Process card payments in Canada
Learn how to process card payments in Canada via the API
Applies to:Developers
Merchants can process card-not-present card transactions in Canadian dollars (CAD) through Payabli.
Considerations
Keep the following considerations in mind when implementing Canadian processing:
- US and Canadian currencies can’t be commingled in a single Payabli organization. Partners that require both US and Canadian processing will have separate Payabli organizations for each currency. The Payabli team sets up any additional organization you need for you before you begin boarding Canadian merchants.
- Canadian processing is available for credit card transactions only. ACH processing isn’t available.
- Canadian processing doesn’t support card-present transactions. All credit card transactions must be processed as Card Not Present
- Card processing isn’t available for merchants conducting business in Quebec, or anyone who requires French-language terms and conditions.
Processing card payments
To process a card payment in CAD via the API, use the same API endpoints as for US processing. The only difference is that you must specify the CAD
currency in your requests.
