Paragon Processing PlatformThis document is to provide a detailed description of how a developer or software solution provider can integrate with the Paragon Processing Platform (Paragon Platform). The Paragon Platform is for developers who wish to use Paragon's processing services within their software applications. The Paragon Platform can stand alone as a web-based storefront with (or without) attached card readers or may be used in combination with point-of-sale (POS) and order entry applications.The Paragon Platform accepts payments in many forms, including check, credit, debit, gift, loyalty and EBT cards. Payments may be taken online, over the telephone, from a mobile phone and at physical store locations. In addition to handling large volumes of payment transactions, the Paragon Platform manages and settles batches, protects sensitive card information, administers billing contracts and produces operational and analytical reports. Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) With our API, software systems and devices communicate with the Paragon Platform by exchanging messages. Client Application formulates a message and transmits the request to the Paragon Platform. The Paragon Platform translates the request and relays it to the Payment Processing Network. The Payment Processing Network processes the request and returns a response to the Paragon Platform. The Paragon Platform translates the response and relays it to the Client Application.The Path to Integration Step 1: Open a Test Account Visit https://developer.paragonsolutions.com/testaccount to register for a free test account.
