Slashing Transaction Fees for Shopify Businesses – TJ and Boodil Partnership

August 7, 2025

Advanced Payments, Unlocked. Cutting-Edge Capabilities Made Accessible.

Transaction Junction (TJ), a leading Southern African FinTech innovator, has partnered with eCommerce Payments company Boodil for the official launch of a new eCommerce payment solution for Shopify merchants.

Engineered to empower businesses with a highly cost-effective, no-fuss, plug-and-play solution, the platform offers Shopify merchants seamless access to an advanced payment platform along with automated reconciliation services and intelligent reporting tools.

Today, the ability to deliver a diverse, secure, and frictionless payment experience isn’t just a value-add—it’s mission-critical. Yet many online businesses find themselves hampered by the technical complexity of integrating sophisticated payment gateways. The solution and partnership removes those barriers, bringing enterprise-grade payment capabilities within reach of businesses of all sizes—no matter their technical resources.

Our mission has always been to make advanced payment capabilities seamlessly accessible to businesses while simplifying complexity—enabling our customers to focus on what they do best: growing their business. The new solution is a testament to that commitment—sophisticated yet remarkably easy to use, it’s built to meet the dynamic needs of modern online commerce.

The Most Competitive Transaction Fees – Guaranteed

We provide eCommerce merchants with South Africa’s most competitive payment gateway fees. We are so confident in our competitiveness that we invite you to bring us your current rates – we guarantee to beat them!

Engineered for the Smoothest Checkout Experience

The solution and partnership with Boodil has been engineered to deliver a fluid and intuitive payment experience that minimises friction and maximises conversion rates. The streamlined flow is as follows:

 

  1. Customer adds product to cart: customer browses and adds items to their cart.
  2. Proceeds to checkout: customer completes contact and shipping information.
  3. Directed to payment page: customer is seamlessly directed to a highly secure payment page.
    (Sensitive payment data never touches the merchant’s server, significantly reducing PCI DSS scope and enhancing security. The page can be branded with the merchant’s logo and colours for a consistent customer journey.)
  4. Completes payment: the customer pays with the card or alternative payment method of choice.
  5. Lands on order confirmation page: after successful payment, the customer is immediately directed back to the merchant’s order confirmation page.

Access an Expansive Ecosystem of Payment Providers

A key strength of TJ’s platform lies in its seamless integration with a wide array of payment providers. This extensive network caters to diverse consumer preferences and significantly expands merchants’ potential customer bases locally and internationally.

TJ continually adds new providers to its eCommerce ecosystem, with the solution offering simple, immediate access—no development or technical effort required to enable additional payment methods.

Says Mollagee: “The sheer breadth of payment providers supported through the solution is transformative for merchants. This wide acceptance doesn’t just meet customer expectations—it creates new opportunities for growth, especially for businesses across Africa where payment preferences are incredibly diverse.”

Global Card Schemes

eCommerce merchants will have easy, seamless access to a variety of leading global card schemes for their business.

Alternative Payment Methods (APMs)
eCommerce merchants can access leading APMs that offer convenience and often higher conversion rates.

Supporting Advanced Online Payment Capabilities

  • Secure and Certified: PCI-DSS and 3D Secure Compliant
    Transaction Junction’s commitment to security is paramount. The solution leverages TJ’s PCI DSS-compliant infrastructure and 3D Secure authentication for card payments.
  • Saved Card Management: Multi-Card Tokenisation
    While most solutions only support single-card tokenisation, we enable multi-card tokenisation, allowing customers to save and choose from multiple cards linked to their login email address.
  • Accept Multiple Currencies
    Through our extensive banking relationships, online merchants can accept payment from multiple African currencies.
  • Automated Failover Acquiring
    Available upon request—if one acquiring bank experiences an issue, transactions automatically route to an alternative acquirer, ensuring uninterrupted service.
  • Ultimate Speed and Stability
    TJ’s industry-leading processing speed and unparalleled stability guarantee secure, lightning-fast transactions—even during peak demand.

Advanced Reconciliation Services with TJ Recon

Industry analysts and operational experts highlight that payment reconciliation—the process of matching payments received with corresponding sales data—is crucial for maintaining accurate records, ensuring compliance, and safeguarding cash flow. Without it, retailers risk revenue leakage, fraud, delayed reporting, and an eroded customer experience.

Reconciliation in online retail involves aligning transaction data from merchants’ platforms with payment provider records to maintain accuracy and auditable trails.

TJ Recon automates and streamlines reconciliation, ensuring accuracy, efficiency, and scalability so businesses can manage complex transaction ecosystems with ease.

We provide customers access to TJ Recon, a smart web-based platform to monitor and manage reconciliation results, exceptions, and expected settlements.
