New Feature - Internal Payment Gateway
It would be great if there was an internal payment gateway system built into Xero which would allow us to store customer credit card information against their card file data masked so that it couldn't be re-read after being entered, and then trigger a payment against that card either from an invoice against that card or through the API. We do not want to have to store credit card details on our system nor are we keen to use an external credit card gateway which would still need us to store those details in the database somewhere. Storing the details within Xero itself and being able to trigger the payment by creating an invoice and pressing a button named process payment would be fantastic if it was all within Xero itself as it would save all the manual double handling.
As this forum is for developer API functionality requests and yours relates to something that would need to happen in the main application, I’m afraid we have to decline this suggestion, but don’t take it personally – we would still love to see you make your suggestion in the Xero Community forum: https://community.xero.com/business/
