Alternative payment methods for global merchants

VaultPay supports merchants offering bank transfers, open banking, local payment methods, and region-specific options alongside card processing.

1

What this solution means

Alternative payment methods (APMs) are non-card payment options such as open banking, account-to-account transfers, e-wallets, and local schemes used in specific markets.

2

Who it is for

Merchants selling cross-border, in countries where cards have low share, or where customers prefer bank-based or wallet-based payments.

3

Why it matters

APMs reduce reliance on cards, lower processing costs, and lift conversion in markets where local methods dominate.

4

Common risks

Refund handling differences, settlement timing, and reconciliation complexity across multiple rails.

5

Compliance requirements

AML and consumer protection rules, plus scheme-specific terms for each method offered.
