Which checkout integration should I choose?

Compare Hosted, Embedded, and API before deciding what your team will build.

Article ACRU-002Acru product guide

Hosted checkout

Choose a hosted experience when you want a managed payment page instead of building the checkout interface. Plan the handoff from your product and the page customers return to after payment.

Embedded checkout

Choose embedded components when the payment step should sit inside your existing website or application. Confirm how the supported methods handle authentication, redirects, and completion states.

API-led checkout

Choose an API-led flow when your team needs to own the interface and payment orchestration. Scope error handling, confirmation, duplicate-request protection, and operational support as part of the build.

The public developer documentation currently describes an implementation-in-progress contract. Confirm API access and supported operations with Acru before treating those examples as production endpoints.
