How does Core Checkout work?

What is Core Checkout?

Core Checkout is a card payment solution integrated on your website via our API. When your customer clicks "Pay", they are redirected to a payment page hosted by Core, then sent back to your website after confirmation.

Integration requires a developer. Our technical documentation covers the full process.


How does a payment work?

  1. Your customer clicks "Pay" on your website
  2. They are redirected to the Core-hosted payment page
  3. They enter their card details and confirm the payment
  4. They are automatically redirected back to your website
  5. You receive a real-time confirmation in your dashboard

Payouts

  • Funds are paid out D+3 after the transaction date
  • The bank transfer takes an additional 1 to 2 business days
  • You receive the funds in your account between D+4 and D+5
  • Fees (2% + €0.20 per transaction) are automatically deducted from the payout — no separate invoice


💡 Good to know — You can issue a refund from your dashboard before D+3, as long as the bank transfer has not yet been initiated. See article: Issuing a refund.
