Who can use GOpay?
Any business may use GOpay. To open a GOpay account a merchant will need an
approved 'online merchant number'. You must first register with GOpay and
incorporate GOpay into your web site. You can then apply to your bank to get an
online merchant number which will work on the GOpay/Camtech gateway. For
security reasons the bank will want to see and will need to approve of how
you have incorporated GOpay into your web site before they issue the
merchant number. There
is a GOpay payment mode to suit most types of businesses - tradespeople,
professionals, retailers, mobile service providers, associations, large
corporations, government departments, franchise groups and call centres, to
name just a few.
How do customers use
GOpay to pay for items?
Once a merchant has created a payment link (either as a BuyNow shopping cart
link on their web site or as a Bill Payment link) the customer simply clicks
the link to pay. The customer will go directly to the merchants secure
payment page on the GOpay server. The customer can add items to the GOpay
shopping basket and pay for all items at once. Using
Buy Now buttons you do not need a shopping basket unless you have
hundreds of items.
If you have your own shopping basket then GOpay will provide you with code
to connect your shopping basket to the payment gateway.

Online Merchant Number' from your bank that is approved for online
transactions.

American Express and Diners Club transactions?
No. You must have a separate 'online' merchant number from each of American
Express and Diners Club.

What is a Payment Gateway?
The Payment Gateway provides a secure encrypted connection from GOpay to the
Australian banking network for the processing of credit card transactions.
GOpay is specially licensed and approved to use the Camtech gateway for merchant transactions. All
transactions are conducted in the name of the merchant. GOpay is merely a
part of the pipeline and does not become involved in handling the
transaction proceeds at any point.
I have an EFTPOS Merchant Number from my bank. Can I use this with GOpay?
No. You must have an 'online' merchant approval from your bank specifically
able to be used on the GOpay/Camtech payment gateway.
When do
I receive the cleared funds from transactions?
The sum of all approved credit card transactions (settlement) is credited to
your nominated bank account overnight, on the day of the transaction.
Can
operators process refunds to credit cards using GOpay?
Yes, but every refund must be made to the originating credit card and must
use the RRN number issued with the original charge transaction. Refunds
cannot be processed without the RRN number. You cannot refund more than has
been charged to that card. As a security measure, you may also set maximum
dollar values for refunds for each operator authority level. This is done in
your GOpay Payment Management Centre under Site Options.
How
long does it take to get my GOpay account approved?
Once we have received your online application, payment and fax confirmation
form, we will usually have your account open within 24 to 48 hours. You are
then issued with username and password access to explore and utilise the
tools on your web site. You will be provided with access to a staging area
within the gateway which will allow you to learn and test your systems. You
can then apply for a 'Camtech Online Merchant Number' from
your bank to enable you to take payments live using the payment gateway.
When you are ready to 'go live' you advise us and we will connect you using
your 'online merchant number'. This will then route in real time cleared
credit card funds direct into your bank account protected by our 128 bit SSL
encryption key. GOpay are trained and licensed by Camtech to organise this
for you.
Can I get
a refund from GOpay if I close my account?
No. The payment gateway license fee and monthly network access fees are
non-refundable. Transaction charges will apply to all transactions processed
via the payment gateway.
When are GOpay fees payable?
The payment gateway license fee is payable prior to activating your account.
Monthly fees are charged to your credit card at the end of each month.
Do I need
my own security certificate to use GOpay?
No. We will allow you to use the GOpay 128 bit SSL encryption secure
payment system through any of the GOpay payment modes.
How reliable is GOpay?
GOpay is very reliable with uptime of over 99% each month through the secure
Payment Gateway.
How secure is GOpay?
We use 128-bit SSL encryption for all data transmissions, providing maximum
protection for your data. Additionally, all data is housed on our industrial
strength servers, located in a secure environment and protected by the use
of server firewalls with diesel generator backup in case of power failure.
