Frequently Asked Questions
Which payment gateways do you typically integrate with e-commerce platforms?
We integrate with all major global payment gateways including Stripe, PayPal, Adyen, Braintree, Klarna, and Amazon Pay, as well as regional payment providers specific to your target markets. Our approach ensures we select the optimal combination of payment processors based on your specific business needs, transaction volumes, and geographical requirements while minimizing processing fees.
How long does a typical payment and shipping integration project take?
Most standard payment and shipping integrations can be completed within 2-4 weeks, depending on the complexity of your requirements and the number of carriers or payment methods being implemented. Projects requiring custom API development or complex business logic may take 4-8 weeks. We provide detailed timelines during our initial project scoping phase to ensure transparency throughout the implementation process.
How do you ensure payment security and compliance with regulations?
We implement industry-standard security practices including tokenization, encryption, and PCI DSS compliance measures for all payment integrations. Our development team follows current security protocols for each payment gateway while ensuring compliance with regional regulations like GDPR, SCA requirements under PSD2 in Europe, and other market-specific standards to protect both your business and your customers.
Can you integrate real-time shipping rates from multiple carriers?
Yes, we specialize in implementing multi-carrier shipping solutions that calculate real-time rates based on package dimensions, weight, destination, and service level. Our integrations connect directly with carrier APIs or through shipping aggregators like ShipperHQ or ShipStation to display accurate shipping options and costs to customers during checkout while automatically generating shipping labels and tracking information.
How do you handle tax compliance for international sales?
We integrate specialized tax calculation services like Avalara, Vertex, or TaxJar that automatically determine appropriate tax rates based on customer location, product type, and applicable exemptions.

How Our Integration Approach Compares to Alternatives
Unlike pre-packaged integration solutions that offer limited customization, Goodahead provides tailored implementations that address your specific business requirements and customer expectations.
