Ideally, all payment gateway in Pakistan that support international payment schemes like VISA/MasterCard/Union Pay should be able to accept payments from outside Pakistan.

However, each payment gateway has policy of its own. Some gateways do not allow small size merchants to start receiving international payments from the get go. Usually established merchants who have good business and have been around for sometime are easily allowed.

Whichever gateway you decide to choose, check with the provider about international payments at the start so that you don’t have your integration wasted later.

Well, if you are a little bit interested in managing yourself, the learning curve is really low as its mainly out of the box solution for novice users.
