You'll have to make PostgreSQL accept connections from ANY IP in the possible
range assigned to the networks where your customers are.  There are IP ranges
for specific countries available...  You can also allow access from anywhere
in the world.

I'd also recommend that you require the use of some cryptography such as SSL
for that.
