Important Update (Apr 15, 2019)

Merchants who are using eWay Payment Gateway and want to associate with ChargeMonk will get affected with update. ChargeMonk is connected to eWay through Spreedly vault. To use eWay payment gateway and ChargeMonk, all the current cards in eWay have to be shifted to Spreedly. Though, because of the change in the internal policy at eWay around card data portability, at present we are facing issues with migration from the eWay vault to Spreedly vault. We are trying to resolve this issue with eWay and will post further updates here.

Integration Options

ChargeMonk provides the below given options to connect with eWay Rapid on its live site:

Option A ChargeMonk's hosted payment pages + eWay Rapid Gateway

When using this feature, the card details of customer are collected by ChargeMonk's secure hosted pages and migrated on to eWay Rapid This process reduces your PCI compliance requirements. If you are a merchant using hosted pages of ChargeMonk, all you need to do is to fill a Self Assessment Questionnaire (SAQ-A) and when required submit it to the payment gateway.

PCI Compliance Requirements: Low

Option B API + eWay Rapid Gateway

When using this feature, the card details collection is managed by you and is migrated to ChargeMonk later. When captured, ChargeMonk would pass the card details to eWay Rapid. This process sets your PCI compliance requirements at a higher end; you also have to confirm that your servers are enough secure to get such type of sensitive information.

PCI Compliance Requirements: High
