Braintree online payments


Article Summary

In order to accept online payments via Braintree for your issued documents, you need to have a Braintree account first. In case you want to create a new account, visit signups.braintreepayments.com and follow the registration instructions.

With Braintree, you can accept payments directly from your customers' credit cards while it supports multiple currencies enabling you to get paid from all around the globe. You may also receive payments from PayPal accounts, as Braintree is a PayPal company.

Note: For each currency, you need to receive payments in, you need to set up several "Merchant account ID's" in Braintree; each one processing a different currency. Each currency must have its own Braintree payment gateway inside Elorus which you can set up by following the instructions below as many times as the number of Merchant account ID's.

In case you already have a Braintree account, its integration with Elorus is quite simple. From the main menu select “Settings-> Payment gateways”. Then, click “Add” and from the list of options select Braintree.
