FAQs about online payments

How can I set up online payments on my website?

To accept online payments, your website needs to connect to our payment gateway. This adds a secure checkout page where customers can safely complete their payment. The gateway securely handles card details and payment authorisation, then returns the payment result to you. All you need on what to expect and how it works, can be found on getting started with online payments.

What payment methods are available?

As standard, you can accept Visa, Mastercard, and Diners debit and credit cards, as well as Apple Pay and Google Pay. You can also choose to accept American Express (AMEX) if required.

Can I accept recurring or subscription payments?

Yes. We support recurring payments, also known as Continuous Authority Payments. These are ideal for subscriptions, instalments, or any service charged on a regular basis.

Can I customise the payment experience for my customers?

Yes. The checkout page can be customised with your branding, logo, colours, and preferred payment options. You can also add terms and conditions, privacy statements, and social media links.

What is 3D Secure?

3D Secure is an additional security step that verifies the cardholder’s identity during online payments. It helps reduce fraud and protects you and your customers.

What online payment integration options are available?

If your website uses a compatible eCommerce platform, you can install one of our shopping cart plug‑ins for a quicker setup. For more advanced or customised integrations, we also offer APIs that your developer can use, see our Developer Space for more info and related documentation.
