Global FinTech platform Airwallex announces the opening of its Shopify Airwallex Online Payments App. Merchants can incorporate the Online Payments App, a payment gateway plugin, into their online business to take payments from customers all over the world.

The payment acceptance solution from Airwallex, which accepts a variety of payment ways, is used to provide this new app. Along with 30+ other regional payment options from Asia-Pacific and Europe, such as GrabPay in Southeast Asia, WeChat Pay in APAC, and Bancontact and Sofort in Europe, these payment options include bank cards from Visa, MasterCard, and UnionPay.

“We are excited that our online payment acceptance solution will now be available on Shopify, helping merchants create a seamless payment journey on their online store,”

“Our app is one of many offerings we have built to help merchants accept cross-border payments. In this case, by using an Airwallex account, merchants can gain secure access to a multitude of payment methods, both globally and locally, in a convenient, fast and affordable way possible.”

                                                             Ravi Adusumilli, SVP of Partnerships at Airwallex.

Airwallex merchants are able to take payments from customers all over the world and can also get settlements in 7+ major currencies, including the US dollar, preventing the need for costly currency conversions and associated costs. Additionally, businesses have the option of accepting payments straight into their Airwallex multi-currency wallets and disbursing funds via Borderless Cards or Transfers.
