This Borica PrestaShop payment gateway is designed for making credit card payments through Borika (Bulgaria).
This payment gateway uses the redirect method where the user is redirected to the processing site (Borica) to make the actual payment.
After payment verification, Борика notifies the merchant's e-commerce site and returns the customer back to it. This process is transparent for the customer. The merchant can then connect to his Borica backoffice to administer his payments.
Compatible with PrestaShop 1.4 - 1.6
