PayMongo's initial discovery phase indicated there was a significant need in our merchant base for a save card feature that allows customers to save and vault their cards for future use. Card vaulting allows merchants to keep their customers' card information safe for future purchases, making checkout faster and easier for returning customers.
Upon identifying that need, the team went to the next phases of the design process: ideation and execution.

The PayMongo Checkouts API was created to offer a one-stop payment gateway to replace the repetitive, redundant, and costly approach previously used. This benefits both customers, who will be directed to a consistent and current gateway, and internal teams, who will only need to update one gateway. It also benefits the merchants as they have one payment solution that they can customize and tailor-fit to their needs.
