BlueSnap is an all-in-one payment platform. Chargebee is equipped to accept payment made via BlueSnap.
Review the following criteria before choosing BlueSnap as your payment solution:
Chargebee uses Spreedly, a third party card vault, to store the customer's card information. If you are using BlueSnap's services already, you will have to migrate your customer's card information to Spreedly to start using Chargebee with BlueSnap. Contact [email protected] for more information about the migration process.
Due to recent world events, you may experience failures for payments originating from Russian financial institutions or instruments. We recommend reviewing guidelines issued by respective payment gateways for additional information.
