OCTA + Telr integration — GCC Online Payment Collection with Telr

Category: Payment Gateway

Integrate OCTA with Telr to accept online payments from customers across the GCC using a payment gateway that is purpose-built for businesses operating in the Gulf region. Telr supports multi-currency card payments, hosted checkout pages, and recurring billing, giving OCTA the payment infrastructure needed to embed a seamless payment experience into every collection reminder sent to your GCC customer base. When a customer clicks the Telr-powered payment link in an OCTA reminder, they are directed to a secure hosted checkout that supports their preferred card and currency — and payment confirmation returns to OCTA in real time for automatic invoice reconciliation. E-commerce businesses, SaaS companies, and professional services firms across the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and the broader GCC use this integration to collect payments faster while maintaining local regulatory compliance.

What the Telr integration does

  • Multi-currency GCC Payment Acceptance: Telr processes payments in AED, SAR, KWD, QAR, BHD, OMR, and USD from a single merchant account, allowing OCTA to generate currency-appropriate payment links for customers across the GCC without requiring separate gateway accounts for each country. Exchange rates are displayed to customers at checkout so there is no confusion about the amount being charged, reducing payment abandonment due to currency uncertainty.
  • Secure Hosted Checkout Pages: Telr provides PCI-DSS-compliant hosted payment pages that OCTA embeds in every collection reminder via a dynamically generated payment link — customers are directed to a secure Telr-hosted environment where card details are captured and processed without any card data ever touching your servers or OCTA's infrastructure. The hosted checkout is fully customisable with your company logo and brand colours so the payment experience feels native to your business.
  • Recurring Payment and Subscription Support: Telr's tokenised card storage and recurring billing API allow OCTA to set up automatic monthly charges for subscription customers — once a customer authorises their card the first time, subsequent charges can be processed without requiring the customer to re-enter their details. Failed recurring charges trigger an automatic OCTA follow-up sequence to recover the payment before the subscription lapses.
  • Built-in Fraud Detection and Prevention: Telr's payment platform includes real-time transaction scoring and fraud detection that evaluates every payment attempt before processing, blocking suspicious transactions and protecting your business from chargeback losses. OCTA receives fraud review outcomes alongside payment confirmations, so disputed or flagged transactions are flagged in your AR dashboard for human review rather than being auto-reconciled.
