Virtual Terminal Pay By Link

Select Virtual Terminal from the blue bar at the top of the screen.
 

If you wish to re-take a previous transaction at this stage you can use the reference number from the transactions screen. All you will need to re-enter is the CVV code.

1) Transaction Details

Transaction Process - Select Generate a Pay Button

Merchant Account - This will default to the Virtual Terminal MID (which is correct) otherwise you can change this to the American Express MID from the drop-down if required.

Transaction Action - Includes options for Sale, Refund, and Pre-Authorization.

Capture/Settle - To process the transaction now select "automatically immediately", otherwise you can set for the amount to be taken whenever you like.

Payment Type - "One Off" by default, otherwise you can use "Initial Recurring" for an RT agreement.

Unique Reference and Order Description - Non mandatory fields which can be used at your discretion.

An example of how these fields would be typically filled out is shown below:

2) Pay Button Details

Here you must include a web address that the payment page redirects to once the customer has inputted the details for the transaction. This can be either a payment successful page built through your website, or feel free to use the payment successful link we have setup on our website. https://www.card-saver.co.uk/successful-payment/

You can also set a redirect for a declined transaction (declined payment link - https://www.card-saver.co.uk/failed-payment/), as well as give the merchant the option to amend the amount they process.

It is recommended that Customer Address is kept as "Required" for AVS checking.
