What is a Payment Gateway?

A payment gateway is an e-commerce application service provider service that authorizes credit
card payments for e-businesses, online retailers, bricks and clicks, or traditional brick and
mortar.
A payment gateway facilitates the transfer of information between a payment portal (such as a
website, mobile phone or interactive voice response service) and the Front End Processor or
acquiring bank.
A payment gateway is an ecommerce service that processes credit card payments for online and
traditional brick and mortar stores. Payment gateways facilitate these transactions by transferring
key information between payment portals such as web-enabled mobile devices/websites and the
front end processor/bank.
Payment gateways fulfill a vital role in the ecommerce transaction process, authorizing the
payment between merchant and customer. Popular payment gateways include PayPal/Braintree,
Stripe, and Square.
Providers
There are more than 900 payment providers around the world. More than 300 offer services in
Europe and North-America.
Typical transaction processes
When a customer orders a product from a Payment Gateway-enabled merchant, the payment
gateway performs a variety of tasks to process the transaction.

1. A customer places order on website by pressing the 'Submit Order' or equivalent button,
or perhaps enters their card details using an automatic phone answering service.
2. If the order is via a website, the customer's web browser encrypts the information to be
sent between the browser and the merchant's webserver. In between other methods, this
may be done via SSL (Secure Socket Layer) encryption. The payment gateway may
allow transaction data to be sent directly from the customer's browser to the gateway,
bypassing the merchant's systems. This reduces the merchant's Payment Card Industry
Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) compliance obligations without redirecting the
customer away from the website.
3. The merchant then forwards the transaction details to their payment gateway. This is
another (SSL) encrypted connection to the payment server hosted by the payment
gateway.
4. The payment gateway forwards the transaction information to the payment processor
used by the merchant's acquiring bank.
5. The payment processor forwards the transaction information to the card association (e.g.,
Visa/MasterCard/American Express). If an American Express or Discover Card was used,
then the card association also acts as the issuing bank and directly provides a response of
approved or declined to the payment gateway. Otherwise [e.g.: a MasterCard or Visa card
was used], the card association routes the transaction to the correct card issuing bank.
6. The credit card issuing bank receives the authorization request and credit or debit checks
and then sends a response back to the processor (via the same process as the request for
authorization) with a response code [e.g.: approved, denied]. In addition to
communicating the fate of the authorization request, the response code is used to define
the reason why the transaction failed (such as insufficient funds, or bank link not
available). Meanwhile, the credit card issuer holds an authorization associated with that
merchant and consumer for the approved amount. This can impact the consumer's ability
to further spend (e.g.: because it reduces the line of credit available or because it puts a
hold on a portion of the funds in a debit account).
7. The processor forwards the authorization response to the payment gateway
8. The payment gateway receives the response, and forwards it on to the website (or
whatever interface was used to process the payment) where it is interpreted as a relevant
response then relayed back to the merchant and cardholder. This is known as the
Authorization or "Auth"
9. The entire process typically takes 23 seconds.

10. The merchant then fulfills the order and the above process can be repeated but this time
to "Clear" the authorization by consummating the transaction. Typically, the "Clear" is
initiated only after the merchant has fulfilled the transaction (e.g.: shipped the order).
This results in the issuing bank 'clearing' the 'auth' (i.e.: moves auth-hold to a debit) and
prepares them to settle with the merchant acquiring bank.
11. The merchant submits all their approved authorizations, in a "batch" (e.g.: end of day), to
their acquiring bank for settlement via its processor. This typically reduces or "Clears"
the corresponding "Auth" if it has not been explicitly "Cleared".
12. The acquiring bank makes the batch settlement request of the credit card issuer.
13. The credit card issuer makes a settlement payment to the acquiring bank (e.g.: the next
day)
14. The acquiring bank subsequently deposits the total of the approved funds into the
merchant's nominated account (e.g.: the day after). This could be an account with the
acquiring bank if the merchant does their banking with the same bank, or an account with
another bank.
15. The entire process from authorization to settlement to funding typically takes 3 days.
Many payment gateways also provide tools to automatically screen orders for fraud and calculate
tax in real time prior to the authorization request being sent to the processor. Tools to detect fraud
include geolocation, velocity pattern analysis, OFAC list lookups, 'black-list' lookups, delivery
address verification, computer finger printing technology, identity morphing detection, and basic
AVS checks.

Payment gateways vs. Merchant account.


It is important to understand that payment gateways, just as POS terminals, are tools for handling
payment information. Just as the POS terminal is a part of each retail merchant account, the
payment gateway is an essential part of every e-commerce merchant account. Yet, the merchant
account service goes beyond handling the information provided by the cardholder. It enables a
merchant to accept credit and debit cards, as well as other payment methods, by connecting the
merchants physical and / or virtual check-out tools with a processing bank that acquires the
transactions and funds the merchants account the transaction amount, after subtracting the
transactions processing costs. This whole process, from the capturing of the information at the
point of sale (whether physical or virtual), to the settlement of the funds is what a merchant
account service provides.

How does a payment gateways work ?

When a customer places an order from an online store, the payment gateway performs several
tasks to finalize the transaction:

Encryption: The web browser encrypts the data to be sent between it and the vendor's
web server. The gateway then sends the transaction data to the payment processor utilized
by the vendor's acquiring bank.

Authorization Request: The payment processor sends the transaction data to a card
association. The credit card's issuing bank views the authorization request and approves
or denies.

Filling the Order: The processor then forwards an authorization pertaining to the
merchant and consumer to the payment gateway. Once the gateway obtains this response,
it transmits it to the website/interface to process the payment. Here, it is interpreted and
an appropriate response is generated. This seemingly complicated and lengthy process
typically takes only a few seconds at most. At this point, the merchant fills the order.

Clearing Transactions :The steps outlined above are repeated in an effort to clear the authorization via a
consummation of the transaction. However, the clearing is only triggered once the merchant has
actually completed the transaction (shipping the order). The issuing bank changes the authhold to a debit, allowing a settlement with the vendor's acquiring bank. The processor is then
relied upon to settle all of the vendor's approved authorizations with the acquiring bank at the
end of the day.

Other Payment Gateway Functions


Payment gateways also screen orders with a myriad of helpful tools. This screening process
filters out as much fraud as possible. Examples of gateway fraud detection tools include:

Delivery address verification

AVS checks

Computer finger printing technology,

Velocity pattern analysis

Identity morphing detection

Geolocation

Payment gateways even calculate tax amounts to authorize requests transmitted to the processor.
Payment gateways fulfill a vital role in the ecommerce transaction process, authorizing the
payment between merchant and customer. Popular payment gateways include PayPal/Braintree,
Stripe, and Square.
Payment gateways facilitates the transfer of information between a payment portal (such as a
website, mobile phone or interactive voice response service) and the Front End Processor or
acquiring bank.
The payment gateways performs a variety of tasks to process the transaction.

FINDINGS
The IndiaMart is lacking in the areas of services promotion, it should
redesign its promotional strategies to capture more market.

The company will have to provide the customer experts knowledge in


broader way i.e. to each needful person when needed.
The customer who are going to enter into share trading are not willing to
pay any charge for opening the Dmat and trading account.
The company should lower its brokerage charge in order to gain more
customers.
The company should increase the number of advertisement through
various media to remind present as well as to aware new customer about
its services.
The company should solve the problems of the customers quickly
because delay in this will make them dissatisfied and they will not
provide the reference of any customers.
The company should organize seminars for new as well as existing
customer in order to make existing customer delight by providing some
gifts. This will act as a customer acquisition program.

LIMITATIONS
Following are some limitations which affect our performance in the
organization. Indiamart.com is providing eminent facilities so as to

increase and maintain the performance of each and every employee in


the organization.
The basic problem that everyone faces today is of recession. The
same case is with small scale sectors. The most likely argument is
not getting enough return on their investment so its difficult for us
to invest at this point of time.
Some of the customers are satisfied with the present status of their
business. They dont want to expand further due to limited
resources or lack of vision and like to avoid risk. For e.g. if
company gets regular order from government, shows no interest to
online promotional services.
The price factor also plays key role in generating leads because
aware customers are likely to respond to that services which offer
maximum advantage at minimum cost. For e.g. tradeindia.com
provides almost same services but at considerably low amount as
compared toindiamart.com.
Some of the clients are not able to afford the cost or price
thatindiamart.com offers. It necessitates keeping record of their
status at regular interval. For e.g. with the help of appointment at
regular intervals, the probability of converting the prospect into
regular client can be found out.
Many of the clients had bad experiences as a result they have
withdrawn from it. The most likely reasons are unsatisfactory
inquiries and fake inquiries. Some of them had suffered heavy
losses by accepting those fake inquires.

Most of the organizations are controlled from their respective


headquarters as a result the decision remains pending for a long
period of time. Regular follow up is required to maintain their
proper status.
The absence of respective departmental head because of meetings
oron leave requires follow up on continuous basis.
Some of the clients are very satisfied with their business as they
aregenerating enough business locally.

CONCLUSION
The main purpose of Summer Internship Program (SIP) is to gain
practical knowledge and apply our skills in practical and real
environment.

It is the time when we have to sharpen our skills, abilities and


knowledge which would help me in getting final placement.
In Indiamart.com, I have got an opportunity to explore my potential. By
preparing extensive research reports we have attained fundamental
knowledge of online promotional services, its scope and its importance
in coming years.
I have also come across various technicalities related to online
promotional services.
I am very confident that after completing my internship in
Indiamart.com Company I would have mastered in various online
promotional services.
