Gateways Settings

Gateways connect the system to online payment providers, so customer payments taken digitally are captured, tracked and ready to reconcile. Activating a gateway opens its own configuration page where you enter your merchant credentials.

Accessing Gateway Settings

Go to Banking > Settings > Gateways.

Available Gateway Plugins

Several major international and regional providers ship with the system. Which are useful depends on your country and the currencies you accept — a gateway that does not support your currency cannot settle into your account.

Managing Plugins

Each gateway carries an Activate link. Activating renders that provider's configuration page; deactivating stops it processing without discarding what you configured.

Gateway Configuration (Example: CCAvenue)

Configuration differs per provider, but the shape is the same. Taking CCAvenue as the example, activating it renders a page asking for the merchant credentials CCAvenue issued you, the operating mode, and the account settled funds are recorded against.

Integration Workflow

1. Activate the gateway and enter your merchant credentials.
2. Test a payment in test mode before going live.
3. Customers pay online; transactions are captured automatically.
4. Review them in Gateway Data.
5. Reconcile the net settlement against your bank statement.

Gateways settle net of fees. The customer pays the gross, the provider deducts its charge, and your bank receives the difference — so the deposit will not match the invoice unless the fee is recorded. Gateway Data is where that gap is visible.
