1. Overview

Talview integrates with Lemon Squeezy, a Merchant of Record (MoR) platform, to simplify payments and tax compliance for exams, assessments, and certification bookings. With this integration: Candidates can pay seamlessly using Lemon Squeezy’s checkout. Talview automatically tracks payment status and updates candidate bookings. Global tax compliance (VAT, GST, sales tax) is handled by Lemon Squeezy.

​
2. How the Integration Works

​
a. Booking & Payment Flow

  1. Candidate Books an Exam → Candidate selects exam slot on Talview.
  2. Payment via Lemon Squeezy → Candidate is directed to a Lemon Squeezy checkout page.
  3. Transaction Completion → Lemon Squeezy processes payment, applies taxes, and confirms success or failure.
  4. **Talview Updates Booking: **
  • If Payment Successful → Candidate booking is confirmed.
  • If Payment Failed → Lemon Squeezy keeps the candidate on their portal on immediate failure and candidate can reattempt by changing payment method.
  • If Payment Pending → Booking stays on hold for 15 mins. If the payment confirmation is not sent by Lemon Squeezy within 15 mins, we cancel the booking.

​
