Payment Gateway

Payment Gateway Overview

There are four parts to ecommerce in XPOR.

• BACS Payment Gateway - allows payments to go through the BACS service which is used by a large number of banks in the UK.
• Cheque Payment Gateway - allows a cheque to be made out from your customer to the company.
• International BACS Payment Gateway - allows payments from abroad through the BACS service.
• Paypal Payment Gateway - sends information to Paypal to manage the payment through their services.

Payment Gateways are made under Order Type objects. You should already have your Order Type object ready from setting up your Basket/Checkout atoms - if you have not yet done so, see the relevant help resource.
