All payments Fee Plaza collects for its Merchants are through CCAvenue payment gateway, since Q3 2016. Fee Plaza is not a payment gateway.

Fee Plaza's system provide ready to use User Interfaces for Merchants to specify their payment types (e.g., quarterly fee, half yearly fee, etc.). CCAvenue credits such payments to Fee Plaza's Escrow account on the next business day. Fee Plaza normally credits such payments to Merchants' accounts (registered with IDFC FIRST Bank, at the time of Merchant's sign up with Fee Plaza and KYC), on the day it receives the amount from CCAvenue.

Fee Plaza has yet to launch MeetOptimal.com in India. MeetOptimal is SaaS. A Merchant has to sign up with a payment gateway of their choice and configure on MeetOptimal themselves. So, any payment made by their customers will be remitted to the Merchant's bank account directly by that payment gateway.


Fee Plaza system neither stores card data nor can view, except knowing whether it is a credit card or a debit card that the payer has used.
