Setting up ePay

Before you start

  1. Even if you previously had ePay through Ezipass, you will need to sign up with ePay.
  2. Click here to register for ePay: https://signup.epayworldwide.com.au/#/product-information
  3. You will need to choose: New Retailer → Pre-paid Services → Pos Providers → Tower Systems → Next and follow the prompts to finalise the application.
  4. Tower customers won’t be charged for terminal fees. Please email epayausales@epayworldwide.com.au for fee related inquires.
  5. Minimum transaction: minimum transaction volume is aligned with the terminal rental fee and has no impact to integrated Tower retailers, and no penalty fee as such.
  6. ePay will send you a Zip file containing your login details. The file will be password-protected.
    You will need these details to complete the following setup.
    Once you receive the Zip file, be ready for a call from ePay. They will give you a password to unlock the file.
After ePay has contacted you, follow the instructions below to setup.
