Company Background
Nochex was founded in 1999 and began providing a full payment service to SMEs in 2001. In its early years, Nochex was the UK’s first alternative payment choice on eBay. eBay acquired PayPal in 2003 and, in 2006, eBay stopped their sellers from using Nochex. The company obviously lost a lot of its merchants to PayPal. By the time eBay’s decision was overturned, it was too late for Nochex to regain its former success with eBay.
Nochex’s set back forced the company to look elsewhere for merchants. They developed a unique payment collection system for internet retailers who sold through their own websites and shopping carts. Nochex’s solution removed the need for SMEs to have an expensive merchant account from a bank.
In 2011, Nochex set up a partner scheme which rewards people who bring in new business, by giving them commission on sales and products used. Nochex was one of the first companies to make its payment facilities ready for mobile phones.
2013 saw Nochex being chosen by both Visa and MasterCard to head the launch of their individual electronic wallet services, both companies obviously recognising the good relationship Nochex has with its merchant account holders.
