When you pay for your shopping items at your brick and mortar store, you swipe or insert your credit/debit card on the card reader terminal. The terminal verifies the card identity stored in the magnetic strip or the chip on the card and sends the card details, together with the total amount you are paying for your shopping items, to the merchant’s payment service provider. The payment service provider transmits the data to your bank and merchant’s bank and executes the payment transaction.
In the same way as in brick and mortar payment system, in an online payment system, you need online payment gateway instead of card reader terminal. The payment gateway sends customer and card details together with payment data to payment service provider.
The payment gateway may be part of payment application that provides the way customers enter their details, select items to purchase, auto-calculate the totals, many other functions required by your business. You have more flexibility to customize your customer buying experience when you use an online payment system.
Zapof form provides flexible application and payment gateway to accept online payment. Your customers choose what they want, and the total amount is auto-calculated using our built-in formulas. In the following conference registration form, the attendees choose the topics and specify the number of people to attend the networking dinner. The total payment is calculated automatically.
To try the payment in this example, you can use the test card numbers 4242424242424242, any three-digit CVC code, any billing ZIP code, such as 42424, and expiration date in the future.
The above form is copied from our template collection: Conference Registration Form template.
