Modern merchant services, zero operational burden

Deliver a modern, all-in-one merchant services offering—including ACH, gateway, card acceptance support, digital payment tools, and fraud prevention—without adding operational burden.

Solutions

A complete payments portfolio, backed by an expert partner

Let CSG Payments handle the heavy lifting, from technical integration to merchant onboarding and support, so you can focus on growing deposits, improving retention, and increasing customer lifetime value.

Give your customers the payment tools they expect

Let them make payments from anywhere. Accept credit, debit, digital wallets, and low-cost ACH across online, mobile, text-to-pay, and in-person channels.

  • Eliminate the need for multiple vendors by supporting a variety of payment methods and channels.

  • Seamlessly process all of these diverse transactions types through one unified system.

A flexible, processor-agnostic gateway

Fill the gaps in your existing card-only services with CSG Payments’ advanced gateway orchestration and robust ACH processing capabilities.

  • Enable the seamless integration of additional FIs to support new payment channels or complex workflows with minimal operational lift.

  • Seamlessly integrate your point-of-sale (POS) systems to capture purchase data, process payments, and schedule recurring transactions through secure channels.

  • Manage ACH transactions and all other accepted payment types within one unified platform. 

Enterprise-grade security and compliance

Protect your institution and customers with a secure, PCI Level 1-certified platform featuring tokenization, end-to-end encryption, and real-time account verification.

  • Remove sensitive, at-risk data from your network and POS with CSG Payments Protect, an end-to-end encryption and tokenization solution.

  • Get on-the-spot verification to ensure a customer’s account is open and valid with CSG Payments Verify, drastically reducing the risk and operational cost of returned items.

  • Instantly authenticate routing and account numbers, verify positive account status, and screen payments against a national database of millions to block known bad actors.

  • Built-in account defense protects against Account Takeovers (ATO) by using authentication tools to proactively block fake signups.

Security

Built-in trust for a connected world

Digital transformation that’s as safe as it is swift, from secure cloud deployments that protect subscriber data to automated fraud testing that stops revenue leakage before it starts.
