Connect

Connect offers flexibility for certified solutions to integrate to the Merchant API and includes the most streamlined approach for mutual merchants to share their data to third-party systems. Connect allows third-parties to access reporting and perform various functions on behalf of merchants for an open payment ecosystem.

The two primary use cases for connect are (1) resellers looking to monetize payments by boarding their merchants on our platform, which will come with inherited permissions such as being able to process payments on behalf of the merchant for example. For software platforms looking to onboard merchants and be able to process payments in a frictionless way, Connect provides the level of flexibility needed to accomplish that, and (2) third-party solution providers which are not the reseller of record where they are provided one token with a seamless way to request merchants to provide permission to perform various functions on their behalf whether it is run reporting, manage chargebacks, or other tasks.

While not limited to the following, Connect we designed with the following in mind:

• Software platforms: many software platforms provide a solution to merchants in which an integrated payments solution only makes things easier for the merchant to run their business. Generally referred to as ISVs, you can become a reseller to onboard your merchants and perform other functions as well such as processing payments, access to reporting, and so on. As the reseller of record, an ISV would systemitcally be able to board a merchant then inherit the permission to perform these other functions. This enables the software platform to offer a integrated payments offering in which they monetize revenue on while driving a valuable solution offering to their user base of merchants.

• Payment gateways: payment gateways can streamline onboarding and other tools such as chargeback reporting by using Connect.

• Chargeback management solutions: third-party providers managing chargebacks and disputes for merchants can pull chargeback reporting, provide responses and rebuttals to disputes, and perform other neccesary functions on behalf of merchants systematically allowing a more integrated and efficient way.

• CRM solutions: CRM solutions can manage various tools to provide mutual merchants a more streamlined and robust experience when using us as the payment processor to more effeciently run their business from the CRM platform.
