New payment page and payment options

13/10/2010

We've been busy here at Hubpeople over the last few months. We have just launched our brand new payment system after many long months of development and testing.

Here are some of the highlights of the new system:

Now accepts Mobile phone payments (*UK mobiles only)

Site members in the UK can subscribe to the site using their mobile phone (must have a UK mobile phone number, either on contract or with £10 credit for pay as you go).

This new plan costs GBP £20.50 for the first month and £14 per month after that. It is billed weekly as £3.50 with £10 due on the first payment (£3.50 with a £6.50* one time joining fee).

Simplified design and subscription plan layout

The simplified page layout has is based on design research on successful form design where the call to action for users is clearly identified on the page. This helps to improve the click trough and payment levels.

Full merchant account for credit card processing**

Hubpeople now has a full merchant account and direct relationship with the bank, as opposed to the bureau service provided by Netbanx and most other payment companies. This allows greater flexibility in managing fraud prevention measures to strike the correct balance between consumer protection and maximising revenue return.
