Order payment is one of the most crucial parts of completing promo orders. But many promo professionals rely on antiquated systems when there's an easier way – one you can take advantage of by being an ASI member. Learn six simple ways you can make online payments easier and more efficient for you and your customers.

#1 - CHOOSE A PAYMENT PROGRAM DESIGNED FOR THE PROMO INDUSTRY

The most common mistake distributors and suppliers make is not using a payment system designed specifically for the promo industry. As all promo professionals know, our industry is unique and has many nuances that not all payment systems are prepared for. That's why it's recommended to work with a payment company that was tailor-made for promo, such as PromoPayment. This company was created specifically to meet the needs of distributors and suppliers just like you. Plus, they're proud to have been an ASI partner for almost 10 years.

And the best part? Not only does their system speak to promo, their representatives understand the industry too, so you can get help without having to explain background industry info first. This will save you time and prevent headaches.

#2 - PROVIDE A USER-FRIENDLY EXPERIENCE FOR END-BUYERS

You're not the only one who has to use your order payment system – your customers have to interact with it too, making it wise to invest in a payment platform with a user-friendly interface. Think about it: If you encountered a difficult checkout process when shopping online, would you order from that company again? The same applies to your promo business.

PromoPayment understands this, so they've implemented a handful of easy-to-use tools that make the payment process a piece of cake. For example, with PromoPayment, you can create QuickClick links in less than a minute, which will link your customers directly to a secure payment page – no searching necessary. Plus, customers can save credit card information in a vault for an even speedier checkout process on repeat orders.
