A Deep Dive into Core Functionality

Let’s explore the three most impactful features that make this add-on a must-have for any serious Active eCommerce store owner. These functions directly address security, user experience, and operational efficiency.

Secure Hosted Checkout: Boost Customer Trust

Security is the number one concern for online shoppers. The Secure Acceptance Hosted Checkout feature is your best tool for building immediate trust. When a customer is ready to pay, they are redirected to a secure payment page hosted directly by Cybersource.

This method has two major benefits. First, it offloads the most sensitive part of the transaction to a globally trusted payment processor (a Visa company). Second, it greatly reduces your PCI DSS compliance burden, as sensitive card data never touches your server.

By displaying the trusted Cybersource and Visa branding during checkout, you reassure customers that their information is safe. This simple step can dramatically reduce cart abandonment and increase your overall sales.

Direct API Integration: A Seamless On-Site Experience

For businesses that want to maintain complete control over their branding and user experience, the Direct API integration is the perfect solution. This method allows you to embed the payment form directly into your website’s checkout page. The customer never has to leave your site to complete their purchase.

This creates a frictionless and professional checkout flow. A seamless experience keeps the customer engaged and focused on completing their order, which is proven to lift conversion rates. Your store appears more established and professional.

While this method requires you to ensure your server environment is secure (SAQ A-EP compliance), the payoff in user experience and brand consistency is immense. The Active eCommerce Cybersource Add-on makes implementing this powerful feature straightforward.

Effortless Transaction Management

Managing an e-commerce business involves more than just accepting payments; it’s also about handling post-sale operations like refunds. This add-on simplifies your workflow by integrating transaction management directly into your Active eCommerce admin panel.

There’s no need to log into a separate Cybersource merchant portal to handle everyday tasks. You can view transaction details, issue full or partial refunds, and void authorizations with just a few clicks from the order screen you already use. This centralization saves valuable time and reduces the chance of administrative errors.

Efficiently managing refunds and customer service requests leads to happier customers and a better brand reputation. This integrated functionality is a critical tool for operational excellence.

Who Is This Payment Gateway Add-on For?

This add-on is a versatile solution built for a wide range of users within the Active eCommerce ecosystem. Its combination of powerful features and ease of use makes it an ideal choice for many business types.
