Many businesses accept payments in more than one place. In-person and online payments share the same goal, but they work a little differently.
In-person payments
In-person payments happen at a physical location or on the go, typically using a terminal or mobile device. The card or digital wallet is presented to the device at checkout.
Online payments
Online payments happen through a website or digital platform. The customer enters payment details in a checkout page, and the payment is processed through an online gateway.
Things to consider
- Where your customers prefer to pay.
- The equipment or integration each channel needs.
- How sales from different channels are reported together.
- Security and data-handling requirements for each channel.
