Is wallee a payment gateway?

Yes, but a special one. We offer you two integration possibilities:

You have the option to connect directly to our integrated credit card acquirers and payment methods. In this case we offer a very competitive pricing and you can directly sign the different contracts in your account.

Alternatively you have the option to connect the same API to a huge number of integrated payment processors.

Our pricing is very simple: Wallee only charges you a small monthly fee for the support and maintenance of the platform and plugins and a very tiny transaciton fee. Depending on your integration model there are additional percentage or fixed costs with the payment processors.

How do we decide which new integrations to add?

Addionnal integrations are added based on number of merchants connected to a gateway and customer support as well as strategic partnerships with the different payment providers.

If you are missing your integration there is a huge chance that we have scheduled an integration already. However, we are always happy to hear your inputs. Please post your ideas and suggestions into our ideas board.

In case you are a payment service provider yourself and you are interested in a partnership and the gateway support you can find more information on our payment service provider program page.

Everything around PCI

wallee is a PCI level 1 compliant payment provider. This guarantees that your information is securely stored based on the latest valid best-practice guidelines developed by the major credit card brands. This also allows us to collect payment information of your store in our payment forms on your behalf.

By using our payment page or iframe integration we ensure that the sensitive data never touches your servers. As a merchant, you generally have to ensure PCI compliance yourself if you process credit card data. In case you use wallee this can be done very easily because your server never touches sensitive cardholder data. You can advise your payment provider that you need to fill out the Self-Assessment-Questionnaire (SAQ - A).

In case your provider asks you to provide our Attestation of Compliance (AOC) you can find the relevant PCI documents and more information on the questionnaire and the process generally on our PCI page.

What currencies does wallee support?

wallee supports every known currency.

You can accept charges in your country’s supported currencies from almost any credit card and debit card no matter where your customer lives. However, it is possible that your customers in other countries may be charged additional fees by their bank. Those fees are either bank conversion fees or foreign transaction fees. The currency that is paid to your acquiring bank account depends on your acquiring contract / scheme contract. In case you want to change this, we advise you to get in touch with your payment processor.

Does wallee supports subscription / recurring payments?

Yes, wallee offers you two different ways to bill a customer for recurring payments:

1. You can use Charge Flows where the payment is triggered and scheduled by the merchant. This is mainly the case for subscriptions involving physical products where you do want to check inventory first.
2. The second option is to use the Subscriptions feature whenever the handling of subscribers, product versions including price calculations etc. should be scheduled by us.

More information can be found in the Subscriptions Documentation.
