PayTrace Payment Gateway

As of September 1, 2023, PayTrace payment gateway will no longer be available to new customers. Current customers who use the PayTrace payment gateway can continue to use it.

PayTrace is a third-party payment gateway service integrated with Gotransverse. Bank draft (ACH) and credit card payments are supported. Gotransverse also leverages PayTrace client-side encryption that enables securely collecting client payment information via the web browser. This ensures that only PayTrace can decrypt the payment information while also reducing PCI scope and removing any redirects to outside payment windows. PayTrace supports tokenized operations through their client-side encryption flow. Customers using PayTrace will be required to incorporate PayTrace's client-side encryption prior to passing the encrypted payment information to Gotransverse. Refer to Client-Side Encryption link to an external web site to learn more information about PayTrace's client-side encryption.

To use client-side encryption, set the Tokenized Credit Cards Payment Methods system setting to TRUE. Refer to System Settings for more information about how to configure system settings in the Admin application.
