Payment channels

BillPro channels can create a separate configuration and payment flow for different transactions.

In an ecommerce channel, you can accept payments with Payment links and iframe checkouts and with the Virtual terminal with 3D Secure (3DS) authentication always required. (Note that you can activate or deactivate the use of payment links for individual user accounts. See Manage users). In BillPro, the ecommerce channel has the abbreviation ECOM.

In a phone payments channel, you can accept payments with the Virtual terminal. By default, in the phone payments channel the virtual terminal doesn't require 3DS, and when you enter a card, you do not have to enter the CVV. (But note that most issuing banks will require 3DS when you are storing a card for recurring payments). If you send a payment link to the same customer, the payment will be processed in the ecommerce channel and it will require 3DS. In BillPro, the phone payments channel has the abbreviation MOTO for "Mail Order Telephone Order".

Channel abbreviations

The channel abbreviations of ECOM and MOTO display beside transactions and provide information about which payment processing workflow BillPro has used. If you have multiple merchant accounts, you may be able to identify the transactions processed for each account by the channel abbreviations.
