solutions
Often, early stage businesses prefer to work with PayPal or a similar simple solution. Although the fees may be high per transaction, the lack of standing or ongoing fees can be an attractive way to get started. The lack of customisation may become a problem and often, more mature businesses need a more featured solution.


Payment Service Providers (PSP’s)
When you need control of the checkout recommend using a third party Payment Service Provider such as Secure Trading or Worldpay which will allow us to control the look and feel of the on screen payment process. You'll also be able to obtain better rates per transaction. Glow are happy to advise and help you get the best arrangement with your PSP and acquirer.
Payment Models
Most payment systems are based on simple checkout billing but sometimes, perhaps with subscriptions, there's a need for recurring payments. Glow will help you understand the best approach for your business and navigate the difficulties of getting set up to receive funds.


Payments Through App Stores
Using inbuilt payment systems for iOS or Android has advantages, particularly frictionless payment. Apple for example already have verified card details, identity verified and contract in place with their users, so you can make use of one touch purchase. Be aware though that within the apple ecosystem, apple make the rules and typically command 30% commission on your sale. In some circumstances, Apple will not permit merchants to sell. Glow will help you navigate through the options and choose the best for your business.
