It’s time to check out what’s inside our online carts. The excitement dies down a little when we realize that we need to open up another app to transfer money and finally pay the needed amount. It’s tedious to go through many channels just to finalize our purchase. The hassle is over because Volume gives you a one-click solution with the use of open banking. 
 
Not only is this beneficial to the customers but businesses can gain much from using Volume. With hidden fees riddled inside some payment processor platforms, Volume can help you avoid spending too much and start saving more. It’s a great solution, especially for SMEs looking to maximize their budget and spend on areas where they need to further scale their business. 
 
In this episode, Kunle and Simone talk about supporting SME checkouts through open banking. You will get to hear about open banking and the different possibilities it has to offer in the eCommerce world. This is a great episode for merchants looking to provide an effortless payment transaction for their customers.
