Chat 2 Pay allows you to embed a "node and/or extension" into multiple applications enabling you to trigger a payment request to your customers (i.e., the end-user) via those applications. Chat 2 Pay will help your business reduce operational and payment processing costs by delivering a payment request via a low-cost high-touch channel like chat.
The URL embedded in the message allows the customer to open a secure payment page where they can enter a new credit/debit card or utilize a saved credit/debit card that will be used by the merchant to process payments via the merchant's payment processor/gateway.
Chat 2 Pay is partnered with one of the most secure payments platforms across the globe, Cybersource from Visa. Chat 2 Pay is not the payment gateway. Chat 2 Pay only acts as a pass-through and routes all payments through Cybersource.
See this webpage and the Chat 2 Pay user guide for more information on the product.
