CartModules: ForteBank Payment Gateway

Accept online payments from customers in Kazakhstan and beyond using ForteBank's secure payment gateway. This addon integrates ForteBank's REST API directly into your CS-Cart store, providing a seamless redirect-based payment experience with robust security and reliable server-to-server callback notifications.

Key Features

HMAC-SHA256 Authentication

Every API request and callback is signed using HMAC-SHA256, ensuring tamper-proof communication between your store and ForteBank.

Redirect Payment Flow

Customers are securely redirected to ForteBank's hosted payment page. No card data touches your server (PCI SAQ A compliant).

Server-to-Server Callbacks

Reliable server-to-server notifications ensure order statuses are updated even if the customer closes their browser.

Sandbox & Live Modes

Test your integration thoroughly in sandbox mode before going live. Switch between modes with a single dropdown.

Multi-Currency Support

Primary support for KZT (Kazakhstani Tenge), with additional support for USD, EUR, and RUB.

Status Mapping

Map ForteBank payment outcomes (success, failed, pending) to your preferred CS-Cart order statuses.

Comprehensive Logging

Detailed logging of all API interactions with automatic sensitive data redaction (secret keys, signatures).

Idempotent Processing

Callbacks are processed safely -- duplicate notifications never result in duplicate order updates.

Security First: SSL verification is enforced on all HTTP calls. No card data is handled by your server. All API credentials are masked in logs. Callback signatures are verified using timing-safe comparison to prevent forgery.

How It Works

  1. Customer selects ForteBank at checkout and places the order.
  2. Your store creates a signed payment session via ForteBank's API.
  3. Customer is redirected to ForteBank's secure payment page.
  4. Customer completes payment using their preferred method.
  5. ForteBank redirects the customer back to your store and sends a server callback.
  6. The addon verifies the signature, confirms payment status, and updates the order.

Installation

  1. Go to Add-ons > Manage add-ons, click Manual installation, and upload the addon zip
  2. Activate the addon and enter the license key
  3. Navigate to Administration > Payment methods and create a new payment method.
  4. Select ForteBank Payment Gateway as the processor.
  5. Enter your Merchant ID and Secret Key from the ForteBank portal.
  6. Configure the currency and order status mapping, then save.
