KUALA LUMPUR: GHL Systems Bhd has partnered with Visa to introduce Visa Instalments for clients using eGHL payment gateway platform.

In a joint statement today, GHL and Visa said this enhances the payment experience by letting participating sellers offer their customers an option to spread their total purchases into a number of payments over a defined time period.

Currently, over 2,500 existing eGHL online merchants across Malaysia would be able to offer their customers instalment options through this new solution.

The solution will be made available to GHL face-to-face merchants in the next phase.

"GHL is excited to be the first in Asean to be integrated to Visa Instalments application programming interface (API) to provide seamless shopping experience and expand consumers' purchasing power, especially when it comes to bigger ticket items.

"The payment flexibility is just the beginning of many of our continuous efforts and solutions that we hope to grow with Visa here onwards," GHL group chief executive officer Sean Hesh said.

Visa Malaysia head of products Kim J Hak said Visa Instalments empowers consumers the ability to choose how they pay upon checkout, and simplifies the current friction and time-consuming instalment process for buyers and sellers.

"We're extremely excited to partner with GHL to integrate our API with their payment gateway and offer this solution to thousands of online merchants.

"We will be working with our issuer partners to enable this solution for Visa cardholders shortly so that they can make instalment payments with eGHL merchants," he said.
