PayPal has introduced PayPal ACDC (Advanced Credit and Debit Card), a modern solution designed to improve your payment systems' efficiency, security, and flexibility. This article compares PayPal Standard and PayPal ACDC and highlights the business benefits of upgrading.
Switching to PayPal ACDC provides several concrete advantages that can directly improve your business operations and customer experience:
A Better Checkout Experience for Your Customers
Benefit: PayPal ACDC integrates directly into your Jumbula checkout, allowing customers to complete payments without leaving your site. This results in a more professional, seamless experience, reducing confusion and abandoned carts, which can directly boost your conversion rates.
Lower Processing Fees, More Savings for Your Business
Benefit: PayPal ACDC charges 2.59% + $0.49 per transaction, compared to 2.99% + $0.49 with PayPal Standard. This fee reduction can add up quickly, especially for businesses processing a high volume of payments, resulting in significant cost savings over time.
Improved Payment Security, Reduced Risk
Benefit: With PayPal ACDC, your customer’s payment data is protected by enhanced encryption and secure data storage. This improves trust in your platform and reduces the risk of costly security incidents, helping you maintain a solid reputation with your customers.
More Payment Options for Customers, Leading to Higher Conversions
Benefit: Flexible payment methods like Venmo, Pay Later, and standard credit/debit cards give customers more ways to pay. This increases the likelihood of completing a sale, caters to different preferences, and ensures you never miss a potential transaction due to limited payment options.
Venmo Integration Included at No Extra Cost
Benefit: Venmo is increasingly popular, especially among younger, mobile-savvy customers. With PayPal ACDC, Venmo is automatically included without extra steps or fees. This lets you offer a payment method that many customers prefer, helping you reach a broader audience.
In addition to the core benefits of PayPal ACDC, Jumbula clients also gain access to:
Fraud Detection: The fraud prevention tools help protect your business and customers from fraudulent transactions.
Deeper Transaction Data and Analytics: Gain access to detailed transaction data and insights to help you track payments and analyze performance.
PayPal Express Checkout: Offers a quicker, simplified payment option for customers, improving their overall checkout experience.
