Working with Mastercard Payment Gateway Service and the Booking Widget
Want to use our Booking Widget to accept bookings and payments from your website? It is important to understand that the Mastercard Payment Gateway Service payment modal cannot open within other modals, such as our Booking Widget. This means that once your Customer completes the Create Booking step within the booking process, they are taken out of the Booking Widget to your Checkfront Hosted Payment Page to complete the payment.
Instead of using the Booking Widget, you can link directly to your website to the Hosted Customer Booking Page. This way, the Customer is not redirected to a new window to provide payment.
