2. The payment gateway verifies the customer’s payment information and communicates with the issuing bank or financial institution.
3. Upon successful authorization, the payment gateway processes the transaction and sends a confirmation back to 4Geeks Payments.
4. Then 4Geeks Payments records the payment and updates the customer’s account accordingly.

Start accepting online payments¶

In order to accept online payments you need an activated Payments service account. 4Geeks Payments provides multiple ways to integrate to mobile apps, websites and platforms:

• no-code tools
• payments on your website

No-code tools¶

It is relatively easy to accept online payments via no-code tools. There are several no-code platforms that offer built-in payment processing capabilities, such as Squarespace, Shopify, Wix, and Weebly. These platforms allow users to create online stores or websites and accept payments without the need for extensive technical knowledge or coding skills.

We’ve made it easy to accept payments without the hassle of developing complex transactional systems. You don’t need technical knowledge or expensive equipment to start accepting online payments in your online store, billing software or customer management system.

If you’re looking for 4Geeks Payments integration and don’t want to go through the hassle of technical programming knowledge, then look no further than our list of platforms. There’s no limit to the type of business you have or how long it’s taken you to get started.

Payments integrated on your website¶

The simplest way to integrate 4Geeks on custom websites or platforms, is to use one of the plugins for any of the available platforms such as Wordpress/WooCommerce, Magento, Odoo, etc.

Alternatively we provide third-parties client libraries that you can use to integrate the API with your platform in a few lines of code. These libraries are maintained and supported, for the most part, by the community, for languages such as Ruby on Rails, Python, . NET and Go. However, you can always consume the API using HTTP methods, or write your own libraries.

The following example is a simple charge, which does not require you to register cards or customers.

curl 'https://api.4geeks.io/v1/charges/simple/create/' \
    -X POST \
    -H 'authorization: bearer PdSKf04xi9LEcvcwIAdbWAXVg380Kz' \
    -F 'amount=800.55' \
    -F 'description=Desc for Simple' \
    -F 'entity_description=Desc for Simple' \
    -F 'currency=usd' \
    -F 'credit_card_number=4242424242424242' \
    -F 'credit_card_security_code_number=123' \
    -F 'exp_month=11' \
    -F 'exp_year=2020'
