XML API | eMatters.com.au
The eMatters API Integration Method allows you to take advantage of eMatters direct Host to Host bank communications. All transactions are dleivered directly to our banking network without the eMatters webserver being involved.
You are in control of your own security, look and feel of the website and the entire customer experience.
Some of the modules available under this method, which is part of the Enterprise Edition, include -
