HitPay has teamed up with Visa Acceptance Solutions to expand card payment acceptance in the Philippines, enabling small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) to process both in-store and online transactions.
The collaboration integrates HitPay’s payment platform into the Visa Acceptance Platform (VAP), making it quicker and more affordable for local merchants to offer card payments across various channels.
The partnership grants SMBs the capability to offer both online and in-person payments without the need for direct bank contracts. It also provides access to EMV-certified card readers and mobile-based solutions.
HitPay chief executive Aditya Haripurkar said the company’s mission has always been to make digital payments accessible to small businesses.
“With our connection to Visa Acceptance Platform, we are removing the friction and cost barriers that historically kept card acceptance out of reach for many Filipino merchants,” Haripurkar said.
“This empowers them to compete effectively and truly participate in the Philippines’ rapidly expanding digital economy,” he said.
