Payment processing

Our software. Your provider account. Clear lines between them.

Allidian is a payments software platform. Licensed third-party payment providers handle underwriting, processing and settlement under an account in your own name.

The flow of a payment

Where money goes, and where it doesn't.

When a customer pays, the payment goes to your provider account. It never passes through us.

  1. Customer pays

    On a Allidian checkout, link or invoice page. Card details go into provider-hosted fields.

  2. Provider processes

    Your payment provider authorises and processes the payment under your merchant account.

  3. We record the result

    The provider tells us the outcome, and we update your dashboard and send webhooks.

  4. Provider settles

    Funds are paid out from the provider to your bank, on the provider's schedule.

Who does what

Three parties, each with a clear role.

You, the merchant

  • Sell to your customers and set your prices
  • Hold your own account with the payment provider
  • Receive payouts directly to your bank account
  • Remain merchant of record for your sales

Allidian

  • Provide checkout, links, invoicing and subscriptions software
  • Guide you through the provider's hosted onboarding
  • Show payments, refunds and disputes as the provider reports them
  • Never hold, move or settle your funds

The payment provider

  • Verify your business and decide on approval
  • Process card and other payments
  • Settle funds to your bank account
  • Set processing fees and manage disputes with card networks

Approval is the provider's decision.

Payment providers are required to know who they're working with. Before you can accept live payments, the provider reviews your business through its own onboarding and decides whether to approve your account.

We help you prepare: your business profile tells us what you sell and how you operate, and we use it to guide you to the right provider and pre-fill what we can. But we don't approve merchants, and no plan guarantees approval. Some business types are restricted or not supported, see our acceptable use policy.
