Best-in-class payment solutions enable you to compete at the highest level, regardless of how you serve merchants, how quickly you grow or how large you get. Embeddable web forms are a key part of that process, allowing you to quickly and easily create the convenient, fast and frictionless sign-up experiences merchants expect, with as little effort as possible.
Whether you’re a start-up looking for a fast, turnkey solution or a large independent sales organization (ISO) or software platform looking for something custom, the right tools will make merchant onboarding simple and easy.
Recently, we added some new capabilities to our NMI Web Forms solution to help you deliver a better sign-up experience and streamline your backend onboarding and merchant underwriting processes. Updates include several quality of life enhancements, like:
- Sign-up form customization with conditional logic
- Multi-location support
- Faster integration with no-code/low-code tools
- White-labeling options
Customizing Forms in Real Time With Conditional Logic
Conditional logic allows you to create dynamic forms that automatically adjust to fit merchant applications. They make sign-up as easy as possible and ensure you always capture the information you need. For instance, you can use preset rules to hide or reveal sign-up form sections or to make fields mandatory based on a merchant’s existing input. That allows you to gather additional information from higher value or higher risk merchants (that require in-depth underwriting) without forcing lower risk merchants to sift through unnecessary fields.
As an example, imagine you have a set of additional questions you need to ask merchants that do more than a certain percent of their sales online or in a certain category (a common requirement in underwriting). Why subject every merchant to those questions if they aren’t applicable?
With a static form, that’s what you’d have to do. But with NMI Web Forms and conditional logic, you can ask the merchant for their sales information and then the form will adjust itself based on the answer. If a merchant falls above your threshold, the form will automatically make the additional questions mandatory fields. If the threshold isn’t met, the questions will stay hidden, and the merchant will never see them. Ultimately, that simplifies and speeds up their onboarding experience.
Streamlining Sign-up With Multi-Location Support
Efficiently serving large merchants is crucial to ongoing growth. NMI Web Forms now offers multi-location support, making it easy to deliver an outstanding sign-up process to merchants that operate multiple stores under the same ownership.
Instead of forcing a merchant to submit a unique application for each of their locations, you can offer a single sign-up where the information for each additional location is included as an add-on to the main form. That eliminates frustrating reentry of the same details and greatly improves the merchant experience.
Upon submission, location-specific agreements are automatically generated, simplifying onboarding while still getting all the relevant information to your underwriters to ensure the fastest possible approval.
Faster Integration With Easy No-Code and Low-Code Embedding
NMI Web Forms can be quickly and easily embedded into your website, enabling you to offer fast, convenient online sign-up options with little to no technical effort required.
- No-Code: If you don’t need control over form customization, you can go fully no-code and embed a sign-up form into your site in seconds with a simple inline frame (iframe)
- Low-Code: For more control, you can go low-code with dynamic iframes or a JavaScript widget, offering enhanced flexibility while still integrating with your site quickly and easily
No-code and low-code embedded forms offer the easiest way to sign up new merchants without forcing them off your site and onto a partner’s. That helps you build trust and ensure your merchants stay engaged with your brand. Low-code and no-code options also give you the flexibility and choice necessary to craft your ideal sign-up process, no matter how turnkey or customized it may be.
