How to get setup with UnionPay Direct

Setting you up for UnionPay is very simple. There are two options available – either processing through the Worldline (formerly Paymark) network or through our UnionPay Direct add on. If your merchant bank can act as your acquirer, you’ll just need the latest software on compatible terminals and you can accept UnionPay through the Paymark network in the same way you do a Visa or Mastercard payment.

If your bank doesn’t support UnionPay, we can offer you UnionPay Direct on your existing terminal. Sign the merchant agreement with UnionPay, download the software to the Smartpay terminal and you are up and running.

To get UnionPay Direct on your Smartpay EFTPOS terminal, simply complete the Merchant Agreement form and return to sales@smartpay.co.nz or fax to 09 442 0622

Jamie is an amazing rep - he has chased my business, and chased my bank for me. Apart from being friendly and efficient, he was also really good at getting the job done.I have been the worst customer ever - but he got me there in the end 🙂 5 stars and a pay rise for Jamie!
Response from the owner: Hi Liza-Kay, thank you for your lovely review. We are so pleased you are enjoying our service and Jamie is thrilled to receive your compliments. Thank you, The Smartpay team.
