We provide you with the opportunity to choose which payment gateway you would want to have implemented within your platform. We work with a variety of payment processors and provide the ability to customize which payment gateway your platform would like to use. CrowdFund Connect is not responsible for the transfer of funds, as the platform redirects to the payment gateway that has been chosen for the actual transaction.

CrowdFund Connect never stores user’s financial information. We leave this PCI compliant task to our payment gateway providers. Although we can have a custom module created to work with any payment gateway provider, our technology team evaluates the security levels of the payment gateway before integrating it to ensure that the highest level of security is maintained.

In addition to the above security measures, we ensure that our backups are stored in a secure environment never travelling across unsecured network. This ensures that data is not subject to a man in the middle (MIIM) attack. We use several best practices methods including but not limited to salted passwords and proper database communication methods to block SQL injection.
