Frequently Asked Questions
Intelligently route payments through our highest-converting gateways in real-time, reducing failed payments and increasing your revenue.
Gateway Pools let you configure multiple payment gateways for a single checkout flow. This means if one gateway fails or declines a transaction, Funnelish automatically retries with another - boosting your card authorization rates and reducing checkout disruptions.
You assign a prioritized list of gateways—say, Gateway A first, Gateway B as backup. When a customer submits a payment, Funnelish attempts the transaction with the primary gateway. If it fails (due to downtime, declines, etc.), it seamlessly shifts to the next available gateway until the payment is authorized or no gateways remain. This automatic fallback ensures more transactions succeed.
Yes — there’s a small additive fee of 0.3% per transaction when using Gateway Pools, on top of your regular gateway processing fees. This fee covers the added intelligence, reliability, and revenue protection that Gateway Pools delivers.
For now, Gateway Pools works exclusively with card payments (credit, debit, prepaid). That said, you can still offer and process other payment options - like PayPal, Klarna, or bank transfers - alongside a Gateway Pools-enabled flow. Funnelish continues to support those alongside the smart fallback system.
Absolutely! Gateway Pools is fully compatible with all Funnelish environments - funnels, stores, geo-funnels, or any combination thereof. Whether you're running localized pushes with Geo-Funnels or a global storefront, Gateway Pools integrates seamlessly to maximize payment reliability across the board.
Higher authorization rates: Different gateways excel in different regions or card types. Gateway Pools lets you tap into the best performance dynamically.
Built-in redundancy: No single point of failure—if one gateway falters, the next in line saves the sale.
Geographic flexibility: Combine with Geo-Funnels to route through gateways tailored to each region (e.g., local processors with higher success rates).
Improved customer experience: Fewer declines mean fewer frustrated customers and abandoned carts.
