How does Credit Card Processing function?
Credit card processing means accepting payments
with credit cards and processing them to settle
in merchant accounts. Whenever the customer
makes payments to merchants with the help of
credit cards the payment information comprising
of the credit card number, date of expiry, CVV,
etc are carried out through card channels via
payment gateway which is then sent to payment
processors. The payment processors forward these
details to card partners like VISA, MASTER CARD,
etc to check whether the details are correct and
the transaction is possible with the available
balance limit. The response is quick and if
everything is legitimate the information is
forwarded back to the processors. The
processors then debits the amount and transfers
it to the merchants account. The transaction
confirmation receipt is sent to both merchants as
well as customers. In case payment fails due to
insufficient balance, wrong details of cards,
network failure the same information is again
sent to both prompting customers to repeat
payment with correct details or use another card
in case of insufficient limit balance.
