Features

Check out the Geidea Payment Gateway solution and the entire suite of features that make us stand out!

Feature	Description
Pre-Authorization and Capture	Pre-Authorization transaction verifies customer card detail with its issuer and reserves/holds customer funds for the transaction amount. Capture is performed for a pre-authorized transaction to complete it, after which previously held funds are deducted from the customer's account and settled into your account. Capture can be done for the complete or partial pre-authorized amount. You can also perform multiple captures for a single pre-authorization.
3D Secure (3DS)	3D secure is an additional layer of authentication that a card holder needs to provide during an online transaction. It secures the customer from fraudulent card ussage and the merchant from undue chargebacks
Recurring Payments	A recurring payment, also known as a subscription payment, is a type of payment where a customer authorizes a merchant or service provider to automatically charge their account at regular intervals, usually weekly, monthly, or annually. You can utilize our Payment Links or Auto-debit features to accept subscription payments from your customers
Card on file	Card on file refers to the practice of securely storing a customer's payment card details (via tokenization) for future transactions. This enables returning customers to make purchases without having to enter their card details each time they shop with you. We provide the capability to let the customer or the merchant initiate a payment from the stored card data.
Refund - Full or Partial	A refund is done to return the previously captured funds back to the shopper. You can choose to return the full or partial amount against a purchase
Order query	An order query refers to a request made by the merchant to retrieve information about a specific transaction or order. This can include details such as the payment amount, date and time of the transaction, the payment method used, and the status of the payment (e.g., declined, refunded, etc.)
Callbacks	Callback notification is a server-to-server communication that happens at the backend in realtime to notify merchant of the order's processing status i.e. Success, Failed or Cancelled. This is particularly useful if due to any issue at the customer's end postback to merchant fails such as internet disconnection, browser failure, etc.
