[Back to Blog](/blog/)  **Payment option note**: Direct Xendit support introduced another 9Pic Checkout payment option for teams that need regional payment familiarity alongside participant search. We added it so organizers in supported markets could use a payment path buyers already recognize, without adding 9Pic commission. What payment option launched ---------------------------- Direct Xendit support introduced Xendit as a payment option for organizers in supported markets selling event photos through 9Pic Checkout. The launch recognized that checkout trust is not universal. A payment flow that feels natural in one market can feel unfamiliar in another. Regional payments matter for photo sales ---------------------------------------- Event photo sales are local by nature. Buyers trust payment methods they already use, and organizers need settlement workflows that match their business region. Xendit support gives 9Pic Checkout a better fit for teams that need regional payment collection without giving up the gallery, search, and delivery tools around it. Participants are more likely to complete a purchase when the payment method feels recognizable and low-risk, especially after the emotional high of finding a photo. The hesitation this removes --------------------------- Before Xendit support, a participant could want the photo but hesitate when the payment path felt unfamiliar or disconnected from local buying habits. After Xendit support, teams could offer a more regionally familiar checkout path without adding 9Pic commission. What this introduced -------------------- ### Xendit checkout path Let eligible sellers collect payments with their own Xendit setup. ### Zero 9Pic commission Keep platform pricing separate from payment-provider fees and avoid a 9Pic sales commission. ### Localized buyer trust Support payment behavior that is familiar in the seller market. Where teams can use it ---------------------- - Regional race organizers selling participant photos after events. - Sports photographers building paid galleries for local competitions. - Agencies that need Xendit reporting and settlement in their finance process. Rollout checklist ----------------- - Confirm the seller account and supported payment methods before launch. - Test checkout on mobile because most participant purchases happen there. - Publish refund and delivery terms before promoting paid galleries. What this enables next ---------------------- Xendit support introduced a regional payment option and made Checkout more practical for sellers whose buyers expect local payment familiarity. The product direction stayed consistent: help participants find the media they value, then make the purchase step familiar enough to complete.
