## beGateway – January updates

 

### Meet 7 New beGateway Connector

1\. For card payments: 

- **BearlaPay (KalonPay)** in Europe
- **Hydracode** in Europe and Central Asia

2\. For APM:

- **Transactworld** (for accepting Google Pay and Apple Pay)
- **Zimpler** (Bank transfer)
- **Mercuryo** (Blik)
- **Siquro** (Sofort, Boodil, Isx)
- **Yaspa** (Bank Transfer)

### IP Restrictions for Merchant Backoffice

 Your merchants can now restrict IP addresses, from which the merchant back office account will be accessible to their team. This way, the merchants can additionally secure sensitive business information. This feature can also restrict access to the system from outside the company office.

### Auto Payments with APMs

 Auto payments are now available not only for card payments but also for alternative payment methods.

 

 

**How it works**: Merchants can activate auto payments in shop settings and include required customer parameters in the payment token request. This allows payments to be processed automatically without customer confirmation on the widget or payment page. When a customer selects the payment method, the transaction is triggered automatically, and the result page appears as soon as the transaction is completed.  
**Benefit**: A smoother payment flow can improve conversion rates by reducing the number of steps customers must take.
