Merchant Link’s e-commerce solutions provide all the security and flexibility you need to process payments online and in card-not-present environments.

Integration Options

Merchants can integrate to our payment gateway for e-commerce transactions via DirectAPI or Hosted Payment Form.

• Our Hosted Payment Form option significantly lowers risk, PCI scope and cost by preventing merchant exposure to cardholder data.
• Our DirectAPI option lets you collect and send cardholder data, enabling a variety of applications including websites, mobile apps, IVR, call center transactions, and MOTO (mail order, telephone order).

Seamless TransactionVault^® Integration

Merchant Link’s e-commerce solutions are integrated with our TransactionVault tokenization solution to protect data residing on your network and enable seamless support and reporting services for multiple payment types and data streams.

TransactionVault utilizes card-based, or multi-use tokens, meaning that within a brand, the same token is assigned to a customer credit card regardless of where, when or how it is input. This assists merchants with customer analytics, folio consolidation and marketing efforts, as well as loss prevention.
