Load Balancing Router

Overview​

The load balancing router, allows you to send transactions to two or more enabled payment gateways. For example, you can send some of your transactions to gateway A, and the rest of your transactions to gateway B.

This is especially useful for companies with a large customer base, as it lowers the risk of having too many chargebacks occur for any one merchant account or payment gateway.
