E-Commerce & Paywalls

Circdata is a specialist e-commerce provider with proven expertise in taking payments for subscriptions, tickets or merchandise via bespoke shopping carts and Circdata’s own Fusion platform and providing financial and marketing reports on those transactions.

As a registered Direct Debit Bureau and Sagepay Partner, Circdata is able to collect payments on behalf of a publisher using their own, or Circdata’s, Service User Number or merchant account facility, whilst also offering an “invoice me” facility and supporting payment by Bacs or cheque.

Publishers seeking to sell subscriptions to premium content held behind a paywall require a fulfilment provider proficient at integration with third-party CMS platforms. Circdata has demonstrable expertise and flexibility in this respect, having provided authentication services to publishers via existing integrations with Drupal, eZ Publish, Liferay and Webvision.

A shopping cart can sell subscriptions and merchandise for a single brand or across a portfolio of brands. Whatever the preferred scenario, Circdata is able to provide analysis of shopping cart abandonment including sending an automated email to the would-be customer or providing an output file to allow a telephone call to be made. Account-based self-service is available to subscribers via the CMS or shopping cart together with a Preference Centre.
