Collect payments with debit cards and credit cards through Mastercard Payment Gateway Service (formerly MIGS).
Event Smart can help with registrations for events like conferences, classes, reunions, seminars, fundraisers, and more. You can accept debit card payments and credit card payments for your event registrations by using Event Smart and Mastercard Payment Gateway Service.
Why Mastercard Payment Gateway Service?
Mastercard Payment Gateway Service, previously known as Mastercard Internet Payment Service or MIGS is available to event organizers in many countries around the world. Make an event registration website with Mastercard Payment Gateway Service through Event Smart and get online event registrations and payments through debit cards and credit cards. You’ll get online payments to your merchant account with your local bank as your attendees pay for their event registrations with credit cards and debit cards.
Our event organizers choose the Mastercard Payment Gateway Service because it is offered by local banks in different countries across the world. This means that you can have a business bank account and payment processing services through the same local bank.
The Mastercard Payment Gateway Service is a white label payment processing service for local banks. Creating an account with the Mastercard Payment Gateway Service works differently than a payment service like PayPal, Braintree, or Stripe. Instead of signing up online on a website, you’ll sign up in person with a local bank in your country that offers merchant services through Mastercard.

Frequently asked questions about the Mastercard Payment Gateway Service payment gateway
Do you charge any commission or service fees for each event or each registration?
We do not add any commission fees for your events or your attendee registrations which means that you keep more funds from each registration. Connect your business or premier account from Mastercard Payment Gateway Service to Event Smart and receive payments directly to your Mastercard Payment Gateway Service merchant account as your attendees register and pay for their event registrations.
How can I set up a recurring payment, payment plan, or a subscription through Mastercard Payment Gateway Service?
Recurring payments, payment plans, or subscriptions are not currently supported in the Mastercard Payment Gateway Service feature upgrade. When an attendee pays for their event registration with Mastercard Payment Gateway Service, they pay up front so, you receive your funds right away.
