1. Integration mode
How you collect card details — on PayGlocal’s hosted page (Checkout Flow / PayCollect) or in your own UI (Seamless Flow / PayDirect).
2. Payment type
What kind of payment you run — Regular, Recurring, Auth & Capture, or CodeDrop. These work with either mode.
Step 1 — Choose an Integration Mode
The deciding question: who collects the card details — you or PayGlocal?Checkout Flow (PayCollect)
PayGlocal collects card details on a secure hosted page. You send a request and never touch card data.→ No PCI DSS certification needed.Checkout Flow (PayCollect) details →
Seamless Flow (PayDirect)
You collect card details in your own checkout UI and send them to PayGlocal. No redirect.→ Requires PCI DSS certification.Seamless Flow (PayDirect) details →
Step 2 — Choose Your Payment Types
Payment types are mode-agnostic — each works with Checkout Flow (PayCollect) or Seamless Flow (PayDirect).Regular Payment
One-time, immediate payments — status tracking and refunds.
Recurring Payment
Standing Instructions — Auto Debit and On-Demand mandate flows.
Auth & Capture
Hold funds now, capture when you’re ready to fulfill.
CodeDrop
Embed the payment form on your page — no full-page redirect.
