This section covers the day-to-day use cases of payments operations which Hyperswitch dashboard can support
Typical payment conversion funnel of a user through Hyperswitch involves five stages as shown below.
Lets take a scenario where you website had initiated 100,000 payments with Hyperswitch.
Total successful payments processed out of total payments created.
This includes user dropouts at shopping cart and checkout page.
Total successful payments processed out of all user confirmed payments.
This includes user dropouts at 3DS verification page, bank transfer login page, pages powered by digital wallets (Paypal, Googlepay, Applepay etc.,).
Payment success rate does not include payments which are authorized by but not captured, because non-captured payments will be be settled to your merchant account by your payment processor.
Sum of amount of all payments with status = succeeded.
Please note that there could be payments which could be authorized but not captured. Such payments are not included in the processed amount, because non-captured payments will be be settled to your merchant account by your payment processor.
The total amount for which payments were created divided by the total number of payments created.
Successful payments
Total number of payments with status as succeeded.
There are two aspects which you need to be aware of:
Once you start using the Hyperswitch, the role of the payment processor is involved only in the last leg of the payment processing (i.e) after the user enters payment information
Most payment processors report only the authorization rate excluding user dropouts on the checkout page and failed 3DS verifications.
Hyperswitch measures conversion rate including user dropouts, so that you get full visibility on your user dropouts and take appropriate measures to reduce user dropouts.
Please refer here for detailed understanding how popular payment processors track payment lifecycle and measure conversion rates.
The analytics section on the Hyperswitch dashboard offers you the tools to derive insights on patterns of payment failures. Here are some frequently faced problems and actionables.
"Payment Operations" refers to the operational time and effort spent by businesses beyond the payment processing step to manage the entire lifecycle of payments. It is cross-functional responsibility and shared across various teams of your business which is responsible for Customer Experience, Finance and Business Growth.
And, as you begin to process payments through multiple payment processors, the complexity increases multifold, thereby increasing fixed costs and siphoning out mind share from focussing on the core business.
