### Understanding Payment Processing

Online payment processing allows you to streamline your collection process and manage all of your transaction data and billing infrastructure within Regpack. Here’s a guide to help you understand how it works and make the most of this feature.

***

### How Payment Processing Works

1. **User Registration and Payment**:\* Users register and make payments directly through Regpack.
   - Payments are automatically recorded in the user’s account for seamless tracking.
2. **24-Hour Payment Delay**:\* There is a 24-hour delay between the time a user initiates a payment and when they are charged.
   - During this window, admins have two options:\* [Cancel the Payment](https://help.regpack.com/managing-user-payments-on-the-backend): Avoid incurring processing fees by canceling during the delay.
     - [Capture the Payment](https://help.regpack.com/managing-user-payments-on-the-backend): Push the payment through immediately if necessary.
3. **Funds Transfer**:\* After processing, funds are deposited into your merchant account.
   - Processing fees are automatically deducted, and the remaining funds are transferred to your bank account.
   - The frequency of these transfers depends on the setup of your merchant account.
