Payment Profiles And Virtual Terminal Settings

Go to Administration, select Settings, and click on the Payment tab.  

You will view your payment profile. If you have more than one profile, you will see a payment profile drop-down menu at the top of your payment tab. Multiple payment profiles may be used for foreign currency processing or to manage payments on multiple products. Payment profiles may be linked to a unique Receipt Profile.  

Transactions processed on each payment profile will be grouped and settled in their own batches at auto-close time. 

Use the settings interface to configure your batch close time, AVS and CVV settings, and Virtual Terminal settings. The table below outlines the fields, settings, and descriptions.

NOTE: If you want additional Payment Profiles, contact our customer support team.

Auto Close Time CreditThe card batch will be closed for settlement at this time. By default, the batch closure time is 9:00 pm PST, but you can edit this and set the time that suits your business needs. The default time maximizes your funding time for transactions in the previous 24 hours.

AVS SettingsCustomize the authorization security level for all credit card transactions processed with the selected profile ID by turning on the Address Verification Service (AVS). You do so by specifying under what conditions you want to accept or reject a charge. Once enabled, the toggle option will show in green. If disabled, the toggle will show in white. You can configure to decline a transaction if there is No Match (N, I), Partial Match (A, W, Z, B, P), AVS Unavailable (U, R, S, C, G), and AVS Invalid (E).

To enable, click the toggle against the option you are configuring. Once enabled, the toggle option will show in green. If disabled, the toggle will show in white. You can configure to decline a transaction if the response is a No Match (N), Not Processed (P, S), and Issuer not certified for CVV (U).
Transaction Fee TypeSelect a Transaction Fee to add to transactions that use this payment profile.
This control appears only when you have one or more Transaction Fees active on your merchant account.
You may configure one fee per payment profile:
  • None: No additional fees will be added.
  • Surcharge: Charged for the privilege of using a credit card. The surcharge can be up to 3% of the total transaction amount.
  • Convenience Fee: Charged for the convenience of using an alternative payment channel outside the customary. It is a flat or fixed amount.
  • Service Fee (Flat or Percent): Charged by government or education entities only.

Then add the default percentage (for Surcharge or Service Fee—Percent) or default amount (Convenience Fee or Service Fee—Flat). This will be the default and maximum allowed fee on this payment profile.

Note: Contact our customer support team about adding Transaction Fees.
