Payment Gateway
A payment gateway is a technology service that securely transmits payment information between a merchant’s system and a payment processor or acquiring bank.
It encrypts sensitive cardholder data, forwards transaction details for authorization via the relevant payment networks and returns an approval or decline response in real-time. Payment gateways support PCI DSS compliance by securing the transmission of cardholder data and, depending on the integration model, can reduce a merchant’s exposure to sensitive information. However, merchants remain responsible for meeting applicable PCI DSS requirements.
