Following CSG's acquisition of iCG, you will need to transition from the iCG iFrame solution to one of CSG Forte's payment integration options. To support this migration, we’ve outlined two flexible alternatives to help you choose the solution that best fits your needs.
These options are designed to seamlessly replace the existing iFrame integration, with detailed overviews and links to developer documentation provided below.
Option 1: CSG Forte Checkout V2
CSG Forte Checkout v2 is designed for quick and easy integration, making it ideal for merchants who want a standardized solution with minimal front-end development effort.
