Payment Provider Protocol - Overview

The Payment Provider Protocol is a set of definitions to help you integrate your payment processing API into VTEX platform, including sub-acquirers, acquirers, gateways and custom payment services.

To achieve this, you need to implement a web API (REST) following the specifications described in this documentation.
