# Introducing our Embedded Form

The **FrontStream Embedded Payment Form** provides a secure and flexible solution for integrating payments on customer websites via an iframe. This form supports multiple payment methods, including credit cards, debit cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and ACH, while ensuring PCI DSS compliance.

### Key Features:

* **Frontend**: The payment form is embedded as an iframe, customizable for branding, mobile-responsive, and secure. It includes fields for payment information, which is tokenized and encrypted before transmission.
* **Payment Gateway Integration**: The form communicates with the PCI DSS-compliant **ArgoFire** gateway, handling authorization, tokenization, and settlement of payments.
* **Tokenization & Encryption**: Payment details are encrypted and tokenized, ensuring sensitive information is never exposed to the customer’s servers.
* **Security & Compliance**: The iframe and payment processing are hosted in a secure, PCI-certified environment, outsourcing PCI DSS compliance to FrontStream.
* **Customization & Management**: A self-service portal allows customers to generate and customize the iframe code, select payment methods, and manage preferences.

### User Flow:

1. **Initiation**: User accesses the embedded form.
2. **Data Entry**: User enters payment details, which are securely processed within the iframe.
3. **Transaction Processing**: The payment is authorized by the payment gateway.
4. **Confirmation**: Transaction details are provided to the customer.
5. **Receipts**: A receipt is emailed to the purchaser or donor.

### Benefits:

* **PCI Scope Reduction**: Customers are not required to handle sensitive payment data, reducing PCI DSS certification requirements.
* **Security**: Ensures secure payment processing with encryption and tokenization.
* **Ease of Integration**: Simple integration with minimal development effort.
* **Multi-Payment Support**: Supports a variety of payment options.
* **Multi-Purchase Items & Surcharging**: Allows multiple items in a single transaction and customizable surcharge options.

This solution ensures a seamless, secure, and PCI-compliant payment experience for customers.
