Global gateway technology

Connect an MPGS merchant account to business software

Connect Mastercard Payment Gateway Services (MPGS) Direct or Hosted Checkout to WooCommerce, HighLevel, Ecwid, GiveWP, and supported platforms.

The connection

Mastercard Payment Gateway Services and Genius Checkout

Banks and payment providers supply Mastercard Payment Gateway Services merchant access under their own commercial agreements. Genius Checkout connects those MPGS credentials to supported stores, CRMs, donation forms, and payment workflows.

Merchants can configure Direct or Hosted Checkout according to the credentials and features their bank enabled. The two modes use different buyer flows, so the setup must match the merchant onboarding details.

MPGS appears as a separate Test Store gateway beside Powertranz, Lynk, and Wompi. The merchant configuration and currency determine which routes buyers can use.

Available workflow

What the connection supports

  • One-time payments through a Genius Checkout hosted checkout
  • Transaction records and payment status in one merchant dashboard
  • Refund, void, and capture actions when the gateway and payment state allow them
  • Webhooks and integration callbacks for supported software platforms
  • Saved-card and recurring flows when tokenization is provisioned
  • Hosted Checkout branding through the MPGS merchant configuration

Implementation path

Connect without guessing at the gateway

Use the provider details issued for the merchant account. Test and live credentials must stay in their matching environments.

  1. 01

    Connect your merchant account

    Add the credentials supplied by your bank, gateway, or wallet provider to Genius Checkout. Test and live credentials stay separate.

  2. 02

    Connect the software

    Install or authorize the Genius Checkout integration for the platform. The connection keeps gateway credentials outside the store or CRM.

  3. 03

    Run a controlled test

    Use the approved test mode, verify the return flow and order status, then repeat the checklist in live mode with a permitted low-value transaction.

Before you start

What you need

Keep credentials out of email and screenshots. Enter them only inside the secure merchant configuration.

  • An active MPGS merchant ID
  • API authentication or Hosted Checkout credentials for the selected mode
  • The gateway base URL supplied by your bank or acquirer
  • Currencies and transaction operations enabled on the account

Merchant questions

Answers before you connect

Who supplies MPGS credentials?

The bank or payment provider that approved the merchant account supplies the merchant ID and gateway details. Some API credentials must be created inside the merchant portal.

Should I select Direct or Hosted Checkout?

Use the mode your bank provisioned and that matches the checkout experience and compliance requirements for the project. The credential sets are not interchangeable.

Can MPGS run recurring payments?

Recurring payments depend on tokenization and merchant-account permissions. Confirm those capabilities with your bank before launching a subscription product.
