Our integration method, Custom Checkout Form, does hide all Gravity Payments branding from your users; however, our reporting tool, Dashboard, does display Gravity Payments branding and that cannot be hidden. 

Our solutions are customized to fit your integration needs, so we don’t have a set timeframe.  With the help of our Integration Specialists, our goal is to make sure your integration process is fast and seamless. To further ensure your success, please review our Integration Process, as well as our Partner Best Practices.

If you need developer credentials or test hardware, we first need to make sure you’ve spoken with one of our Solutions Architects at partnerships@gravitpayments.com to ensure we’re providing you with the correct software/ hardware solution.

If you’ve already been assigned an Integration Specialists, but you haven’t received your developer credentials or test hardware, please reach out to them directly.

When you start your integration process, you will immediately be assigned a dedicated Integration Specialist and given access to them via Slack, email, and phone. Additionally, during your integration, the Integration Specialist will mirror your Development team’s hours of availability- further ensuring that they will be available when you need them.

Partner account approval can happen as quickly as 24 hours, especially if you follow our Best Practices. On average, merchant onboarding (complete with installed software and/or programmed hardware) can take 3-7 business days.

As always, we are happy to discuss our solutions with you, please reach out to our Solutions Architects at partnerships@gravitypayments.com, so we can find what is best for your business.
