Supported Gateways

A payment gateway is a service that acts as an intermediary between the your online shopping cart and all the financial networks involved with the transaction, including your customers' credit card issuer and your merchant account. The gateway checks for validity, encrypts transaction details, ensures they are sent to the correct destination and then decrypts the responses which are sent back to the shopping cart.

This seamless process is transparent to your customer - they do not directly interact with the gateway. Transaction data is forwarded to the gateway via your shopping cart and a secure (SSL) connection. The shopping cart is configured via plugins to send information in a format that is acceptable to the particular gateway.
