Northpayments Launched New Mobile-Friendly Payment Gateway

LONDON, January 26, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --

The leading payment processor Northpayments is now offering a new, improved payment gateway. The company has launched the mobile-friendly Payment Gateway 2.0 as an upgrade of their existing gateway. It enables users to access analytics and other relevant information on the go. Payment Gateway 2.0 is currently connected to over 200 payment options and acquirers around the world and is PCI compliant which is the highest level of security. Northpayments has added an additional layer of security by using a state of the art fraud prevention system with device protection technology.

Payment Gateway 2.0 also features a new way of tokenisation. The tokenisation of cards replaces the primary account number, also referred to as PAN, with a value, also referred to as token. The only way to find out what the primary account number was is to reverse the process and to redeem the token. It is an alternative to encryption and ideal for brokers or merchants that receive recurring payments.

Payment Gateway 2.0 Integrations 

Northpayments provides the most popular plugins such as Magento, PrestaShop, and WordPress just to name a few and is currently adding to the list of available integrations on a monthly basis. The leading payment processor also offers simple payments page integration. This allows merchants to integrate payments without their clients ever leaving the page. This integration does not require any coding whatsoever.

Payment Gateway 2.0 includes a sandbox that can be used to test payment processing. It is a payment simulator that enables merchants to test payment requests on website before making the payment processor available to their respective clients. The unique terminal means that developers can easily run test payments and use it for debugging.

Merchants who want to take payments beyond online processing and need to process orders differently, such as via mail or telephone, can use Northpayments' MOTO Terminal. The terminal is mobile-friendly which allows businesses to process payments from wherever they are with a smartphone or tablet.

Northpayments Offers Whitelabel Gateways 

Northpayments provides whitelabel gateways for other payment providers and large merchants, so they can replace Northpayments' branding with their own logo. This is an opportunity for business to save resources by taking advantage of a third party gateway that is constantly updated. Some of Northpayments' most recent innovations include the anti-fraud system Fraudonomics and expanding to the nordics market by making payments via Visa, MasterCard, and American Express available to online merchants in Sweden, Finland, Norway, and Denmark.
