## Expectations for the design and development of non-payment connectors

For most connectors, the implementation partner is responsible for the evaluation, design, development, implementation, and testing of the connector.  

Although the Optimizely team has created several connectors to common ERP, PIM, tax, and other data providers, these connectors should serve as a starting point, only, upon which the implementation partner may need to extend further to fit the unique needs of each client. 

See [Rules of Engagement: Payment Gateways for Configured Commerce](docId\:a_juskB1RlTwNUCxe6CB4) for more detail.

## Expectations for the design and development of payment gateways

In December 2023, the Optimizely Configured Commerce engineering team will release an integration with Spreedly, a global payments ecosystem. The addition of Spreedly grants clients access to more payment gateway options. Clients implementing new payment gateways on their Configured Commerce storefront must select a [payment gateway](https://docs.spreedly.com/reference/supported-gateways/) and a [payment method](https://docs.spreedly.com/reference/supported-payment-methods/) that Spreedly supports.

See [Payment gateway development expectations](docId\:a_juskB1RlTwNUCxe6CB4) for more detail.
