Payment processing plays a fundamental role in every eCommerce business solution and there are a lot of factors to be taken care of while integrating a payment processing gateway with a mobile application. Authorize.Net simplifies this process by providing a secure, reliable and fast payment gateway service and makes integration to mobile application easier by masking the complex backend processes. Integrating Authorize.Net with a mobile app not only enables the merchant to collect payments from customers through credit card or an e-check processing but also securely manages customer transactions, handles account settings like viewing statements getting periodic reports and much more.

The Authorize.Net SDK offers an easy approach to collect payments over the mobile devices. This provides a fast and easy way for developers to integrate mobile payments without having to write the boilerplate code themselves which is necessary to communicate with the Authorize.Net gateway. The platform’s Customer Information Manager (CIM) enables the users to tokenize and store their customers’ sensitive payment information on Authorize.Net’s secure servers, simplifying the PCI DSS compliance as well as the payments process for repeat customers and recurring transactions. There is also an Advanced Fraud Detection Suite that identifies, manages and prevents suspicious fraudulent transactions.

This allows mobile developers to provide credit card payment functionality within the iOS applications, without having to pass sensitive card data to the application backend servers. At the time of enrolment, Authorize.Net replaces the cardholder’s card number with a token that can be used with the merchant’s application for payment processing enhancing security.
