Direct API | Start accepting payments through our Direct API collection that allows merchants and developers to directly process and manage payments without the need to integrate with third-party payment gateways. You can accept payments through your websites, mobile applications, or other platforms by creating hyper-personalized user journeys for your clients. Note: Merchants need to ensure that they comply with relevant data protection laws and industry standards, such as the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS). |

Merchants need to ensure that they comply with relevant data protection laws and industry standards, such as the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS). To know more about PCI-DSS, click here.
In addition to it, kindly watch out for local data privacy, data governance and data storage laws.
Integrating with Direct APIs requires additional technical expertise and resources to implement and maintain. If you opt for this option, you might need the help of a developer to ensure a smooth and flawless integration process.
Please note integrating with API-based solutions need additional effort and would require you to be PCI-DSS certified and compliant. This mode of integration is typically chosen by merchants with huge transaction volumes. These integrations can be accomplished only with the help of developers.

Preauthorization and Capture | Preauthorization is verifying the payment details of the shopper with the issuer and reserving the funds. Capture is when the previously reserved funds are transferred from the shopper to your account. Captures can be for full or partial amounts and multiple capture requests against the same authorization are allowed. |
3D Secure (3DS) | 3D Secure is an additional layer of cardholder authentication to provide security for online credit and debit card transactions. |
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 use our Payment Links or Auto-debit features to accept payments for subscriptions from your customers |
Card on file | Card on file refers to the practice of securely storing a customer's payment card details for future transactions. We have the capability to let the customer or the merchant initiate a payment from the stored card data |
Refund | A refund is done to return the previously captured funds back to the shopper. You can either refund either the partial or the full amount |
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 | A callback is a type of notification, used in payments to enable real-time communication between two systems. Our callbacks are enabled with a callback signature, a security mechanism used in payment processing to ensure the authenticity and integrity of callback API notifications. |
