  • Immediate settlements: Ordo ensures immediate and irrevocable payments directly into the merchant’s bank account, improving cash flow management.

  • Chargeback elimination: Since Ordo’s Open Banking payments are instant and irrevocable, the chargeback risk is eliminated, putting you in control of refunds.

  • Refund control: Open Banking by Ordo gives you full control over refunds, simplifying the process.

  • Plug-and-Play integration: Ordo’s integration into AERO Commerce eliminates the need for retailers to incur additional

    integration expenses. The onboarding process is straightforward and hassle-free, consisting of a simple plug-in within the payment platform. Retailers and web agencies can easily download the AERO package and connect their beneficiary account to start receiving payments.

  • Enhanced customer loyalty: Shoppers love the speed, security and convenience of Open Banking payments that make entering card or account details a thing of the past, and businesses no longer have to worry about storing sensitive information reducing the regulatory burden and fraud risk.
