Description

The First Data Payeezy Gateway adds the First Data Payeezy processor as a payment option in the Event Espresso registration checkout, capturing credit card details directly on the event registration page and submitting the transaction to the Payeezy API without redirecting the participant. This on-site flow keeps the registrant on the site throughout the entire confirmation, simplifying payment capture for conferences, workshops, and paid courses.
