The #1 Question to Ask When Changing Your Acumatica Payments Gateway

With so many options available for Acumatica payments and processing gateways, choosing the right one for your business can be overwhelming. However, there are certain factors you should consider to ensure you make the best decision. In this article, we will provide tips on how to select the best Acumatica credit card processing solution for your business.

In the world of Acumatica, the software publisher plays a crucial role as the central command center, orchestrating every step of the process. Meanwhile, the processor takes care of the intricate details, handling deposits and calculating rates. And lastly, the payment gateway acts as the essential link, seamlessly connecting your ERP system to the processor. It facilitates secure two-way communication and ensures that funds are readily available.

Not all Payment Gateways are Created Equal

There are many reasons a payment gateway is a good or bad choice for your business, so it's important to find out which gateway is connected to your processor. You must ask the question “What’s the payment gateway?” Here are some features and functions you should verify:

ECommerce Compatibility
If you are utilizing an eCommerce platform, it is vital to ascertain the compatibility of the gateway you are considering. Certain platforms only support a restricted number of gateways, so it is essential to be aware of which gateway you are utilizing to guarantee seamless integration with your existing and future eCommerce solution.

Payment Types Offered
To ensure smooth payment processing and avoid disruptions, choose a gateway that supports Level II and III processing and provides clear communication.

Level II and III Capabilities

If you want to ensure seamless and efficient payment processing for your business, it's important to stay informed about the capabilities of different payment gateways and make informed decisions that align with your needs and objectives. To avoid potential setbacks, it's crucial to consider the qualifications for Level II and Level III payments when choosing a payment gateway for your Acumatica system. Look for a gateway that provides transparent communication and support for these advanced processing capabilities to maximize efficiency, cost savings, and customer satisfaction for your business.

In addition, if you use an eCommerce platform, it's important to determine if the gateway you're considering is compatible. Some platforms only work with a limited number of gateways, so it's essential to know which gateway you're using to ensure compatibility with your current and future eCommerce solution. It's also worth noting that not all gateways support all payment types, so be sure to choose the one that matches your payment types.
