Many sellers under one storefront
The buyer sees one brand and one cart, while the goods and services in it belong to different sellers: companies, sole proprietors and private contractors. The platform accepts the payment.
Acquiring for a marketplace: the buyer pays the platform by card or SBP, the platform keeps its commission and settles with sellers through payouts. Acceptance, payouts, safe deal and 54-FZ receipts under one contract.

How money moves on a platform
A regular store takes money for its own goods. A platform takes money for someone else's, and the payment does not end there
The buyer sees one brand and one cart, while the goods and services in it belong to different sellers: companies, sole proprietors and private contractors. The platform accepts the payment.
From every payment the platform keeps its commission, and the rest is due to the seller. The platform sets the splitting rules: a percentage, a fixed amount, different terms for different categories.
The amounts due go to sellers as bulk card payouts: by register from the dashboard or by event via the API, to one seller or to everyone at once for a period.
For platforms with services and private sellers: the buyer's money is held until the order is confirmed as fulfilled, and only then goes to the seller.
Payment on the storefront
The buyer pays for the whole order at once, even if the items come from three different sellers. The form opens on the site, in the app or on a MulenPay page and accepts Visa, Mastercard and MIR cards, SBP by QR code, SberPay and T-Pay. Cards from overseas banks are enabled separately.
Embedded with the widget or called through the API. Colours, fonts and the order of payment methods are tailored to the platform's brand so the buyer does not notice the handover to payment.

Payment flow
From the buyer's payment to money on the seller's card
Picks a method in the payment form and confirms the payment: via 3-D Secure for a card or in the banking app for SBP.
A webhook arrives on your server, the order in the platform's system is marked as paid, and the seller sees it in their section.
Ships the goods or provides the service. If safe deal is enabled, the money is still being held at this point.
Keeps its commission and sends the seller a payout to their card. The payout status also arrives as a webhook.
Onboarding
A platform almost always integrates through the API: it has its own logic for orders, sellers and settlements
Creating a payment, requesting a status, a refund and a payout: every operation is available through the REST API. Documentation with request examples is open at docs.mulenpay.com.
Notifications about payments, refunds and payouts arrive on your server so the platform does not have to poll statuses by hand.
A full or partial refund for a specific operation from the dashboard or via the API: for example, when one item in an order is cancelled.
If you would rather not build the payment form yourself, the widget connects with one script, and the API stays for statuses and payouts.
Receipts
Who issues the receipt to the buyer, the platform or the seller, depends on your working model: discuss it with your manager during onboarding
Receipts are issued by a cloud online cash register that we connect together with payment acceptance. The platform needs no hardware of its own.
The receipt goes to the buyer automatically after a successful payment; nothing has to be issued by hand.
Every receipt is stored in the dashboard together with the payment and can be downloaded when the buyer or your accountants ask for it.
Terms
Starting rates are public; final rates depend on the platform's turnover and are fixed in the contract
Russian bank cards, SBP, SberPay and T-Pay. Foreign cards from 8.9%, enabled separately.
The limit for a single buyer payment. A larger order is split into several payments.
Setup, integration and the dashboard are free. The platform pays a percentage of successful payments.
Keys, access to the documentation and the first test payment within one business day. The integration timeline depends on your team.
MulenPay provides software and infrastructure solutions. The service does not offer financial, payment, banking or investment services in its own name: all financial operations are carried out by licensed providers and partners. Final terms and rates are set out in the contract.
Who it is for
Any model where the buyer pays the platform and the money is due to someone else
Repairs, cleaning, tutors, craftspeople: the customer pays the platform upfront, the contractor receives a payout once the work is confirmed. Safe deal covers disputed cases.
Orders from many restaurants and stores in one app: a single buyer payment, settlement with the venue and the courier by payouts at the end of the day.
Goods from individuals: the buyer pays the platform by card, the money is held until the goods are received, then goes to the seller's card.
Dashboard
A platform needs to see not only how much buyers paid, but also how much went to sellers and how much it kept
Platform turnover, the share of each payment method and form conversion for any period.
Payments, refunds and payouts to sellers with statuses, register exports for reconciliation with sellers.

Security
Card details are entered in the MulenPay form and never reach the platform's servers, so the platform needs no certification of its own. Payment data protection is confirmed by a PCI DSS 4.0.1 certificate, and card payments are confirmed via 3-D Secure.
