Create an event registration system with the Mastercard Payment Gateway Service and Event Espresso and securely receive online payments for your event registrations through Mastercard Payment Gateway Service. You’ll receive payments to your merchant account with your local bank as your attendees pay for their event registrations with debit cards and credit cards.
Our event organizers like the Mastercard Payment Gateway Service because it is offered by local banks in different countries across the world. This means that you can have a business bank account and payment processing services through the same bank.
The Mastercard Payment Gateway Service is a white label payment processing service for local banks.
