What’s New:
Enabling the developer

n today's business world, payment gateways and software integrations go
hand in hand. In fact, it's now typical for a merchant of any size to seek out a
processing partner using a gateway that integrates to at least one of the main
I software programs they regularly use. Depending on the business vertical, this
program could be the customer's accounting package, resource management (CRM)
program, point of sale (POS) or inventory application, or an enterprise resource
planning (ERP) platform.

"As an established payments gateway company, we've seen business technologies
evolve a great deal over the years," said Vlad Galyuz, Vice President of Product
Development at USAePay. "Software integrations are now a key component of
our service model and we do everything possible to make our APIs (application
programming interfaces) accessible and easy to integrate for the software developer."

test any new technology prior to taking it live into the end user environment in the world of integrations, it hasn't always
been so simple.

"Ideally, when someone is integrating a payment technology within their business software, the developer will run a
series of tests to ensure the coding has been done properly," Galyuz continued. "It's now customary to simulate the
transaction process during development in a sandbox environment to ensure the API coding and any custom features

According to Galyuz, the sandbox is also useful to the developer when the merchant hasn't completed setup of a live
gateway account. Access to the sandbox gives the developer a jumpstart on the gateway integration, so there is minimal
delay once the merchant account is live. Since the sandbox environment mimics most of the characteristics of a live
