“The complexity of global merchants’ demands can no longer be met by a single, full-stack ecommerce provider,” said Mike French, head of global partnerships for Digital River. “Partnering with Magento and a world-class system integrator like diconium means brands now have the flexibility to use Magento for full control of commerce management and shopper experience, while deploying Digital River’s unique Merchant and Seller of Record business model.”

French added, “We want merchants to be able to focus on their brand, knowing that Digital River is taking on the risk and responsibility for all key financial elements of their online sale, including compliance with country-specific trade and tax laws, as well as collecting and remitting all payments and taxes, a combination of services we call The Onshore Advantage™. We take something very complex and make it easy for merchants.”

“We are pleased to welcome Digital River to the Magento Technology Partner Program,” said Andre Dogan, Senior Manager, Technology Partner Program. “Combining the agility and control of the Magento platform with Digital River’s global payments and risk solutions, offers our joint clients a truly flexible ecommerce stack that delivers a superior localized buying experience.”

“We have a long history with Magento, and now our new partnership with Digital River allows us to integrate the systems in a modular and secure way that is repeatable,” said Roland Oberdorfer, managing partner at diconium. “By connecting both Magento and Digital River’s Payments & Risk solutions we can help merchants open their sites to sell to customers almost anywhere in the world in a matter of months rather than the years it would take them to do it on their own.”

Innovative digital brands can now look toward Digital River and Magento to deliver a solution that allows them to control the customer experience, grow revenue, and move easily into global markets with local acquirers and payment methods that can increase conversion rates. At the same time, online merchants can sleep at night, knowing they are fully protected and compliant in the increasingly complex global marketplace.
