Payment Facilitators, also known as PayFacs, are service providers that enable businesses to accept electronic payments from customers. They act as intermediaries between businesses (referred to as sub-merchants) and payment processors, simplifying the process of accepting payments. PayFacs streamline the onboarding process for sub-merchants, reducing the time and effort required to start accepting payments. They typically provide a consolidated platform or service that handles various aspects of payment acceptance, including transaction processing, risk management, and settlement.
