Any reputable Dogs AU breeder knows that ensuring the safety and security of your puppies and their new owners is paramount. But with the rise of online scams and fraudulent activities in recent years, it's becoming increasingly important to find new ways to protect both yourself and your buyers.
That's where Dogz Pay comes in.
Dogz Pay is a payment option that enables puppy buyers to pay for their new furry friend directly through Dogz Online. But, it's not just a simple payment option, it's also a safer option for breeders and our community that has been created with the protection of our members at the forefront of our minds.
Cash is king?
Most people are accustomed to receiving cash payments, or with a standard Bank Transfer. Although it's a relatively simple process that everyone knows how to do, it does bring on associated risks or concerns when utilising this payment option.
The majority of puppy buyers would prefer not to pay via cash due to it's lack of trackability, although convenient. Cash payments can make it difficult to resolve disputes because of this lack of payment history.
Bank transfers, while often seen as a more secure option, can still be vulnerable to fraudulent activities such as phishing scams, identity theft, or incorrect details. We've heard more than enough horror stories of scammers, creating fake accounts and ads online, pretending to be someone in our breeder community and then getting the unknowing puppy buyer to send money to the scammers' own bank account. This can hurt the reputation of the breeder, and also leaves many unknowing buyer susceptible to scams and fake accounts online
Your are protected when accept payments via Dogz Pay.
Dogz pay is designed to be protect our members and community. Which isn't the case for other payment options like PayPal, and the likes who often don't stand behind breeders and can sometimes be used to leave members susceptible to reverse chargebacks and other scams.
Dogz Pay protects members by guaranteeing payments and protecting you from cancelled payments, fraudulent chargebacks, bounced cheques, and other scam techniques. Often member's use Dogz Pay payment requests to weed out those scammers that attempt to "purchase" a dog from you, as they usually run a mile once the payment request comes as it protects you from falling victim to one of these scams.
Additionally, no exchange of any private banking information is every exchanged between you and the puppy buyer, which keeps your details safe.
It's really easy to use.
Dogz Pay is designed to be really simple to use for members and your puppy buyers. It automatically provides you both with professional invoices to manage records.
Here's how it works: You send a payment request, and when the buyer completes the payment, you are instantly notified and the money is transferred to your nominated bank account. You will receive an email confirming when payment is successfully completed. You can do it all with the click of a few buttons in the Member's Section.
We also have a quick video here that shows you how it works.
Dogz Pay can be used for deposits and full payments, providing you with full flexibility to customise amounts, and adding notes or comments to invoices.
Dogz Pay is always free for you.
Dogz Pay will always be free for breeders. We do not charge you, and you will always receive what is requested to your puppy buyers. Other platforms like PayPal would typically charge both you and your puppy buyer a fee for processing a payment.
It is also free for puppy buyers until the 30th of September 2024. It also provides puppy buyers with an easy to use option to pay via credit/debit card, Apple Pay, and Google Pay.
