Nedbank Direct EFT Boosts Online Payments via Peach Payments

Nedbank Direct EFT is now available as a payment option on ecommerce websites that use Peach Payments, a leading South African payment gateway. 

Nedbank Direct EFT allows online shoppers to make secure and safe payments directly from their Nedbank bank account, without having to enter their card details or share bank login details on a merchant’s website.

We expect very quick adoption of Nedbank Direct EFT by businesses that want to offer their customers easy, safe payment options.

Peach Payments and Nedbank have worked closely over several years to help merchants grow their ecommerce businesses. This is another positive step toward the goal of opening up ecommerce to more consumers in a safe and reliable way.

Nedbank Direct EFT is an example of the technology trend known as open banking. This banking practice provides third-party financial service providers with open, permission-based access to consumer banking, as well as financial data such as transactions from financial institutions. It is widely considered a key way to democratise financial services, as it gives consumers more choices in how they manage their money.

Nedbank Direct EFT prioritises the safety of customers’ details while offering the convenience of an efficient payment method for Nedbank customers when shopping online or making bill payments. Nedbank is excited to provide a solution that brings our banking capabilities closer to our clients’ day-to-day activities.
