- The process to store a card should include a checkbox to opt-in to store the card. <\/li>
- Merchant should secure the transaction with 3-D Secure to ensure lowest fees and chargeback protection.<\/li>
- If not using an integrated solution, it should include the ability to attach invoice on demand to send with payment request.<\/li>
- Solution must support level 3 processing, again to reduce merchant fees and maximize profits. <\/li>
- Optional: partial payments. Some merchants may want to allow partial payment so at least collecting some money while other portion is in dispute or for other reasons.<\/li>
- If omnichannel, the ability to use the same gateway for all services simplifies security management and accounting.<\/li>
- Solution should be compatible with any merchant account so if you make a change, it does not disrupt consumer or merchant.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

But now merchants can simply send a payment request, send an invoice, or send an account sign up for the customer to self-input their card on file so the merchant never, ever inputs cardholder data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
