ECPay stands out as one of Taiwan's popular third-party payment gateways. They offer versatile payment methods, including online credit card transactions, convenience store codes, convenience store barcodes, ATM virtual codes, and online ATM services. RakoSell has successfully integrated with ECPay, enabling users to register as "ECPay General Members" on their platform. After approval, users can configure payment settings in the RakoSell dashboard. When customers make payments through ECPay's provided methods, the payment status in the dashboard automatically updates, and users can easily withdraw their income through ECPay's platform.
This article guides you through the process of registering as a member on ECPay's homepage and activating payment functions on the RakoSell platform. For individuals operating businesses, we recommend registering as individual members due to simpler procedures. While business and special members enjoy higher collection and withdrawal limits, the requirements and registration procedures are more extensive. Consider ECPay's different account types and their respective details before making a decision.
