Frequently asked questions

Multiple integration paths are available: RESTful APIs, language-specific SDKs, hosted checkout components, and embedded payment pages. These options cover card, ACH, digital wallets, and in-person terminal payments across any platform. Forte.js provides lightweight client-side tokenization and offers an embeddable iframe overlay, giving engineering teams flexibility to match their existing architecture.

Multiple monetization models are available: referral partners earn revenue share by connecting clients to the platform; reseller and payment facilitation-as-a-service (PFaaS) models offer customizable fees, billing, and funding structures; and both full registered payment facilitation and PFaaS models allow platforms to set their own merchant pricing and capture the largest share of transaction fee revenue as they take on more ownership of the payment process.

The cloud-native infrastructure is built to scale elastically with growing transaction volumes and merchant portfolios, supporting over 99.99% uptime and processing billions of transactions annually. Partnership models evolve from referral to PFaaS to full payment facilitation as platforms mature, with no need for re-architecture, and sub-merchant onboarding is supported with automated KYC/KYB workflows.
