What Is a Payment Provider? #
Our payment provider is a global financial technology platform that enables businesses of all sizes to accept online payments, send payouts, and manage revenue securely. It supports payments in over 135 currencies and powers many well-known online services and marketplaces worldwide.
Through this system, sellers can accept major credit and debit cards, digital wallets such as Apple Pay and Google Pay, bank transfers, and other local payment methods—all through a single, unified integration. The platform also supports automated tax calculations, recurring billing, invoicing, and advanced fraud protection tools.
What Is a Payment Gateway? #
A payment gateway securely handles the transfer of payment information between the customer, their bank, and the seller. When a customer enters their payment details, the gateway encrypts and transmits this information securely for authorisation and processing.
Our payment system acts as both a gateway and a processor, which simplifies setup for sellers. This means you don’t need multiple accounts or integrations—everything is handled through one secure platform that manages transactions, payouts, reporting, and compliance.
How Payments Are Kept Secure #
Security is central to our payment infrastructure. The system is certified to the highest industry standards, including PCI DSS Level 1, which is the most rigorous certification for payment processing. All sensitive data is encrypted both in transit and at rest using advanced cryptographic protocols.
Built-in fraud detection monitors every transaction in real time, analysing thousands of signals—such as device information, location, and behavioural patterns—to block suspicious activity while allowing legitimate customers to check out smoothly.
The platform also supports strong authentication methods (including 3D Secure) and complies with UK and EU regulations such as Strong Customer Authentication (SCA), ensuring a safe and trusted checkout experience.
How Our Marketplace Payment System Works #
Our payment infrastructure is designed specifically for marketplaces and multi-seller platforms. It allows sellers to onboard securely, receive direct payouts, and manage their earnings through a streamlined interface.
The system supports payouts in local currencies, handles regulatory compliance (including identity verification checks), manages tax reporting, and enables automated fee deductions. This ensures sellers can operate smoothly while the platform remains compliant and secure.
