Overview

Taking a payment is the easy part. Getting reconciliation, refunds, failed-payment handling and recurring mandates right is where integrations usually fall short — and where the finance team ends up doing manual work every month. We build the whole flow, not just the checkout button.

The problem

Payments come in but reconciliation is manual and refunds are messy

Customers pay by UPI to a QR code or transfer to a bank account, and someone matches the credits to invoices by hand. Failed payments are not retried, refunds are processed by exception, and settlement reports never quite agree with the order list.

You will recognise this if

  • Payment references are matched to invoices manually every day
  • Customers pay but the order is not marked paid until someone checks
  • Failed payments are simply lost rather than retried
  • Gateway settlement figures do not reconcile with your own records

What you get out of it

The difference this makes

Payments confirmed automatically

Server-verified webhooks mark orders paid the moment money is confirmed, so nobody has to check a bank statement to release an order.

Reconciliation that balances

Settlement reports are matched against transactions automatically, with discrepancies and gateway fees accounted for.

Recovered failed payments

Automatic retries with an alternative method recover a meaningful share of payments that would otherwise be abandoned.

Secure by construction

Card and UPI credentials never touch your systems; the gateway handles them and you verify signed confirmations server-side.

What we build

  • Integration with Razorpay, PayU, Cashfree, Instamojo or Stripe
  • UPI, cards, net banking, wallets and EMI options as appropriate
  • Payment links sent over WhatsApp, email or SMS for offline sales
  • Signed webhook verification with idempotent handling to prevent double-crediting
  • Subscriptions and recurring payments via UPI AutoPay and e-mandate
  • Refunds and partial refunds with status tracking
  • Automated settlement reconciliation including fee accounting
  • Failed payment retry and recovery flows
  • PCI-conscious design: no card data stored or logged anywhere in your systems

How it gets used

A service business collecting advances

Payment links go out over WhatsApp with the quotation; payment confirmation updates the job status and issues a receipt automatically.

A subscription product

UPI AutoPay mandates handle monthly collection, with dunning sequences for failures and automatic plan suspension on persistent non-payment.

An online store

Checkout supports UPI, cards and COD, with webhook-confirmed payments releasing orders to dispatch without manual verification.

Technology we typically use

You do not need to care about this list — but your next developer will.

  • Razorpay / PayU / Cashfree / Stripe
  • Python with FastAPI
  • PostgreSQL
  • Webhook handling with signature verification
  • Idempotency keys

Timeline: Typically 1-3 weeks per gateway

Questions

Payment Gateway Integration — common questions

Something else on your mind? Ask us directly — it is usually faster than reading.

Which gateway should we use?
For most Indian businesses Razorpay has the broadest feature set and good documentation; Cashfree and PayU are competitive and sometimes cheaper on rates; Stripe is the sensible choice for international cards. Compare the rate card against your average ticket size and volume — on high volume a small rate difference matters more than features.
Is it safe to take payments on our website?
Yes, when card and UPI entry stays on the gateway's PCI-compliant hosted flow. Your site never sees or stores credentials; it receives a signed confirmation which the server verifies before treating the payment as complete.
Can we take recurring payments from Indian customers?
Yes, through UPI AutoPay or e-mandate, both subject to RBI rules including mandate limits and pre-debit notification. Razorpay and Cashfree both support this; we implement the notification requirements as part of the integration.
