How Online Payments Work

Now let’s take a look at where the high risk payment gateway fits into the e-commerce transaction process. Here is what happens from the moment a customer hits “Place Order” at the checkout of an e-commerce website to the receiving of confirmation:

1. The customer provides her card account information for payment.
2. The information is SSL-encrypted and sent to the merchant’s web server.
3. The payment gateway collects the data, SSL-encrypts it once more and transmits it to the acquirer’s server.
4. The acquirer, in turn, transmits the data to Visa’s or MasterCard’s (the Association) payment system.
5. The Association transmits the data on to the card issuer.
6. The issuer either approves or declines authorization for the transaction and sends its response back to the acquirer.
7. The acquirer sends the issuer’s response on to the payment gateway.
8. The payment gateway transmits the authorization response to the e-commerce website where it is displayed to the cardholder.

If the issuer has approved the authorization request, the transaction is completed. If it has declined it, procedures vary, but the customer should be asked for an alternative form of payment. For Discover and American Express transactions the process is much simpler, as the issuer and the acquirer are one and the same. In practice, this means that stages 4 through 6 from the above list would be combined into one.
