A Payment Gateway facilitates online payments by secure transmitting payment information between a customer, merchant and the acquiring bank by encrypting and decrypting the payment details of the stakeholders. Payment Gateway serves as a bridge between the merchant’s end and the financial institutions involved in the transactions, adding another layer of security for payments.
A Payment Gateway securely processes a customer payment information during an online transaction. When a customer makes a transaction, a Payment Gateway encrypts their payment details and sends the details to the merchant’s acquiring bank. The acquiring bank forwards the information to card network for verifying the customer’s identity. After authorizing the payment, the funds are transferred to the acquirer bank and the Payment Gateway sends a confirmation to both merchant and the customer.
