Payment Gateway Integration
Zoho Inventory is integrated with major online payment gateways to help you receive payments for your invoices online. This ensures faster and hassle-free receipt of payments and further automates your cash flow.
To integrate with payment gateways, you need the following requirements:
- An active account with the payment gateways that you wish to integrate with (unless the gateway allows you to create a new account during the integration process like Stripe for example).
- An active account in Zoho inventory.

Benefits of integrating with a payment gateway
- On integrating with a payment gateway, when you send an invoice to your customer, the customer will also receive a payment link using which, they will be able to make instant payments.
- This integration automates your payment collection process by providing secure and fast payment gateways to collect the payments made by your customers.
- When a payment has been successfully made by your customer, the status of your invoice gets updated accordingly and a payment receipt is generated. If you had set up an automation for sending thank you notes on payment, then your customer also gets wind of your gratitude as soon as they make payments.
- This integration saves you the trouble of manual payment entries, possible human data entry errors, need of collecting payments through less secure means and long chains of follow ups within your organization.
Insight: Zoho Inventory does not store any of the payer’s card information. When your payer clicks the online payment link and submits the form, we encrypt the data and send it to the respective payment gateway securely. After the payment is processed, Zoho Inventory receives a confirmation message along with the card reference number, expiry date and month. These details are updated in the payments received section of the invoice in Zoho Inventory.
