About Austim

Austim is a family-owned Perth timber supplier established in 1985. From a 16,000 square metre facility in Perth’s northern suburbs, it supplies decking, cladding and decorative and structural timbers to building, construction, trade and retail customers.

The challenge

What needed solving

Austim needed a dependable way for customers to pay online. Payments have to be secure, reliable and easy to use – and they have to keep working when banks change their gateways.

Ocean’s work centred on this payment infrastructure; it did not include Austim’s main website.

What Ocean did

The work, specifically

01

ANZ eGate integration

02

Gateway migration

Changes for the ANZ/Worldpay transition and migration of the payment gateway.

03

Gravity Forms payment form

A payment form built with Gravity Forms, connected to the gateway.

04

Custom plugin & API work

Custom plugin and API development to connect the form and gateway.

05

Testing & troubleshooting

Transaction testing and troubleshooting, with continuing technical support.

Beyond the brief

Why this project mattered

Not every valuable project is a new website. For Austim, the most useful thing Ocean could do was make online payments secure and dependable, and keep them that way.
