What Is QNB Virtual POS and How Is It Integrated with Paywall?
QNB virtual POS is an infrastructure that allows businesses to securely accept online payments via credit card and debit card. Businesses wanting to integrate directly with QNB have to:
- Review the bank-specific technical documentation
- Complete the contract process
- Manage the integration process with their own resources
This can create additional technical workload, especially for businesses with limited development resources. With Paywall, QNB can be managed alongside other integrated banks and payment providers through a single payment orchestration infrastructure, reducing the need to manage provider-specific integrations separately.
Accepting Online Payments with QNB Virtual POS
In a payment made through QNB, the customer enters their card details, completes 3D Secure verification, and the transaction result is relayed to the business instantly. With Paywall integration, QNB payment transactions can be managed within the business’s existing payment flow, while transaction results can be passed to the business’s systems according to the configured integration structure.
Managing QNB and Other Payment Providers with a Single API
Businesses generally want to work with different banks and payment methods in addition to QNB. Paywall’s single-API structure allows all these providers to be managed through the same integration, reducing technical overhead.
