Yola helps SMBs build and grow their online and mobile presence with mobile-optimized websites, hosting services, domains, email services, e-commerce tools, social media integrations and search engine optimization (SEO) and search engine marketing (SEM) tools. The company is integrating its proprietary software-as-a-service (SaaS) cloud platform with Sage Exchange, the secure, integrated Sage payments platform.
“The Sage Exchange payments platform seamlessly integrates with our system and allows us to maximize the value we provide our customers,” said Trevor Harries Jones, CEO of Yola. “Through the integration to Sage Exchange, our customers can securely process credit card transactions while allowing them to link to Sage accounting and ERP systems and various other front- and back-office systems.”
