What is payment integration and how does it work?

Integrated payments involve the seamless integration of payment processing into a business's point of sale (POS) or operational system, streamlining transactions, data monitoring, and improving overall business efficiency.

With an integrated payment gateway, businesses can offer payment acceptance across various channels, including in-store and mobile, and accept all major payment types such as credit cards, debit cards, and contactless payments.

For instance, imagine you're a retailer using a point of sale system for transaction processing. By connecting your POS system with a payment processing system, you can accept payments via cash, credit cards, and debit cards.

The integrated system automatically transmits transaction information to the payment processor when a customer pays with a credit or debit card. The processor then authorizes the payment and deposits the funds into your account.
