Downtime Insurance for Payments Services
What Happens When Your Payment Service Goes Down?
What you do have control over is the outage-related financial risk which can be quite significant. A single hour of downtime can cost SMEs tens of thousands of dollars, while for larger companies the losses can add up to far more than that.
Do you really want to risk the financial exposure created by your payment provider’s downtime events? While they may compensate you with credits, you still need to cover an array of financial losses such as:
Lost Revenues
Downtime can strain your company’s financial reserves due to unexpected monetary exposures which increase the volatility of your cash flows.
Lost End-user Productivity
When services stop working, productivity grinds to a halt for employees who can’t do their jobs and for customers who can’t complete their purchases.
Customer Compensation
The need to offer compensation to customers in order to mitigate any damage to your brand’s reputation can directly affect your balance sheet.
Lost or Damaged Data
Downtime can prevent data from being captured, recorded and stored, requiring time-consuming work as people have to re-enter or reconfigure it later.
Lost Employee Productivity
Your IT and service teams need to shift from their normal working activities to figuring out how to support customers & bring the business back online.
Reputational Damage
Your customer service, marketing and sales teams need to handle the negative feedback and update clients, some of whom may never come back.
