Open Letter To Payfas Payment Processor by halimat1985(f): 1:48am On Mar 10, 2013
The owners of this payment processor should provide answers to the following questions. If they claim to be a payment processor, at least they should get the basics right.

Payfas is using positive ssl which costs N100 per month. Its even the cheapest on namecheap.
Why would a real payment processor not be able to afford a sensible security certificate?

Payfas is not even among the top 5,000 websites in Nigeria on alexa and not among the top 2 Million in the world.
Why? Is it just starting up or is it that it has no history or no users?

According to Alexa, payfas has no business websites linked to it. The only 2 sites linked to it are nairaland and domainprcheck.com probably because of the posts you have on them. I know they own jobstadia.com, does that mean they are not using their own payment processor? Is no one really using paylfas or is it a scam?


Payfas is sharing a server with sites like jobstadia.com instead of having a server dedicated to it for something as delicate as payment processing. Is it that the owners cant afford a dedicated server for payfas?



Payfas is using the free and vulnerable version of Hesk support tickets. They also cannot afford a paid support ticket script despite the security loopholes on the free version of hesk. Are they inviting hackers or are they just plain ignorant? Or is it too much to program their own if they cant buy a supported version?

Why did you launch a site with so many errors:
https://www.payfas.com/images/howitworks/register_files/like_data/
https://www.payfas.com/images/
https://www.payfas.com/images/howitworks/
https://www.payfas.com/images/howitworks/register_files/

I do not want to mention the sensitive flaws on your site so i wont be giving out free entry points to hackers. But you should fix the above listed ASAP.
Did you not have a security consultant or you just developed a payment processor without security in mind?


The attached images shows where payfas.com have copied content ( plagiarism ) from other payment processors: Voguepay.com, Simplepay4u.com and payza.com. Shouldn't you at least edit your copy and paste job?

If a blog or bulk sms site or hosting site does this king of poor job, they will be criticized. What are we supposed to do to you now?

talk2me006: Halima! is like u have enough time to write all those things over there

Meaning what? They are critical and pertinent issues she raised.

Small time people like you will open threads and shout *So and So payment processors are killing my business* or *Orishirishi payment processors are a fraud, they have taken my money since 1912* angry

Why not applaud someone who, from this post, clearly knows the terrain, to point these things out.

Its either they sit up and fix things or they pack up if they feel they have been exposed.

Would you prefer that i allow them scam people before i raise an alarm?

I have lost money online before and it was particularly painful. Wouldn't wish that for anyone.

I am not a security specialist but i have observed possible sql injection vulnerabilities on payfas.
With the level of poor job done on that site, i will not be suprised if some folders on their hesk ticketing support system are created with vulnerable permissions.

You know, I just visited the payfas website and noticed they are using one of the free templates from templatemonster(an old batch) that is downloadable from everywhere on the Internet.Though they tried to edit it a bit but the major elements are still there. I would stay very far away from that "Payment Processor"

its al about service. i currently use payfas.com to process my online payments via my website....and today i even receive payment via my website.

Sure, there are a small growing company with less than 5 employees but their service is fantastic.

They are about to start processing visa and master card payments for transactions out side nigeria.

ALL THE LUCK GUYS.

Puzuwe, we are not kids. You are behind Payfas.com. So don't come here sounding like there's an oga at the top that is doing a good job.

Puzuwe, there's still a lot of cleaning to do on that site other than what the OP pointed out (which you have cleaned without even a Thank you).

Here's one of the many more:
https://payfas.com/helpdesk/knowledgebase.php?category=3

That link has two occurrences of the word "voguepay", as it was a copy paste job. Voguepay should sue you.
