API setup
Setting up Authentication with BasicAuth
BasicAuth with Verifone requires a Username and Password. Both your Username (userID) and Password (API key), can be collected from Verifone Central
Collecting your Verifone credentials (environment variables)
-
Select an environment (Sandbox or Production)
-
Make sure you set up the base of the URL (environment) to be configurable for when you are ready to proceed to production.
-
Collect your Payment Provider Contract ID
-
The Payment Provider Contract (PPC) represents the merchants contract with their acquiring partner, including key details such as the Merchant ID.
-
-
Collect your 3D Secure Contract ID
-
During the 3D Secure Authentication Process, this is used to contact the issuing and acquiring banks.
-
-
Collect your secure card capture key and key alias
-
Verifone uses PGP encryption for securely storing card details during transmission. Your public key uniquely encrypts the Card details for Verifone to decrypt later using a Private key (which only Verifone has).
-
Your Key Alias is a reference to the public key. This is required in the payment step, as it identifies which public key was used at the time of encryption.
