Payment Gateway
Overview
The AssureBuy payment gateway requires certain information to complete
the processing of each transaction. This required data will automatically be
sent to the payment gateway by the AssureBuy Payment Processing
application. The AssureBuy Payment Processing application will also
receive the data that is returned from the payment gateway and complete the
processing within the Great Plains software. Most of the processing is done
behind the scenes within the two software applications, but some of returned
data, such as approval code, is displayed. The Data Required and Data
Returned sections will explain the data used during payment processing.
The AssureBuy payment gateway performs the step of settlement after the
transaction results have been returned to the Great Plains Dynamics
software.
Data Required
Most of the information sent to the AssureBuy payment gateway is the same
type of information collected for any other type of payment. In addition to the
credit card number and expiration date, the payment gateway needs three
additional pieces of information to complete processing: the credit card type,
the transaction type and the IP address.
Credit Card Types
Each transaction accepted by the payment gateway will have a code
assigned to it based on the method of payment. The payment codes help
the seller identify the method of payment for the transaction. The
AssureBuy Payment Processing application enhances the Great Plains credit
card types by linking them to a set of predefined card types used by
AssureBuy. The AssureBuy payment gateway actually makes use of a 2-
character code that represents the credit card type. This 2-character code
may be seen on AssureBuy reports and within the AssureBuy Online
Administration system. The following table shows how these card type
identifiers are used within the Great Plains software.
