MeS utilises Acculynk’s PaySecure software-only service for online PIN debit transactions. PaySecure is now available through a single interface into the Merchant e-Solutions payment platform or to any merchant as a standalone payment method.

Merchant e-Solutions claimed that the new feature offers merchants the benefit of lower interchange fees, reduced fraud and fewer chargebacks, while providing their customers the convenience of paying with debit cards and using their bank issued PINs.

Moreover, merchants using the MeS platform are able to offer internet customers a range of domestic and international payment choices, including credit, online PIN debit and other alternative payments.

MeS’s internet-based services include PCI compliant payment processing solutions tailored specifically for online merchants, including the MeS payment gateway and virtual terminal, plus an web-based reporting platform that provides access to over five years of processing history.

Sharif Bayyari, CEO of Merchant e-Solutions, said: “As the popularity of shopping on the internet increases and the consumer preference for debit expands, merchants are looking for solutions to leverage more cost effective e-commerce payment alternatives.”
