Introduction

Feature description

1. What is Straal?

Straal is a payment provider that allows accepting online gateway payments (card payments, bank transfers and blik) and Recurring Credit Card payments. With Straal you can accept payments made with cards of all major schemes and in more than 150 currencies. You can use credit cards for a variety of payments, i.e.: one-shot payments, one-click payments, subscriptions and fees charged automatically and POS payments made in your club. Here you will find more information on the online payment gateways. They are used in the Client Portal and (in future) will be available in the PerfectGym GO Mobile App. 

  • During the first transaction with a particular card, Straal requires a complete set of card details. Card details include the cardholder name, full card number, CVV/CVC and expiry date. The card then receives an ID, which you can store as a token (for example, for subsequent transactions) instead of keeping the sensitive data in your system. This process is called tokenization. Straal uses tokenization when processing payment data in one-click and recurring transactions.

  • In the PGM, you can generate Credit Card (CC) booking manually or automatically.

Be aware that PG doesn't control payment methods available in Straal checkout (like blik or online bank transfers). If you're missing any payment method, please contact Straal team at: info@straal.com

2. What do you have to provide for the integration to succeed?

  • To start the process of integration, you should register on the Straal web page, provide them with all necessary information and documents mentioned here. 
  • Then, you will be asked to sign the agreement with Straal. 
  • The next step is creating credentials for the test account. You will have to provide the PerfectGym Implementation Team with the Account, Username, and Password to do the test account set up for you. This will allow to set up the integration, check if it works well, and to limit the possibility of error occurrence. If you are doing the integration by yourself you can skip the step with providing credentials to our team and proceed with set up.
  • The last step is the go-live phase on the production environment.
