What is a Payment Gateway? 

Before jumping into the importance of Payment Gateways, let us first explain to you what it is. A payment gateway acts as a backbone to the cashless economy. It is an e-commerce service that plays an integral role in allowing merchants to accept credit cards, mobile wallets and other forms of internet transactions securely, by acting as a middleman between your business and the bank. 

As online shopping evolves, payment gateways utilise advanced verification and encryption technologies to ensure legitimate transactions between payment portals and the payment processor used by acquiring bank.
