To integrate with WMS, your institution must use Flywire’s Comprehensive Receivables Solution (CRS). Your region and agreement with Flywire will determine which payment methods are supported but may include American Express, Discover, MasterCard, PayPal, Visa, bank transfer, and more.

Sensitive payment fields (card number, CVV, bank account number, etc.) are entered on the Flywire site so that the user input and storage of the data is handled securely by Flywire.
Flywire payments are reflected in WorldShare Circulation as soon as payment is confirmed by the processor.
Successful online payments are reflected in WorldShare Circulation as soon as payment is confirmed by Flywire. Flywire can provide payment confirmation notifications for users and library staff. If payment reconciliation fails (i.e. a successful Flywire payment cannot be reflected in WorldShare Circulation), WMS will send an email notification to the library user from the configured library staff email address.
