Starting with FLOA

4. Customer journey

STEP 1

The customer selects items in the merchant webstore and proceeds to the checkout.

STEP 2

The customer selects FLOA and the installment plan simulation is displayed.

Note. If the basket is not eligible for FLOA payment, no payment plan will be presented. The payment attempt will be rejected, and the customer will be asked to select another payment method.

To prevent this misunderstanding in the customer journey, we recommend that the merchant checks the eligibility of the basket for FLOA payment. The FLOA method should be called only if the basket meets the prerequisites.

STEP 3

The customer selects the payment installment plan and clicks on “Continue”. The customer is redirected to FLOA website to complete the payment.

STEP 4

Once the payment is completed, the customer is redirected to the merchant webstore. The purchase is confirmed.

STEP 5

Payment is triggered by FLOA according to the payment installment plan.

5. Onboarding

  • You will need to sign an agreement with FLOA. You will have to provide your KYC documents, and your agreement will define which products are eligible for your business.
  • FLOA will provide you with a FLOA KEY that needs to be shared with Market Pay. This key will be used to secure the merchant’s FLOA payments. There is one FLOA KEY per company activity, regardless of the number of points of sale.
