What PayU Global Payments is

PayU Global Payments provides payment processing and orchestration for merchants selling across markets. The platform combines a payment gateway and processing, with acquiring bank services in some markets. Merchants can connect to hundreds of local and global payment methods, including cards, digital wallets, online bank transfers, QR payments, deferred payments, local schemes and other alternatives. It supports local settlement and multi-currency handling, with more than 20 transaction and payout currencies. PayU’s Smart Routing Engine uses merchant-defined criteria to route transactions with the aim of optimizing approvals and fees. Instant Retry can route declined transactions through another provider to help recover false declines. A shared dashboard lets merchants track approval rates and other metrics, compare payment methods and providers, manage accounts and generate reports. Tokenization encrypts payment data and can reduce a merchant’s PCI scope. PayU describes itself as PCI Level 1-certified and says it supports 3D Secure 2.0. Merchants can set up payments through one API, and Apple Pay can be integrated through PayU’s Payment Page or a merchant’s own checkout page. Pricing is available by contacting PayU.
