Types of Payment Systems
The following types of payment systems are available:
- External Payment Site – payment methods of this type represent credit or debit cards you use daily. Such payment methods may be used for online payments with a redirection to a payment gateway's secure payment page. After a payment is processed, the customer returns to the provider's site.
- Manual – payment methods of this type reflect the fact that a customer has paid for the services provided with a bank check or cash.
- Custom – payment methods of this type comprise any of the available payment methods to be used for payment processing. Also payment systems of such a type can be used to process pseudo payments, which are fake payments that are used in case all the real billing activities are performed outside Billing, in a partner's own billing system.
For additional information, please refer to the Billing Provider's Guide.
