Payment Gateway Compliance for Online Sellers comes up with a lot of questions, especially for online businesses setting up or managing payment collection dealing with it for the first time. Here are clear answers to what we're asked most often.
Can I store customer card details on my own servers?
Generally this is restricted under applicable norms — most businesses rely on the payment gateway's compliant infrastructure instead.
How long does gateway settlement typically take?
This varies by provider and agreement, so it's worth comparing before choosing one.
What is a chargeback?
A reversal of a transaction initiated by the customer's bank, usually due to a dispute.
Do small businesses need the same compliance as large ones?
Core security and KYC requirements generally apply regardless of business size, though scale can affect specific obligations.
Still Have Questions?
Every business situation is a little different, and Payment Gateway Compliance for Online Sellers is no exception. If your case doesn't fit neatly into the questions above, it's worth getting a second opinion before proceeding.
What You'll Typically Need
