Server to Server
What it is
By requesting the credit card details on the webshop, a ‘direct’ transaction can be created. Customers can finalize a credit card payment without being redirected to the payment page of MultiSafepay, resulting in a faster checkout experience and a higher level of control from the merchant’s perspective.
