Payments

PayKun online payments are diversified and can be well understood by the types of payment method options supported by it. Also, it becomes essential to know the types of payment transactions in order to understand what went wrong when the transactions were not a success or what is the meaning of the specific type of transaction.

Different Payment Methods

The customers can be given the various payment options with the gateway checkout. They are allowed to pay with whichever payment method they want from NetBanking, Debit Cards-Credit Cards (Master Card, Visa, AMEX, Diners Club, RuPay), Wallets, UPI/BHIM, QR Code, etc.

The customer’s dropping off at the checkout is mainly due to non-availability of their preferred payment option or an alternative payment option. They would need an alternate payment method if any of the other is facing down time. At that time, the customer would leave the site without making the payment. So it is always best if they can pay in any other way. For example, if Debit Card faces any issues then the customer could pay with the wallet.
