Software Application Types
To develop an application, whether it be a web app, PC client app, phone app or some other software driven device that might benefit or allow for payment processing or one of the ancillary services available through the Payment Gateway API.
There are a plethora of potential applications that are possible. And while we don’t want to place blinders on you in the way of ideas, know that PayPal was once an idea that utilized this very Payment Gateway for processing their bank transactions – and we all know where they went!
Sharpen your focus. Perhaps you already have an idea in mind. Maybe you don't. Explore different industry niches and bounce some ideas off of people you know. For some ideas of possible applications, visit the Ideas section. More importantly, submit an idea and we will discuss it with you.
You might be a software company, and industry consultant, or someone familiar with software for a specific niche. No matter the case, you could very well hold the missing piece of the puzzle to a winning development.
This category of development entails payment enabling existing software, no matter the type, via the Payment Gateway API. Many existing software developments of an open nature will allow for direct integration, while others might require a stand-alone module.
Most likely, the software will be tailored to a specific industry niche. For example, a software system for a golf club will have little use outside that industry niche. However, within that niche lie many transactions, as well as the probability that the Payment Gateway services can provide many value add benefits. To discuss ideas, submit yours or visit the forum for information there.
Third Party Service Utilization.
In the payment processing field, there are many services that can benefit a merchant client that are payment related, yet do not take part in the actual financial transaction.
An example of this might be Identity Verification or check verification. And while there is already such services present within the payment gateway API, there are always improvements that can take place.
These services provide value add propositions to clients looking to mitigate risks, verify identities and utilize data that is not typiclly found amongst a patment processor's core competancy.

Have something else in mind? We certainly hope you can shed new light upon us!
You might well have something in mind that for all we know doesn't fit into one of those three classifications. Or perhaps the classifications are just not clear to you. No matter the case, register and submit a question or an idea and we will be more then happy to discuss them with you!
