Shuttle Payment Links provides a consistent experience across many different payment providers, eliminating vendor lock-in. This enables provider switching without code changes, multi-provider routing based on transaction type, and a single solution across different parts of your business that have different payment processing requirements.

[Payment Providers](/payment-providers/) lists every payment provider you can connect, with the payment methods each one supports and a guide to connecting it. You connect yours in the Merchant Portal under **Configure** > **Payment Processing**. See [Payment processing](/merchants/merchant-portal/payment-configuration/).

## Fraud tools

Many payment providers have their own fraud protection. Shuttle also supports [Kount](/payment-providers/kount/), an external fraud tool. To use it, connect both your payment provider and Kount. It then comes up as an option under supported payment methods.

Kount is only available on request. Please contact [support@shuttleglobal.com](mailto:support@shuttleglobal.com) outlining your use case.
