Secure Trading and their merchant acquiring arm acquiring.com have been taken on by online horse racing tips powerhouse freeracingtips.co.uk to provide payment gateway and merchant services for online memberships.

With a community of over 79,000 members who enjoy daily researched horse racing insight, freeracingtips.co.uk were looking for a gateway and acquiring provider to help them handle their repeat payment subscription engine for monthly and annual membership packages.

Secure Trading/acquiring.com worked closely with the team at freeracingtips.co.uk to assess their goals and devise a payments strategy that will help them to achieve these. A major advantage of Secure Trading’s gateway was the WooCommerce plug-in that they were able to offer for recurring payment functionality.

“Secure Trading’s payment services came highly recommended to us through contacts from the gaming industry who have enjoyed the reliability and flexibility of Secure Trading’s integrated payment system in the past,” Kirsty Jones, MD at freeracingtips.co.uk said. “In order to connect as closely as possible with our paying online community we need to make sure that our transaction process is fast, simple and secure – Secure Trading and acquiring.com will ensure this.”

“We provide payment solutions to a diverse range of merchants; freeracingtips.co.uk proposition was slightly different to the types of merchants that we’ve worked with in the past, but it was simple enough to adapt our payment tools for the business,” Craig Brightly, Head of Sales at Secure Trading added. “Given the ‘community’ focus of the website and its services, it’s essential that we make customers feel as secure as possible while making payments. With 3D Secure transactions and enhanced transaction monitoring, we are able to achieve this.”
