    Setup Payment Gateways - Bank Transfer, Cheque, Cash & PayPal


      Article summary

      By default, every reseller account includes our 'PayExpress' module that offers credit card payments for your clients, accepting all major credit cards, such as Visa, Mastercard and American Express. This option has no fees from Dreamscape Networks to either you or your clients. We will automatically add your Reseller business name as the payment description, so your clients will only see this business name on their credit card statement. Please note that this payment gateway is located in Singapore, and very few overseas banks may charge a foreign transaction fee.


      You can also setup an alternative payment method of Paypal for your clients to pay you directly instead. With this setup, your client will pay into your PayPal directly with the settings and methods you have setup with PayPal. Please contact PayPal to setup a merchant account and to identify any fees you may incur. 

      Important:

      Please see our Transactions & Profit page as to how profit is calculated depending on your chosen payment gateway. 


      Adding the PayPal Gateway


      A 'business' or 'merchant' PayPal account is required to accept payments on your PayPal account, please see this article on how to upgrade a personal account.

      Adding Bank Transfer, Cheque or Cash Options


      You can also setup options for your clients to pay you in Bank Transfer, Cheque or Cash options. With these options enabled, we will provide your clients with the bank details or instructions on your checkout page and emailed to them with an unpaid invoice. Their products will not be activated until you are have received the payments on your end and when you mark the order as paid in your Reseller Console.

      To setup these payments, please refer to the instructions below:

      Cheque & Cash

      As well as the normal cheque and cash process, these options can also be used if you would like to setup your own payment methods or gateway and only require your client to put in the order first. For example if your client pays you directly by any means, they can submit their order as cash and then you mark off the order as paid once they have paid you in your preferred method. We will provide your client with all the instructions needed within the Special Instructions box.
