Integrated payments refer to the seamless incorporation of payment processing into a business’ point of sale (POS) and/or operational system. This helps to streamline transactions, monitor data, and enhance your business’ efficiency.
An integrated payment gateway allows you to offer payment acceptance through multiple channels, including in-store and mobile, and payment acceptance from all major payment types, such as credit cards and debit cards, and contactless.
Suppose you are a retailer who uses a point of sale system to process transactions. You can connect your POS system with a payment processing system to accept cash, credit, and debit cards.
The integrated system automatically sends the transaction information to the payment processor when a customer pays with a credit or debit card. The processor will then authorise the payment and deposit the funds into your account.
