Omise Paynow Payment Settings

1. What is Omise Paynow?

Omise is a payment platform that provides merchants with different payment methods for accepting, processing, and disbursing payments. Omise supports Paynow in Singapore, which allows customers to make payments seamlessly by scanning or uploading a QR code from their device, without the need for cards or cash. 

To use Omise Paynow to collect payment in your shop, you will need to apply for an Omise account and complete the settings in SHOPLINE Admin by going to [Settings] > [Payment Options]. After setting up Omise Paynow as a payment option in SHOPLINE Admin, your customers will be able to pay by scanning a QR code, without needing to redirect to another payment page.

Before you set up Omise Paynow as a payment method, please note:

1. When you apply for an Omise account, you will need to provide your bank account information. The bank account must be located in Singapore where your settlement currency is based. 
2. Omise Paynow charges a 0.8% transaction fee per successful transaction.

3. Notes

• Paynow can only process payments between SGD 1 and SGD 20,000.
• The following banks support Paynow:
  
  
• A Paynow QR code will be created upon placement of the order and will expire after one hour. Customers will not be able to pay with this QR code once it has expired. 
• To avoid payment errors to Omise instead of the merchant's account, please remind customers not to make a UEN transfer to Omise or scan the Paynow QR code again after payment has been made.
• Order payment status will remain "Unpaid" after 1 hour if the payment is not completed. The order status will be updated as "Expired" after 3 hours.
