Payments in Upmind

Payment methods in Upmind refer to the various ways clients pay for products and services, including credit cards, bank transfers, and cryptocurrency. These can be stored for recurring billing or used once.

Stored methods enable automatic and secure invoice payments, while one-time methods require manual action for each transaction.

Connection to gateways

Payment gateways are connected to payment methods, which serve as intermediaries, safely transferring transaction data between your company, customers, and financial institutions

When a client selects a payment method, the gateway encrypts and routes the data, verifies funds, and completes the transaction. Some gateways require a linked merchant account to settle funds. Others (e.g., PayPal) handle settlement directly.

Gateways determine which methods are available, which you can configure in your platform’s settings to align with client preferences and regional requirements.
