Common questions.
Why is local acquiring important for international sales?
Local acquiring improves authorisation rates by processing transactions within the customer's country, reducing the likelihood of a card issuer declining a foreign transaction. It also often lowers processing fees and enhances customer trust, leading to higher conversion rates.
Does local acquiring require me to have a physical presence in each country?
Not necessarily. While some local acquirers may prefer a local entity, Cardflo's network includes partners that can support local acquiring without a full physical presence. We help you navigate these requirements to find suitable solutions for your operations.
How does local acquiring affect payment security and compliance?
Local acquiring often aligns better with regional data residency and compliance regulations, such as GDPR. It can simplify PCI DSS compliance by keeping data within specific jurisdictions and leveraging local security standards, enhancing overall payment integrity.
