What Is Rsom Pay?
Rsom Pay is a Saudi electronic payment company that lets businesses collect payments online through the card networks and wallets Saudi customers use every day. It started with sectors such as schools and childcare, where parents pay fees online, and now serves merchants who want a simple, local way to take payments in Saudi riyals.
For an online store, Rsom Pay provides a secure payment page: your customer is sent there to pay, then comes straight back to your store. You do not handle card details yourself, and you do not need to build anything.
Key Features
- mada: Accept the national debit network that most Saudi shoppers carry. For many customers in the Kingdom, mada is the first card they reach for.
- Visa and Mastercard: Take international credit and debit cards on the same page, so visitors and customers with foreign cards can still buy from you.
- Apple Pay: Let customers pay in a couple of taps on their iPhone, which shortens checkout on mobile, where most orders happen.
- One Hosted Payment Page: Every method appears on one secure Rsom Pay page. There is no separate setup for each card type.
- Saudi Riyal Settlement: Payments are charged and settled in Saudi riyals, which keeps your accounts simple.
- Refunds from Your Dashboard: Refund an order from Trinavo and the money goes back to the customer's card through Rsom Pay.
- Test Before You Go Live: Rsom Pay gives you a test account, so you can run through the whole checkout with test cards before a real customer sees it.
Built for the Saudi Market
Shoppers in Saudi Arabia expect to pay with mada, and a growing share pay with Apple Pay on their phones. A checkout that only takes international cards turns many of them away at the final step.
Rsom Pay puts these methods together on one page, so the customer simply picks the one they were already going to use. For a store selling in the Kingdom, that is often the difference between an abandoned cart and a completed order.
Supported Regions and Currencies
Rsom Pay operates in Saudi Arabia and charges in Saudi riyals. It is a strong fit for any store whose customers are in the Kingdom. If your store is priced in another currency, Trinavo converts the order total to riyals using your exchange rates before sending the customer to pay.
Integration with Trinavo
Trinavo provides a native integration with Rsom Pay. Your store is ready for it out of the box: there is nothing to install, no developer to hire, and no custom work to commission.
To connect it, open your payment settings, choose Rsom Pay, and paste the access token Rsom Pay gives you. You can keep a test token and a live token side by side and move between them with a single switch, so you can try the whole flow before going live.
There is nothing to paste back into your Rsom Pay account. Your store tells Rsom Pay where to send the customer and the payment confirmation with every payment. Your customer is sent to the Rsom Pay page, pays with mada, a card or Apple Pay, and comes back to your store. The order is confirmed automatically, and every payment appears in your Trinavo dashboard alongside your other gateways.
Security and Compliance
The Rsom Pay payment page keeps card details away from your store entirely, which removes a large part of the compliance burden that would otherwise sit with you.
Before an order is marked as paid, your store checks the payment directly with Rsom Pay, including that the amount paid matches the order. The order is only marked paid once Rsom Pay confirms the money was received. That holds even if a customer closes their browser before returning to your store, and it means nobody can mark an order as paid by tampering with the page they land on.
Getting Started
Contact Rsom Pay to open a merchant account and receive your test and live tokens. Then open payment settings in your Trinavo store, select Rsom Pay, paste your tokens, and you are ready to take payments.
If you sell to customers in Saudi Arabia, Rsom Pay gives them the payment methods they already use. Your Trinavo store is already prepared for it, so turning it on is a matter of minutes rather than a project.
