Only Payment Gateway Admins will have access to the Payment Gateways () function.  The majority of the Payment Gateways account information will have been set up for you in the implementation process for your system and will not need to be changed. 

This tool allows you to manage this critical Application Programming Interface (API) component if needed.  You can add, edit or delete gateways, assign gateways for various types of forms, or assign gateways for specific forms, events or campaigns.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Payment Gateway Admin Right

  • The Payment Gateway Admin right will NOT be added to Super Admins by default.  It must be added for any admin that needs access.
  • Payment Gateway admins will have a  Management menu on the toolbar which gives them access to the Payment Gateways page.
  • Payment Gateway admins can create new payment gateways as well as assign specific gateways to selected events, donation campaigns, etc.

Accounts

This is the top-level configuration for your payment gateways.  Generally, you will not need to make changes to this area after it is set up in site implementation.  The payment gateway you are working with will supply most of the needed data. 

Please contact your Account Manager for assistance if you're unsure about the changes you want to make.
