      Why They Buy

      POLi is very pleased that Checkout.com has decided to expand its payment choices by offering POLi. We are finding that merchants are increasingly seeking to avoid the complexity of managing multiple integrations by seeking out a single point of integration with companies such as Checkout.com. Within the Australasian region POLi is a leading alternative payments product with a strong market share in gaming, travel, foreign exchange and online retail. We expect to continue expanding quickly and this partnership with Checkout.com will accelerate our ability to bring the benefits of POLi to more merchants and customers.
