Hear from Amazon Payments, Callcredit, Retail Decisions and SecureTrading

Payment is the defining act that turns a ‘website’ into an eCommerce business. Taking customers’ money time and again, willingly and at a profit, is the core of sustainable business.

This seemingly simple task is fraught with problems (fraud, currency, costs) and the focus of great innovation (mobile payments, NFC, international relevance).

Our Payment and Fraud JumpStarts have, over the last two years, been a real hotbed of commercial insight, new developments and cutting edge approaches. What used to be a backoffice activity is now at the front of the business – assuring customers, offering them choice, improving efficiency and increasing profits.

We hope you can join us for this great topic, especially since this is the first JumpStart we’ll be running outside London. We’re really excited to be holding this event at the spectacular Manchester City Gallery which is opening especially for the event with a breakfast reception, then the presentations and plenty of time for questions, discussion and networking. See below for more information and details on the Jumpstart presentations and speakers.

Sponsors presenting will be:

SecureTrading

Speaker: Matt Shooman, Corporate Sales Manager
Title: Increase sales through an effective payments strategy
Synopsis: Whilst the high street has struggled, online has consistently grown. This doesn’t mean that online merchants don’t have their share of problems – low approval rates, cart abandonment and fraud are just a selection. Expanding internationally is another opportunity that’s also fraught with problems. SecureTrading will talk you through these issues and show how you can overcome them with an effective payments strategy.

Amazon

Speaker: Nick Griffiths
Title: Increasing Conversion at Checkout
Synopsis: Improving customer experience and usability throughout the purchase experience is critical to any retailer’s success with their online business. Increasing conversion at checkout continues to present a significant opportunity to grow sales. Amazon Payments is focused on streamlining the checkout process, providing convenience for customers and helping retailers realise their growth potential across channels. Here we will explore how the brand-conscious seller can provide a seamless shopping experience and optimise conversion

Retail Decisions

Title: The 10 most important things to consider in your fraud prevention programme

• The cost of fraud to the retail sector and current fraud trends
• 10 factors that impact a successful fraud prevention programme
• Case studies in fraud prevention

Callcredit

Speaker: David Fletcher, Business Development Manager, Callcredit
Title: Maximising your customer revenue whilst halting the fraudster
Synopsis: Online retailers often decline good orders and unnecessarily accept bad orders, resulting in lost revenue, increased charge-backs and increased manual processing. Online retailers want positive order verification, comprehensive fraud detection and fully automated solutions. Here, David and Mike will update you on fraud trends, outline an ideal acceptance solution and introduce CallValidate. They’ll also provide details on how to register for a free trial of CallValidate.
