Multiple Payment Gateways: Give Every Region Its Preferred Way to Pay

Run several payment gateways at once, so each market checks out through the method it trusts and one outage never stops every payment.

Why a Single Gateway Is a Single Point of Failure

Vodlix supports multiple payment gateways running at the same time, because relying on a single provider is a single point of failure. When one gateway has an outage, every payment on your platform stops with it, including renewals and new signups. With several gateways active, checkout keeps working when one provider has a bad day. For a subscription business, gateway redundancy protects the recurring revenue that everything else depends on.

One provider down is not checkout down.

Match the Payment Gateway to Each Market

Different regions trust different payment providers, and viewers complete purchases far more often when checkout matches what they are used to. Vodlix lets you offer the right gateway per market, so a subscriber in one country pays through a local provider while another uses an international card processor. Regional payment preferences are configured from the same admin area. Matching the market at checkout is one of the simplest ways to raise conversion internationally.


Compare Gateway Performance and Route Volume

Vodlix lets you see how each payment gateway performs and route volume accordingly. If a provider settles reliably in one region and poorly in another, you can direct transactions toward the gateways that work best for each market. Performance data sits alongside the payment configuration, so routing decisions are based on results rather than assumptions. Active routing keeps failed payments low and settlements predictable.


Add or Remove Gateways Without Disruption

Adding or removing a payment gateway in Vodlix does not disrupt the others. Turn a new provider on for a market you are entering, or switch one off when it is no longer competitive, and existing subscribers and transactions continue unaffected. Your payment mix evolves as your markets do, without migration projects or downtime. This flexibility means the gateway setup you launch with never has to be the one you are stuck with.


Frequently Asked Questions

Have questions about taking advantage of this limited-time offer? Check out the FAQ for answers.

Can I run more than one payment gateway on Vodlix?
Yes. Vodlix lets you run multiple payment gateways in parallel across your platform, so different markets and payment types can be served by different providers at the same time.
Why use several payment gateways for a streaming service?
Running several gateways on Vodlix lets each market pay through the provider it trusts, which raises conversion, and keeps checkout working when one provider has an outage.
Can I see how each payment gateway performs?
Yes. Vodlix shows performance per gateway, including failed and successful transactions, so you can route volume toward the providers that settle reliably in each region.
Does adding a payment gateway disrupt the others?
No. Payment gateways on Vodlix can be added, enabled or removed independently, so your payment mix can evolve as your markets change without migration projects or downtime.
How do multiple gateways improve conversion?
Viewers complete purchases far more often when checkout matches what they are used to. Offering a familiar, trusted payment method per region through Vodlix directly reduces abandoned checkouts.
Is running several gateways more work to maintain?
Somewhat, since each is a credential and a relationship. The comparison worth making is against the revenue from a market you otherwise cannot serve, which is usually a considerably larger number than the maintenance.
Can I test them before taking real money?
Yes, test mode puts payments through your gateways without charging anybody. It is worth using properly, because a misconfigured gateway looks identical to a working one until money is supposed to move.
How do I know which providers to enable?
Ask how people in that market already pay for things rather than which providers support the currency. Those are different questions, and the second one is the one that produces a checkout nobody completes.
