Payment systems are an automated complex that processes information about transactions received from various payment systems. It acts as an intermediary between the buyer and the seller on the Internet and can be connected to almost any trading platform. It is already difficult to imagine a modern online store without the possibility of online payment - it is convenient for the store owner, fast for the buyer and safe from the point of view of cyber security. We figured out what Ukrainian payment systems offer to sites and their clients. Below you can find an overview of popular payment systems and the terms of their connection to your site.

Interkassa is a universal payment system for the site, designed to automate the acceptance of payments on various Internet resources that carry out trade in services or goods. During payment on any site connected to the Interkassa payment gateway, redirection to this system occurs automatically. After redirection, the user should choose the currency for payment and complete the transaction. In case of successful payment, the system sends an SMS or server message to the seller. To confirm the payment, the buyer needs to enter an SMS password.

To connect the site to Interkassa, you need to register in the system, create the first cash register and add a store, then add a logo and choose the necessary payment tools.
