Protx

Overview

If you use Protx to process credit card transactions, the Order Manager can interface directly with your Protx account. Payments for orders that are pre-authorized on your Website can be captured automatically when you approve those orders in the Order Manager. The Credit Card Terminal tab at the View Orders screen allows you to process new charges, credits, etc. without re-typing the customer’s credit card information.

 

The Order Manager is designed to work with Protx's VSP Direct system (not VSP Form). There are only a few steps to setting up the Order Manager to work with Protx. See the directions below.

 

For the Order Manager to properly recognize/identify the UK card types (Switch/Solo, etc.), you must establish the UK Card Names and the BIN (Bank ID Number) ranges used by the cards that you intend to accept. Enter this information at the Payment Methods screen. A list of the current BIN Ranges assigned to UK cards are available at http://www.barclaycardmerchantservices.co.uk/existing_customers/operational/pdf/binranges.pdf.
