Payment Gateway
A secure service that processes online transactions between customers and merchants, encrypting payment data and verifying transactions in real time.
A payment gateway is the secure bridge between your website, your customers, and their banks. It processes online transactions, encrypts sensitive information, and verifies payments in real time. A good gateway protects against fraud, ensuring money moves safely from buyer to seller. E-commerce platforms depend on them to handle credit cards, digital wallets, and other payment methods. Popular gateways include Stripe, PayPal, and Square, though most hosting providers integrate with many options. Choosing a trusted gateway builds confidence with customers and ensures that every transaction is smooth and secure.
