Over-The-Counter (OTC) Payments

What are Over The Counter (OTC) or Retail Outlets (RO) Payments?

Retail Outlet (RO) or Over The Counter (OTC) is a payment method allowing your end customer to make payments through popular outlets throughout Indonesia and Philippines. This payment method is important to have because a large number of end customers that are unbanked or don’t have access to a bank account will prefer this payment method as they only go to the nearest retail outlet to pay the bill using cash. With a Retail Outlet payment method, you will get a notification when your customer has made a payment without having to check it manually.

This also pertains to retail outlets or payment centers with whom First Party has agreements or arrangements allowing the in-person of payments by End-Users or the in-person collection by payees of Disbursements
