Payment Gateway

Payment gateway connects your online store to your payment system and makes online transactions possible and secure.

After integration with your online store, the payment gateway sends the transaction information to your acquiring bank, which performs the functions mentioned on the Internet Merchant Account page. The gateway then, based on your acquirer’s response, sends you an approval or rejection message.

From a technical point of view, a Payment Gateway is a software application that connects a website to an acquiring bank or electronic aggregator so that customers can pay the seller (merchant) on the website using a bank card.

A payment gateway is software that allows you to transfer transaction data from a merchant to an acquiring bank. This software serves as the interface between the payment form on the merchant’s website and the acquiring bank.

For security purposes, the system encrypts all information transmitted between the cardholder, the merchant, and the acquiring bank. Thus, confidential data is reliably protected inside the system.

A payment gateway can be provided by an acquiring bank or any other financial institution that complies with Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS).
