What we support

Card schemes

Visa, Mastercard, AMEX, and JCB are supported.

Transaction types

  • One-time e-commerce payments.

  • Recurring payments (subscription-style charging).

Availability can vary by acquirer, merchant profile, and risk review.

Authentication (3DS)

3DS adds an extra authentication step for the cardholder.

Use 3DS to reduce unauthorized transaction risk.

Acquiring options

  • Finpay can provide more than one acquirer option.

  • This helps with you to choose your preferred acquirer based on the card schemes coverage and rates

Payment flows

Standard card payment flow (high level)

  1. Customer enters card details on your checkout.

  2. Finpay routes the transaction to the configured acquirer.

  3. You receive the transaction result and show the outcome.

3DS flow (high level)

  1. Customer is redirected or challenged for authentication.

  2. Authentication result is returned to continue authorization.

  3. Authorization result is returned to your checkout.

Recurring payment flow (high level)

  1. Customer completes the first payment and consent.

  2. You trigger subsequent charges on the agreed schedule.

  3. Each charge returns a success or failure result.

Operations

Onboarding checklist (business view)
