Gala Technology has teamed up with Xero, a provider of online accounting software, to introduce SOTpay onto the Xero Marketplace.
Through adding SOTpay, a cloud-based payment platform that enables businesses to accept card payments across various channels and devices, Xero will hope to tackle businesses struggling with slow bank transfers and complex reconciliation processes.
Steve Biggs, CTO of Gala Technology, remarked: “By combining Gala Technology’s innovative payment solutions with Xero’s comprehensive accounting platform, we’re setting a new standard for business efficiency. SOTpay’s integration with Xero is a game-changer, automating reconciliation and ensuring that finances are always up to date.”
SOTpay aims to enhance business operations with three main features. Firstly, the platform looks to keep transactions secure, preventing fraud. Secondly, SOTpay supports various payment channels, providing flexibility for businesses and customers.
Additionally, the platform’s PCI compliance and adaptable payment links aim to offer convenience and security to Xero.
Chris Evans, BDM at Gala Technology, said: “Our partnership with Xero and the introduction of SOTpay on their marketplace means businesses can now offer their customers a secure, flexible, and convenient payment experience. This not only enhances customer satisfaction but also fosters trust and loyalty.”
This deal follows on from when the firm partnered with Nuapay and Apple Pay last October. The partnership aimed to enhance SOTpay, adding a streamlined payments approach and reduced error margin through Nuvei’s Open Banking and mobile payments integration with all iOS devices via Apple Pay.
Jason Mace, CEO of Gala Technology, stated: “This collaboration with Xero is more than just partnership; it’s a commitment to empowering businesses. We believe that by making SOTpay available on the Xero Marketplace, we’re not only solving immediate financial challenges but also paving the way for future innovations in business management.”
