Building the Complete Payment Solution

If you are planning to build a payment solution for your business, then i need to make sure that it satisfies all the requirements of one. Building a payment solution is different from building an app or a solution for the entertainment or the travel industry. This is because to use a payment solution, a customer needs to trust it more than the established players out there.



This means that your website needs to have the right security credentials for it to be taken seriously by the user. This brings us to the first requirement, namely the PCI-DSS certificate. PCI-DSS is short for payment card industry - data security standard and is the security compliance that is accepted and recognized by almost all payment card users as a benchmark for security. It provides a framework for the prevention, detection and proper reaction to security incidents.

When you make a payment solution, you need to ensure that the user has multiple options to make his or her payment. Does your payment solution offer support for all debit, credit cards? Does it support Cash cards, netbanking and mWallets? Does it support email invoicing and IVR payments?

Your payment solution needs to provide the user with the ability to make fast and secure payments without a website. This is made possible with email payments where you can just send an email to your customers asking them to click and pay. Also make sure that your payment solution has mobile payments integrated with intelligent APIs that determine your handset and browsing in real time.


MPI Integration is another important feature that you need to enable if your online payment solution is to attract customers. The MPI feature enables your payment solution to run on any technology or platform. And once you incorporate validation functionality with the merchant web pages and make password authentication and cardholder verification integral to your payment process, you can well claim to have a complete payment solution.
