Windcave Payment Gateway Integration for Car Rental & Online Reservation Software
Connect Windcave payment processing with VEVS Car Rental Software and online reservation systems to keep bookings, card payments, deposits, payment status and customer information inside one coordinated workflow. The integration is suitable for rental, parking and reservation businesses that want their software to work with Windcave as their payment gateway and payment processing provider.
Windcave integrated for A Park Auckland Airport Parking
VEVS developed a custom Windcave payment integration for A Park, connecting online payment processing with the company's airport parking reservation workflow. Customers can reserve parking online, prepay for their booking and receive confirmation once the payment has been successfully processed.
A global payment platform for online, in-store and integrated payment processing
Windcave is a New Zealand-founded payment technology company providing integrated payment processing for online, in-store and unattended environments. Its payment gateway supports multiple integration methods, including REST API, Hosted Payment Page, merchant-hosted options and payment management tools, making it suitable for custom car rental, parking and reservation software integrations.
REST API Integration
Windcave provides a REST API for connecting secure payment processing directly with car rental websites, booking engines and reservation software.
Hosted Payment Page
Customers can be redirected to a Windcave-hosted payment page to enter payment details securely before returning to the reservation website.
Embedded Checkout Options
Windcave also supports Drop-In, Hosted Fields and merchant-hosted payment approaches for a more integrated checkout experience.
Credit & Debit Card Payments
Process supported credit and debit card payments as part of an online rental, parking or reservation checkout workflow.
Stored Card & Tokenization
Windcave can return secure stored-card tokens for approved merchant setups, supporting future payments without storing raw card details in VEVS.
Recurring & Rebilling
Supported stored-card workflows can be used for recurring, installment or merchant-initiated transactions where permitted and configured.
Paylink
Windcave Paylink can send a secure Hosted Payment Page link to a customer by email or SMS for additional or later payment collection.
Digital Payment Methods
Windcave supports additional payment methods such as Apple Pay and other enabled payment options, depending on the merchant account and market.
Windcave payment processing connected directly with reservation software
Windcave offers several API and checkout approaches that let VEVS connect the payment gateway with reservations, merchant references, customer information and transaction status. This allows online payments to become part of the booking workflow instead of being handled as a disconnected external process.
Windcave connected with A Park's online reservation and payment workflow
A Park needed online parking reservations and payments to work as one coordinated process. VEVS connected the booking workflow with Windcave so payment processing could form part of the reservation journey instead of requiring a separate manual process.
Customer starts the reservation
The customer selects the parking dates and required reservation options through the online booking process.
VEVS prepares the payment context
The reservation system prepares the relevant booking reference, payment amount and transaction information needed by the Windcave payment workflow.
Windcave processes the online payment
The custom payment gateway integration connects the booking process with the client's Windcave merchant environment for the configured transaction.
Payment status remains connected to the booking
The payment result is handled as part of the reservation workflow so the transaction status and corresponding booking remain coordinated.
Customer receives booking confirmation
Once payment has been successfully processed, the reservation can continue through the normal confirmation process with the relevant booking details and instructions.
Windcave can support more than a basic one-time online payment
Depending on the Windcave merchant account, acquiring setup, enabled payment methods and project requirements, VEVS can evaluate advanced payment workflows around car rental reservations, parking bookings, deposits, later charges, refunds and stored payment methods.

Online payment processing for A Park Auckland Airport Parking
A Park provides secure Auckland Airport park-and-ride parking with 24/7 shuttle transfers. Its website encourages customers to reserve and prepay online, with booking confirmation issued once payment has been successfully processed. The custom Windcave integration connects this payment step with the online reservation workflow.
Reserve airport parking online
The customer enters the required dates and booking details through A Park's online reservation process.
Prepay for the booking
The reservation payment is passed into the configured Windcave payment gateway workflow.
Process and return payment status
Windcave processes the transaction and the reservation workflow receives the relevant payment result.
Confirm the reservation
After successful payment, the customer receives the booking confirmation and the instructions needed for the airport parking service.
Keep Windcave connected to the reservation software your business uses
Businesses should not need to replace a working payment gateway or merchant relationship simply because reservation software does not support it. Custom VEVS development can connect Windcave payment processing with car rental, parking and other reservation workflows when the required APIs and merchant services are available.
Tell us how your reservation payment process should work
The right payment gateway integration starts with the business workflow. VEVS can review the Windcave functionality available to the merchant and define how reservations, card payments, deposits, later transactions, refunds and payment status should work inside the software.
- Full payment or deposit at booking
- Hosted Payment Page or embedded checkout
- Purchase, authorization and completion workflows
- Full or partial refund requirements
- Stored-card and tokenized payment workflows
- Later payment collection through Paylink
- Digital payment methods such as Apple Pay where enabled
- Online, in-store or multi-channel payment requirements
- Different merchant accounts or payment configurations by location
VEVS can integrate other car rental and reservation payment providers too
Windcave is one example of how VEVS can connect a client's preferred payment gateway or payment processor with reservation software. If your rental, parking or reservation business uses another local, regional or international payment provider, acquiring bank or merchant service, our team can review its API and technical documentation and determine whether a custom integration can be developed.
The goal is simple: your software should adapt to the way your business operates.
