Illustrative processing flow. Reach coordinates partner-delivered capabilities as an ISO/reseller and is not the licensed processor or acquirer.

Acceptance model

Connect checkout, processing and finance operations.

A useful processing design starts with the customer journey, then maps the gateway, payment methods, recurring rules, refunds and settlement records needed to operate it.

Customer journey
Online checkout, wallets and recurring payment moments documented from initiation through confirmation
Service route
The responsible gateway, processor and acquirer roles identified before implementation
Operating record
Authorizations, refunds, settlements and reconciliation information returned to merchant teams

Processing capabilities

Scope the payment methods and operations as one system.

Reach coordinates requirements with the relevant providers so technical, commercial and operating responsibilities are visible before the merchant accepts the proposed route.

Online card acceptance

Shape card-not-present acceptance around the merchant website, customer journey and transaction profile.

  • Document authorization, capture, refund and failure paths across the checkout.
  • Confirm processing and acquiring responsibilities in the applicable provider documents.
02

Gateways and checkout

Connect the merchant-controlled experience to the selected gateway without obscuring system ownership.

  • Map checkout handoffs, payment status messages and administrative access.
  • Align implementation responsibilities across merchant, platform and provider teams.
03

Wallets and recurring billing

Include wallet and stored-credential journeys where they support the approved ecommerce or subscription model.

  • Define initial payment, renewal, update, cancellation and refund experiences.
  • Confirm the selected provider flow and merchant obligations before launch.
04

Onboarding and settlement visibility

Coordinate the information needed for provider review and the records finance needs after transactions settle.

  • Prepare business, website, ownership and processing context for the responsible provider.
  • Define how settlement, fees, refunds and exceptions will be reviewed and reconciled.
