Visa Checkout is a digital payment service designed to simplify the checkout experience using a secure, single sign-on across channels and devices using a customer's preferred payment method.
Shoppers who use Visa Checkout can store their card information on Visa's secure service and - when shopping on your online store - can simply select the Visa Checkout option, sign into their Visa Checkout account, select their payment method and have it automatically populated on the cart to complete their order.
Note
Visa Checkout is NOT a payment gateway service which charges and collects payment. Instead, it will securely populate the customer's billing and card information onto the final checkout pages of the store. As a merchant, you will still need to have a payment gateway which will handle the actual charging and collection of the credit card funds.
Shift4Shop has made the integration process as easy as possible by allowing you to set up Visa Checkout directly through your Shift4Shop Online Store Manager.
First, you will need to register your store with Visa Checkout. To do this, follow these steps.
