Introduction

Mecx-Tech connects supported payment gateways and payment providers to Cloudbeds PMS through apps available in the Cloudbeds Marketplace. The process includes setting up an account with your selected provider, submitting a request for the paid app, agreeing to the pricing, and sharing the required credentials with Mecx-Tech.

Review the requirements below before submitting your request. Your selected gateway must support the same transaction currency configured in your Cloudbeds account.

Before you begin

  • Before connecting to Cloudbeds, follow the instructions to set up an account with the payment gateway provider. If you already have an account, review Mecx-Tech Payment Gateways Overview and follow the support article for your selected provider to obtain the information listed in the Integration requirements section. Mecx-Tech will need this information to complete the setup.
  • If you decide to use Mecx Pay with a specific provider from the Mecx-Tech Payment Providers portfolio, ensure you have an existing account with your chosen bank or payment provider. Mecx-Tech will not handle your registration.
  • Some providers require testing with a test API key before setting the integration live. This may delay the process for up to 30 days.
  • Ensure that the payment gateway can transmit transactions in the same currency as your Cloudbeds account, as Cloudbeds will not handle currency conversions.
