MerchantE’s Hosted Payments will guide your customers through the checkout process to ensure their experience is as simple as possible. When your customer is redirected to your payment page, your customer will have the option to checkout as a guest, create a payment account, or he/she can log in to make a payment. This experience has been designed to be mobile responsive to accommodate a wide variety of devices that a user could potentially be using for checkout.
The checkout experience between guest checkout and a payment account holder checkout is slightly different. Customers that use the Checkout as Guest option have a limited view of Hosted Payments. They will have neither the ability to store the card for future use nor set recurring payments. These features are only available for account holders. Additionally, an account holder gains access to the Customer Dashboard, which allows the account holder to manage their payments.
From the login page of the Payment Page, customers can sign in, check out as a guest, or create an account.
