# Account Groups

Gateway accounts can be assigned to an account group by setting a group number in the account. Account groups allow you to provide a subset of your gateway accounts to each application, or for specific purposes within an application. Payage applications should allow you to configure the account group that the application requests payment buttons for.

If an application is setup to use Payage group 1, it will only receive payment buttons for accounts in group 1. You could have accounts in group 2 that are used for a different application, but these will not be picked up by the group 1 application.

If an application requests buttons for group 0, it will receive all payment buttons of all groups for the relevant currency.

In Rentalot Plus you can specify two account groups, one for initial booking payments, and another group for subsequent (usually larger) payments. This allows you to offer a wider choice of payment options for initial reservations, and a more restricted choice of payment options for subsequent payments, where gateway fees maybe more of a concern.

MediaShop offers even more flexibility, with each purchasable product able to specify a different account group.

In FlexiContact Plus, each payment form can specify an account group.
