For SAP customers, SAP Payment Processing provides a secure, centralized, and automated solution for businesses to process and manage payments. It enables businesses to process payments quickly and accurately while meeting compliance requirements. SAP Payment Processing is a scalable solution that can meet the needs of companies of all sizes.

Key Considerations for SAPinsiders

Configure SAP Payment Processing properly to ensure compliant transactions processing. Although the SAP Payment Processing solution can provide significant value and benefits for businesses of all types, it should be configured to meet the business’s specific needs.

This paves the way for adopting a shared services model to reduce costs.
