Booking and payment confirmation representing online payments and e-commerce by First Glance Bahamas

Online payments & e-commerce

Get paid online. Securely.

We connect your website or app to local, regional and US banks through their available payment gateways and API providers, then build the checkout, security and store around it.

Based in Nassau. Working with clients across The Bahamas, the Caribbean, the US and beyond.

Is this for you?

Payments are the hard part. We handle it.

Taking cards online in The Bahamas and across the Caribbean means working with banks, gateways and their requirements. We’ve done it many times, and we work with US payment providers too. We set up the integration, prepare your platform for review and protect it once it’s live, so you can focus on selling.

Sound familiar?

  • Customers want to pay online, but you only take cash, transfers or in-store cards
  • Your bank’s merchant approval process feels confusing
  • Your checkout looks untrustworthy or breaks on mobile
  • You’ve seen suspicious test transactions or card attacks
  • Your online store and your stock are out of sync

If you nodded at any of these, we can help.

Questions

Good questions. Straight answers.

Something else on your mind? Ask us on WhatsApp.

Which banks can you work with?

We work with local, regional and US banks through their available payment gateways and API providers. The right option depends on your bank, your business and where your customers are, and we’ll walk you through it.

How long does merchant approval take?

Approval is decided by your bank, so timing varies. We prepare your platform to meet their requirements, which helps the review go smoothly.

What is a hosted payment page?

A secure payment page hosted by your payment gateway and styled to match your brand. Customers enter their card details there, so sensitive card data never touches your website’s server.

How do you protect against card attacks?

Card-testing attacks use bots to try stolen card numbers on your checkout. We add bot detection, rate limiting and fraud rules to stop them, and can monitor your platform on an ongoing basis.

Do you offer ongoing security monitoring?

Yes. We offer monitoring services that watch for suspicious payment and login activity and alert us early, so problems are dealt with quickly.

Can you connect my online store to my POS?

Often, yes. We’ve built custom POS integrations so online orders and in-store stock stay in sync. We’ll review your POS system first to confirm what’s possible.
