Business Centre is a comprehensive tool that enables organisations to showcase their products and services. It allows them to receive order requests and in-app payments through a payment gateway. The two payment gateway supported by forBinary are PayU and Razorpay. You can choose either of the two. If you want to receive payments, you have to and build the app again. This feature contains two sections:
Payment Links:
You can create Payment Links to receive payments from app users for the services/membership offered by you. You can also create customised payment links and set their visibility to specific customer(s).
Product Categories:
You can use this option to list products under relevant categories in your App. This is your online store. Add as many products as you like and segment them for convenient discovery.
Through this feature, you can get two types on inputs from the app users
Payments: App user can select the link or products, and then make an in app payment. For this to work, you will need to have an account at either PayU or Razorpay (we can help you with the same) and you need to enter the account credentials in the payment setting section under your profile (top right side)
Requests: The app users can also send you a request without making any payment. You don't need any payment settings for this to function
This is used by organisations to:
List their products and arrange them in specific categories.
B2B orders
One time payments like membership fees, renewal fees etc

Donation
Analyse the details of the orders and payments received
