Process Payments Better with ERP Integration

Because many payment hub providers don't connect to ERPs, companies must batch-capture credit card payments on the day items ship rather than when clients place their orders.

Payment portals, which can be both a merchant portal and buying portal, can process wholesale rates and qualify for Level III PCI data, but companies need to process transactions from other sources too (e.g., POS, events, donations, online bill pay, etc.).

That's why we built Clarity Payment Hub™. The payment hub can integrate with any ERP and payment source and can capture funds from any orders, bills, or invoices that need processing.

Key Takeaways
  • A payment hub is a centralized platform or system that consolidates and manages various payment channels and methods for businesses. It serves as a hub or focal point for processing and controlling payments from different sources, such as online channels, point-of-sale (POS) systems, mobile devices, and other payment interfaces.
  • Payment hubs facilitate the integration and management of multiple payment service providers and different channels (PSPs) for incoming and outgoing payments, and support various payment types, currencies, and transaction methods.
  • By providing a unified view of payment transactions, payment hubs enable businesses to streamline their payment operations, reduce complexity, and enhance financial control.
  • A payment hub helps businesses optimize payment processing for all payment types, improve efficiency, and gain better visibility into their overall payment performance. A centralized hub also allows for easier integration with new payment technologies and the flexibility to adapt to changing customer preferences and market trends.

PCI DSS Compliance

Tokens – Clarity's payment hub wallet is PCI compliant. When customers save their credit card information, the payment hub speaks to the PCI provider and gets a token to store for that card.

Auto-Process – This way, your company isn't storing credit card data during or after the payment process. Instead, you have the token, which allows you to automatically batch process orders on your customer's card when you ship their order.

ExpressPay Registration

Register Cards – Signing up for expressPay allows your customers to register their credit cards, which store the token so you can batch real-time payments for them as soon as their order ships.

Manual vs Automatic – Without registration, you won't have their card or token on file and will have to manually call them to process any credit card payments.

Data Accuracy

Up-to-Date Info – Since your customers will register for expressPay and have access to their invoices, they will be able to keep their contact information accurate on their profile, lowering typos and data issues when they deposit data within your ERP. It also lets you quickly view sales volume so that you can make better buying decisions.

What is PCI DSS compliance?

Our payments hub ensures that customer information is protected with encryption and PCI compliance, the highest standard for security and data protection for local payments, global payments, and corporate payments.

PCI DSS compliance is a merchant account requirement that companies cannot store credit card numbers. To process credit card payments, companies integrate with a PCI provider, which verifies the card entered and hands a token back to the store, which refers to a specific card for all future purchases. This acts as another way to reduce payment fraud.

In order for the payment hubs to automatically batch-process orders for individual or corporate payments, the tokens for the cards linked to those orders need to be on file.


Where is Clarity Payment Hub™ installed?

Clarity Payment Hub™ can be an on-premises or cloud-based modular payment solution, whatever works best for your business.

What are the benefits of a payments hub?

The first benefit of a payment hub is that it provides a centralized platform for managing multiple payment channels with financial institutions, enabling businesses to streamline their payment operations and reduce complexity. It also allows for the consolidation of various payment methods, currencies, and payment service providers (PSPs), simplifying the integration and management processes. It's also an excellet way to help prevent payment fraud.

A payments hub also provides a unified view of all payment transactions, facilitating better visibility and control over financial data. This helps businesses deposit data to improve reconciliation processes, track payments more efficiently, better cash management, receive instant payments, and gain insights into their overall payment performance.


What is the difference between a payment hub and a payment gateway?

A payment gateway is a technology that acts as a bridge between an online merchant and the financial institutions involved in processing transactions. Payment hub vendors help businesses securely transmit transaction data—such as instant payments—from the merchant's website or application to acquiring bank accounts, payment processors, or other financial institutions.

Payments hubs ensure the encryption of sensitive data, verifies transaction details, and facilitates the authorization and settlement processes. It enables businesses to accept various payment methods, such as credit cards, debit cards, and digital wallets, and other payment types, all while helping streamline the payment flow. This can be done for local, regional, and global payments.

On the other hand, payment hubs are centralized platforms or systems that consolidate multiple payment channels and provide a unified view and management of various payment types. It serves as a hub for processing and managing payments from different sources, such as online channels, point-of-sale (POS) systems, mobile devices, and other payment interfaces. A payments hub allows businesses to handle diverse payment methods, currencies, and payment service providers (PSPs) through a single interface. It often includes features like transaction routing, reconciliation, reporting, and fraud management. Both can help in the prevention of payment fraud.
