Description

Flute is a flexible payment processing platform built for growing businesses, software companies, associations, and payment partners that need multiple ways to accept and manage money. Businesses can accept payments in person, online, over the phone, through mobile devices, or through embedded payment experiences within their own software. Supported capabilities include card processing, tap-to-pay, QR payments, ACH, virtual terminals, hosted payment pages, invoicing, recurring billing, and digital wallet payments. Flute offers portable and mounted payment terminals while also allowing businesses to use compatible existing devices and mobile phones. Its management tools provide centralized dashboards, reporting, merchant onboarding, customer management, and workflow automation across payment operations. Recurring billing and secure tokenized payment storage support subscription businesses and companies that process repeat purchases. Instant payout capabilities give eligible merchants faster access to funds from daily card sales, while additional working capital tools can support business growth. Security features include encrypted payment data, fraud prevention, network tokenization, and protection against risks such as card testing and chargeback abuse. Flute also offers APIs, SDKs, developer documentation, and embedded payment infrastructure for SaaS platforms, ISOs, associations, and other partners that want to integrate payments into their products or portfolios.

Description

This solution accommodates various payment methods, including EMV credit and debit cards, gift cards, contactless transactions, as well as modern options such as Text to Pay and QR Code payments.

Additionally, PAR features PAR Gift, which supports both physical and digital gift cards that are reloadable, brand-customizable, and compatible with mobile wallets, along with built-in loyalty mechanisms for points earning and redemption. On the security side, PAR prioritizes compliance with industry standards, employs robust encryption, and keeps devices updated to mitigate fraud risks effectively.
