EcoPayz is a popular online payment provider with hundreds of thousands of active users spread across the globe. A majority of online businesses also offer it as a payment method option to capitalize on its popularity.
History of ecoPayz
EcoPayz was founded back in 2000 under the name EcoCard. It was in 2013 that the company was renamed to ecoPayz. Over the years, ecoPayz continued to provide and improve its services. In 2009, PSI-Pay, the UK-based company that owns ecoPayz, became a principal member of Mastercard Company and began issuing cards. The same year also saw the release of their iPhone app.
In 2013, after the company rebranded to ecoPayz, it launched the site's mobile version. In 2016, it introduced extra security features to the website, including the 2-step verification process. All those came with a new ecoAccount design.
Payment options
Users need to deposit funds into their ecoPayz accounts before they can make any transactions from the account. There are several ways of making deposits. The most popular options involve using credit cards, debit cards, direct bank transfers, and local deposit options.
Users can then make payments from their accounts directly to the recipients' accounts, including online businesses. The payments can also be initiated by the business, prompting the users only to do confirmations. That is usually the case with online bookies, where the punter's betting account initiates the transactions. Another way of paying is using the ecoPayz Mastercard. For that, users need to find outlets that accept the card.
