Now available within mtCharge+, the company reports that its new system \u201celiminates insecure, rep-mediated workflows and replacing them with a seamless, buyer-driven, and fully PCI-compliant payment experience.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the past, wholesale transactions have relied on outdated practices such as credit card numbers collected by phone, written on paper orders, shared over email or text, and handled by sales reps and agencies. This legacy workflow no longer meets the demands of modern business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Today\u2019s challenges include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2022 Rising security risks, with growing exposure to card compromise and fraud<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2022 Increasing chargebacks, placing additional strain on brands and agencies<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2022 Actively enforced PCI compliance, creating new operational risk<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The burden disproportionately falls on the people keeping wholesale moving \u2014 the sales reps, agencies, and brands who must manage sensitive payment data within a system not designed for today\u2019s standards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">MarketTime\u2019s answer is InvoicePay, a capability within mtCharge+ that redefines the payment experience. Instead of collecting payment details manually, InvoicePay converts a shipped purchase order into a secure, click-to-pay invoice. Buyers complete payment on their own device within a fully compliant environment, eliminating the need for reps, agencies, or brands to ever see or handle sensitive card data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This shift reportedly enables:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2022 End-to-end PCI compliance by design<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2022 Reduced operational burden for reps and agencies<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2022 Faster, frictionless payments for buyers<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2022 Improved cash flow and reduced risk for sellers<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This feature is a transition from rep-mediated transactions to buyer-controlled, scalable payment workflows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWholesale has invested heavily in how products are discovered and sold, but not in how transactions are actually completed,\u201d said Todd Litzman, CEO of MarketTime. \u201cThis is a major step forward in modernizing wholesale commerce. For retailers, it means a faster, more flexible way to pay, on their terms, from anywhere. For brands, agencies, and sales reps, it eliminates one of the biggest operational challenges they face every day. By combining payments, identity, and engagement into a single experience, we\u2019re not just improving efficiency, we\u2019re rebuilding the foundation of how wholesale works. This is how the industry finally catches up to modern commerce: where transactions are not only faster, but fundamentally safer and more intelligent.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">MarketTime is calling on retailers, brands, sales reps, agencies, and technology providers to adopt shared responsibility in modernizing payment practices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cLegacy workflows were never designed for today\u2019s security landscape,\u201d added Litzman. \u201cMoving forward requires coordinated change across the entire ecosystem, not just new tools, but new behaviors.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to the company, unlike marketplace platforms that sit between buyers and sellers \u2013 or point solutions that optimize individual workflows \u2013 MarketTime is building the infrastructure that powers wholesale commerce end-to-end, connecting orders, payments, relationships, and data into a single system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>What\u2019s Next<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">InvoicePay is now available to all mtCharge+ customers as part of their existing payment processing capabilities. Customers using third-party gateways can schedule a demo to explore migration options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Looking ahead, MarketTime will continue expanding mtCharge+ into a more intelligent transaction layer, and introducing capabilities such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2022 Automated payment orchestration<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2022 Embedded credit and terms optimization<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2022 Real-time transaction insights across the order lifecycle<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Related articles<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/lightingnewsnow.com\/?p=1187\">MarketTime Launches Certified Vendor Partnership Program for Gift &amp; Home<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The platform\u2019s new InvoicePay capability within mtCharge+ eliminates payment risk and changes how transactions move through the wholesale ecosystem.
