h3. Why the transaction is in Pending Settlement state and never change to Settle?
30 11 chin-yeh

All of the approved transactions will “always” say Pending Settlement. It’s a difference between US & EU processing banks. In the US, all transactions are “settled” at the end of the day. In the EU though, transactions aren’t really “settled” via a batch. The gateway was originally designed for US merchants, but has expanded into the EU.

h3. How the settlement works?
34
35
# The e-commerce transaction is submitted to a gateway such as Metrics Global.
36
# The gateway (i.e. Metrics Global) will securely route all transactions to a payment processor (Cash Flows).
37
# The payment processor continues to route the transaction to the credit card issuing bank (purchaser's bank) to request the funds.
38
# The issuing bank approves transfer of money to the acquiring bank/payment processor which in turn credits the merchant's bank account (automatically, 7 days arrears).
