Posted in E-commerce, Payment Gateway, Paypal at 5:12 pm by malcolm

Congratulation to our team member - Sunzi Lim, for successfully pass the test and now is officially a Paypal Certified Developer. This is another credential adding to neowave e-commerce team as we strive best to provide the best e-commerce solution to our business clients.

As you can see on the list, Sunzi, unfortunately, is not the first Paypal Certified Developer from Malaysia. Voon Chong has been a step quicker. Still, there’s only 2 Paypal Certified Developer in Malaysia so far and we know both of them!

okok. we better leave him alone for now as he’s busy working on Paypal Express Checkout, to be built into webShaper e-commerce - our de facto search engine friendly shopping cart software products!

Do you know Paypal is setting up their International Support (International means anything but US / UK) at Singapore?

So they are actually not too far from us in Malaysia. :) For those in johor, it’s even nearer. In the event Paypal block your account without any reasons, at least now you can take a cheap flight to Singapore and do something like this to them ( ;>

Disclaimer: We do not condone any violent act and we will NOT take responsibility for your “art work” as a result of reading this blog post. Bear in mind Singapore Cops are very efficient bunch.

Last but not least, we have news from paypal insider that Paypal might be able to supports withdrawals to Malaysia Business Bank Account in coming 6 ~ 9 months time (hopefully this time is for real…)! keep your finger crossed!

WorldPay now supports Paypal

Posted in E-commerce, Paypal, webShaper at 12:38 pm by adrianoh

Just when you think they are actually competing payment gateways, now WorldPay has integrated Paypal as one of the payment options in their standard payment gateway services.

2Checkout, one of the payment gateways that works for local merchant selling internationally, has been supporting paypal since 2007.

Interestingly, Paypal appear more and more “Visa” and “Mastercard” like.  If their growth continue at such a fast-pace rate, especially in the International Markets, soon the below icon will become a standard at most of website that takes online payment. (i predict in 5 years time).

The apparent different is, with Paypal, you don’t actually need a card.

Don’t be surprised if you find Paypal in Malaysia Payment Gateways (Eg iPay88 & nbepay ) soon in not too distanced future (we hope).

Selling Online using Paypal Storefront Widget

Posted in E-commerce, Payment Gateway, Paypal at 10:21 am by adrianoh

Not too long ago, Paypal launched the Paypal Storefront Widget, a virtual storefront that allows anyone (with a Paypal Account) to easily sell online, by embedding a storefront widget on any web sites - be it your blog, website, social networking profile page, or just about anywhere that accepts HTML code.

With this simple tool, Now everyone can really sell online (just like how AirAsia motto: “Now everyone can fly“), all you need are

1) a blog (we recommend blogspot or wordpress) or a facebook profile page or a simple website
2) a paypal account (don’t have it yet? Sign Up now for a Paypal Account, verify it using your Credit Card)
- if you are Malaysian, read more on how to transfer the Paypal balance to Malaysia Bank Account and turn it into Cold Hard Cash that you can spend us a nice meal for tipping you >:)

See the live sample below
===================

So, does it mean that neowave will be out-of-business soon? Well, far from true, :) if you are serious business merchant, you will want to go for a commercial grade e-commerce software like webShaper e-commerce to better manage and market your storefront.
