has been in the payment business
from trusted sources

13. 2. Reputation

14. 3.Software Efficiency
Every payment gateway company has
various software packages to provide to its
customers. For a good company, they must
have worked with the software for a long
time and should be able to give you a test
drive for some time.

15. 4. General cost of service
bundles
The general cost of services provided by a
payment gateway company should be open

with ambiguous tier percentage based
pricing

site

Standard (PCI DSS)

backend reporting functionality is a must-
have.
Bank reconciliation and mark off data
matching is crucial

19. 8.Shopping cart and ease of
integration
• eCommerce shopping cart software has greatly evolved
to include far more than a basic virtual shopping cart
for your customers to add products to; it offers all the
essential tools you need to manage all the facets of an
eCommerce website.
• Ensure your gateway has API’s to integrate with your
shopping cart

20. 9.Disaster and recovery
• Disaster Recovery Plan (DRP) are to protect resources and
employees, to safeguard the organization’s vital records, and
to ensure the ability to function effectively in the event of a
severe disruption to normal operating procedures. The
primary role of the DRP is to plan for response, recovery,
resumption, restoration, and return after severe disruption
