Barion Bridge
The best payment option for platforms
Barion Bridge allows platforms (marketplaces, SaaS webshop providers, etc.) to facilitate payments and manage payouts globally. We also take the responsibility of payment compliance off your shoulders.
Facilitate any payment
Barion Bridge is ready to support virtually any payment method: facilitated, platform, and split payments, reservations, subscriptions – we take care of it all.
Facilitated payments
Platform payments
Split payments
Reservations
Facilitated payments
Customers make payments to the seller without realizing that there is a third-party platform involved.
Example: A customer pays using a webshop provider's payment solution that is partnered with Barion.
Platform payments
Customers make the payment on the platform, and the platform transfers the amount to the partner after collecting their fees.
Example: Paying bills on Etsy or getting insurance from Netrisk.
Split payments
Customers make payments on the platform, and the merchant distributes the amount between different partners.
Example: The customer check out on the platform, and the amount gets distributed between multiple merchants.
Reservations
A platform can lock the money on the seller's account as a deposit and later release it.
Example: When a customer pays a deposit for their apartment in advance.
Instant payouts
Fees for third-parties
Top-ups
Subscriptions
Instant payouts
The platform sends funds, unlinked to incoming payments, to their seller bank account. In countries where it's supported (e.g., Hungary or Czechia), payouts can happen instantly.
Example: Foodpanda or Wolt settling the bill with its contracted third-party providers.
Fees for third-parties
Apart from collecting the platform's fees, the facilitator can also deduct a third-party agent(s) fee.
Example: Local marketers who are distributing fees between facilitators and also paying agents.
Top-ups
A platform funds its Barion balance from a bank account to send transfers not tied to a charge made via Barion.
Example: A platform tops up its Barion balance to discount its service to buyers while still paying its sellers or service providers in full.
Subscriptions
A platform allows partners to gather customer payment info first, tokenize it, and then charge recurring fees without any interaction with the customers.
Example: a customer provides their credit card details to get a monthly Spotify's subscription.
