In order to accept online payments via VISA, MasterCard and ArCa cards and to simplify the process of configuration of the merchants’ websites, Ameriabank offers a free software tool - vPOS (virtual POS terminal) which provides a fast and secure solution for accepting online card payments.
The merchant applies for Ameria’s Internet Acquiring Service and later receives the Terms and Conditions documentation, along with the minimum requirements to the company and its website.
