How does payment processing work?
It is a process that allows accepting electronic payments for goods and services via the POS-terminal or the online websites. There are main actors that take part in it: a customer, a merchant, payment service provider, card-issuing bank, acquiring bank, and a card company. This is how it goes: a customer finds something they want to buy in a shop or an online store. If it is the former, a client uses POS-terminal to pay: either swipe their card, or with a contactless chip. In some cases, the card is required to enter the PIN to complete the purchase. But if they buy something online, the process differs: the customer needs to enter their card details into the payment form on the website. If a merchant uses 3D Secure, the client is required to confirm the transaction — via the OTP, password, or biometric data. The payment request is sent to the company’s payment processor, which then redirects it to the card association. The request then reaches the issuing bank. The latter decides whether to approve the transaction or not. The approval/disapproval is redirected back to the merchant.
How long does it take payment to process?
The initial transaction approval process described above depends on many factors and sometimes takes seconds to complete or up to a few days. More about Genome’s settlement periods, payout hold, and other relevant information here.
