Introduction to Payments {#payments-intro}
==========================================

This introduction provides the basic information that you need to successfully process payment transactions. It also provides an overview of the payments industry and provides workflows for each process.  
With `Visa Acceptance Solutions` payment services, you can process payment cards (tokenized or non-tokenized), digital payments such as Apple Pay and Google Pay, and customer ID transactions. You can process payments across the globe and across multiple channels with scalability and security. `Visa Acceptance Solutions` supports a large number of payment cards and offers a wide choice of gateways and financial institutions, all through one connection.

Financial Institutions and Payment Networks {#payments-intro-banks-overview}
============================================================================

Financial institutions and payment networks enable payment services to function. These entities work together to complete the full payment cycle.

Merchant Financial Institutions (Acquirers) {#payments-intro-banks-acquiring}
=============================================================================

A merchant financial institution, also known as an *acquirer*, offers accounts to businesses that accept payments. Before you can accept payments, you must have a merchant account from an acquirer. Your merchant account must be configured to process card-not-present or mail-order/telephone-order (MOTO) transactions.  
If excessive chargebacks or fraudulent changes occur, these actions might be taken:
* You might be required to change your business processes to reduce the number chargebacks, fraud, or both.
* Your acquiring institution might increase your discount rate.
* Your acquiring institution might revoke your merchant account.  
  Contact your sales representative for information about products that can help prevent fraud.

Customer Financial Institutions (Issuers) {#payments-intro-banks-issuing}
=========================================================================

A customer financial institution, also known as an *issuer*, provides payment cards to and underwrites lines of credit for their customers. The issuer provides monthly statements and collects payments. The issuer must follow the rules of the payment card companies to which they belong.

Payment Networks {#payments-intro-card-companies}
=================================================

Payment networks manage communications between acquirers and issuing banks. They also develop industry standards, support their brands, and establish fees for acquiring institutions.  
Some payment networks, such as Visa and Mastercard, are trade associations that do not issue cards. Issuers are members of these associations, and they issue cards under license from the association.  
Other networks, such as Discover, issue their own cards. Before you process cards from these companies, you must sign agreements with them.

Payment Processors {#payments-intro-processors}
===============================================

Payment processors connect with acquirers. Before you can accept payments, you must register with a payment processor.  
Your payment processor assigns one or more merchant IDs (MIDs) to your business. These unique codes identify your business during payment transactions.  
This table lists the processors and corresponding card types that are supported for payment services. IMPORTANT Only the card types explicitly listed here are supported.

[Payment Processor and Supported Card Types]

{#payments-intro-processors_supported-cards}

Card Types {#payments-intro-cards-types}
========================================

You can process payments with these kinds of cards:

* Co-branded cards
* Credit cards
* Debit cards
* Prepaid cards
* Private label cards
* Quasi-cash  
  For a list of supported card types, see [Payment Processors](/docs/vas/en-us/payments/developer/streamline2/rest/payments/payments-intro/payments-intro-banks-overview/payments-intro-processors.md "").

Co-Badged Cards {#payments-intro-cobadge-cards}
===============================================

Co-badged cards are credit and debit cards that integrate two or more payment networks.

Co-Branded Cards {#payments-intro-cobrand-cards}
================================================

Co-branded cards are credit cards that are branded with a merchant's logo, brand, or other identifier as well as the payment network logo. These cards are not limited for use at the branded merchant and can be used at any merchant that accepts credit cards.

Credit Cards {#payments-intro-credit-cards}
===========================================

Cardholders use credit cards to borrow money from issuing banks to pay for goods and services offered by merchants that accept credit cards.

Debit Cards {#payments-intro-debit-cards}
=========================================

A debit card is linked to a cardholder's bank account. The funds are taken out of the customer's bank account, and the transaction is included on the customer's bank account statement. The customer does not receive a credit card bill as with a regular credit card.

Prepaid Cards {#payments-intro-prepaid-cards}
=============================================

Prepaid cards enable cardholders to pay for goods and services using money stored directly on the card.

Private Label Cards {#payments-intro-private-cards}
===================================================

Private label cards are issued by private companies. They enable cardholders to borrow money to pay for goods exclusively at the issuing company's stores.

Transaction Types {#payments-intro-transactions-overview}
=========================================================

This topic provides information about transaction types that are supported by your processor.

Card-Not-Present Transactions {#payments-intro-transactions-card-not-present}
=============================================================================

When a customer provides a card number, but the card and the customer are not physically present at the merchant's location, the purchase is known as a *card-not-present transaction*. Typical card-not-present transactions are internet and phone transactions. Card-not-present transactions pose an additional level of risk to your business because the customer's identification cannot be verified. You can reduce that risk by using features such as the Address Verification System (AVS) and Card Verification Numbers (CVNs). The AVS and CVNs provide additional protection from fraud by verifying the validity of the customer's information and notifying you when discrepancies occur.

Authorizations with Card Verification Numbers {#payments-auth-cvn-intro}
========================================================================

Card verification numbers (CVNs) are a required feature for the authorization service.  
The CVN is printed on a payment card, and only the cardholder can access it. The CVN is used in card-not-present transactions as a verification feature. Using the CVN helps reduce the risk of fraud.  
CVNs are not included in payment card track data and cannot be obtained from a card swipe, tap, or dip.  
CVNs must not be stored after authorization.  
IMPORTANT In Europe, Visa mandates that you not include a CVN for mail-order transactions and not record a CVN on any physical format such as a mail-order form.

CVN Locations and Terminology {#payments-auth-cvn-locations}
============================================================

For most cards, the CVN is a three-digit number printed on the back of the card, to the right of the signature field.

#### Figure:

CVN Locations ![Image depicting the location of the CVN on the back of most cards and the front
of an American Express card.](/content/dam/documentation/cybs/en-us/topics/payments-processing/card-processing/payments/images/CVV_Location.svg/jcr:content/renditions/original)  
Each payment card company has its own name for the CVN value:

* JCB calls it the *card authentication value* (CAV2).
* Mastercard calls it the *card validation code* (CVC2).
* Visa calls it the *card verification value* (CVV2).

International Transactions {#payments-intro-transactions-intl}
==============================================================

Consider compliance and merchant remittance funding when processing international transactions.

Compliance {#payments-intro-compliance}
=======================================

Accepting payments from a country other than your own requires that you observe the processing rules and practices of the payment systems in that country. This list describes areas of compliance that are especially important:

* Merchant descriptor requirements---A merchant descriptor communicates merchant information to customers to remind them of the circumstances that triggered a payment. Merchant descriptors reduce the possibility of a chargeback. Accordingly, the merchant descriptor displayed on a customer's statement should be a close match to the name on your website. It is not good practice to consolidate multiple websites into a single merchant account and use a generic descriptor that more-or-less covers all offerings.
* Excessive chargebacks---To prevent an excessive number of chargebacks, you must maintain good customer support, rapid problem resolution, a high level of customer satisfaction, and transaction management processes that minimize fraudulent transactions. When payment card chargebacks become excessive, you must change business processes to reduce chargebacks. If chargebacks are not reduced to a satisfactory level, your account can be terminated.

Merchant Remittance Funding {#payments-intro-transactions-intl-remittance}
==========================================================================

You can request that the transaction proceeds be converted to another currency. Currency conversion uses a foreign exchange rate to calculate the conversion to the requested currency. The foreign exchange rate might be explicitly stated as a rate or implicitly stated as a transaction amount. The funded amount and can vary from day to day. The foreign exchange rate might also include an increase for the foreign exchange risk, sales commissions, and handling costs.

Payment Services {#payments-services-intro}
===========================================

Various services are involved in processing payments.  
These services enable customers to purchase goods and services. They also enable merchants to receive payments from customer accounts, to provide refunds, and to void transactions.

Authorization {#payments-intro-processing-auth}
===============================================

An authorization confirms that a payment card account holds enough funds to pay for a purchase. Authorizations can be made online or offline.

Online Authorization {#payments-intro-processing-auth-online}
=============================================================

Online authorizations provide immediate confirmation of funds availability. The customer's financial institution also reduces the amount of credit available in the customer's account, setting aside the authorized funds for the merchant to capture at a later time. Authorizations for most payment cards are processed online. Typically, it is safe to start fulfilling the order when you receive an authorization confirmation.  
AnAn online authorization confirmation and the subsequent hold on funds expire after a specific length of time. Therefore it is important to capture funds in a timely manner. The issuing bank sets the expiration time interval, but most authorizations expire within 5 to7 days.  
The issuing bank does not inform `Visa Acceptance Solutions` when an authorization confirmation expires. By default, the authorization information for each transaction remains in the `Visa Acceptance Solutions` database for 180 days after the authorization date. To capture an authorization that expired with the issuing bank, you can resubmit the authorization request.

Offline Authorization {#payments-intro-processing-auth-offline}
===============================================================

Online transactions require an internet connection. In situations where the internet is not available, for example, due to an outage, merchants can continue to take credit card payments using offline transactions. An offline authorization is an authorization request for which you do not receive an immediate confirmation about the availability of funds.  
Offline authorizations have a higher level of risk than online transactions because they do not confirm funds availability or set aside the funds for later capture. Further, it can take up to 5 days to receive payment confirmations for offline transactions. To mitigate this risk, merchants may choose to fulfill orders only after receiving payment confirmation.

Pre-Authorization {#payments-intro-pre-auths}
=============================================

A pre-authorization enables you to authorize a payment when the final amount is unknown. The system places the funds on hold until you request a follow-up transaction. Pre-authorizations are typically used for lodging, auto rental, e-commerce, and restaurant transactions.
IMPORTANT Payment Services Directive 2 (PSD2) rules in the European Union (EU) and European Economic Area (EEA) require the initial pre-authorization to use strong customer authentication for merchants or customers in PSD2-applicable countries.  
When you have a specific merchant category code (MCC) assigned to your account, you are allowed to capture up to 20% more than the cumulatively authorized amount on Visa, Diners Club, Discover, and JCB cards. Contact your account manager to have your account enabled for this option.  
For a pre-authorization:

* The authorization amount is greater than zero.
* Submit the authorization for capture within 30 calendar days of its request.
* When you do not capture the authorization, reverse it.  
  In the US, Canada, Latin America, and Asia Pacific, Mastercard charges an additional fee for a pre-authorization that is not captured and not reversed.  
  In Europe, Russia, Middle East, and Africa, Mastercard charges fees for all pre-authorizations.
* Chargeback protection is in effect for 30 days after the authorization.

Payment Network Token Authorization {#payments-intro-processing-auth-pnt}
=========================================================================

You can integrate authorizations with payment network tokens into your existing order management system. For an incremental authorization, you do not need to include any payment network tokenization fields in the authorization request because `Visa Acceptance Solutions` obtains the payment network tokenization information from the original authorization request.

Authorization Workflow {#payments-intro-processing-auth-workflow}
=================================================================

This image and description show the authorization workflow:  
![](/content/dam/documentation/cybs/en-us/topics/payments-processing/card-processing/payments/images/Authorization2.svg/jcr:content/renditions/original)

1. The customer purchases goods or services from the merchant using a payment card.
2. You send an authorization request over secure internet connection to `Visa Acceptance Solutions`. When the customer buys a digitally delivered product or service, you can request both the authorization and the capture at the same time. When the customer buys a physically fulfilled product, do not request the capture until you ship the product.
3. `Visa Acceptance Solutions` validates the order information then contacts your payment processor and requests authorization.
4. The processor sends the transaction to the payment card company, which routes it to the issuing bank for the customer's payment card. Some card companies, including Discover, act as their own issuing banks.
5. The issuing bank approves or declines the request.
   * If funds are available, the issuing bank reserves the amount of the authorization request and returns an authorization approval to `Visa Acceptance Solutions`.
   * If the issuing bank denies the request, it returns an authorization denial to `Visa Acceptance Solutions`.
     {#payments-intro-processing-auth-workflow_ul_smg_gg5_rbc}
6. `Visa Acceptance Solutions` runs its own tests then tells you whether the authorization succeeded.

Sale {#payments-intro-processing-sales}
=======================================

A sale is a bundled authorization and capture. Some processors and acquirers require a sale transaction instead of using separate authorization and capture requests. For other processors and acquirers, you can request a sale instead of a separate authorization and capture when you provide the goods or services immediately after taking an order.  
There are two types of sale processing: dual-message processing and single-message processing.

Dual-Message Processing {#payments-intro-processing-sales-dual}
===============================================================

Dual-message processing is a two-step process. The authorization is processed first. If the authorization is successful, the capture is processed immediately afterward. The response includes the authorization and the capture information. If the authorization is declined, the capture is not processed, and the response message includes only the authorization information.

Partial Authorizations {#payments-intro-processing-sales-dual-partialauth}
==========================================================================

All debit and prepaid card processors as well as a limited number of credit card processors support partial authorizations when dual-message processing is in place.  
When partial authorization is enabled, the issuing financial institution can approve a partial amount when the balance on the card is less than the requested amount. When a partial amount is authorized, the capture is not processed. The merchant can then use a second card to cover the balance, adjust the total cost, or void the transaction.

Single-Message Processing {#payments-intro-processing-sales-single}
===================================================================

Single-message processing treats the authorization and capture as a single transaction. There are important differences between dual-message processing and single-message processing:

* Single-message processing treats the request as a full-financial transaction, and with a successful transaction, funds are immediately transferred from the customer account to the merchant account.
* Authorization and capture amounts must be the same.
* Some features cannot be used with single-message processing.

Authorization Reversal {#payments-intro-processing-reversal}
============================================================

The authorization reversal service releases the hold that an authorization placed on a customer's payment card funds.  
Each card-issuing financial institution has its own rules for deciding whether an authorization reversal succeeds or fails. When a reversal fails, contact the card-issuing financial institution to learn whether there is a different way to reverse the authorization.  
If your processor supports authorization reversal after void (ARAV), you can reverse an authorization after you void the associated capture. If your processor does not support ARAV, you can use the authorization reversal service only for an authorization that has not been captured and settled.  
An authorization reversal is a follow-on transaction that uses the request ID returned from an authorization. The main purpose of a follow-on transaction is to link two transactions. The request ID links the follow-on transaction to the original transaction. The authorization request ID is used to look up the customer's billing and account information in the `Visa Acceptance Solutions` database. You are not required to include those fields in the full authorization reversal request. The original transaction and follow-on transaction are linked in the database and in `Business Center`.

> IMPORTANT
> You cannot perform an authorization reversal if a transaction is in a review state, which can occur if you use a fraud management service. You must reject the transaction prior to authorization reversal. For more information, see the fraud management documentation in ` Business Center `.

Capture {#payments-intro-processing-capture}
============================================

A capture is a follow-on transaction to an authorization. It is used to transfer the authorized funds from the customer's account to the merchant account. To link the authorization transaction to the capture transaction, you include a request ID in your capture request. This request ID is returned to you in the authorization response.  
Captures are typically not performed in real time. They are placed in a batch file and sent to the processor, and the processor settles all of the captures at one time. In most cases, these batch files are sent and processed outside of the merchant's business hours. It usually takes 2 to 4 days for the acquiring financial institution to deposit the funds into the merchant account.  
When fulfilling only part of a customer's order, do not capture the full amount of the authorization. Capture only the cost of the delivered items. When you deliver the remaining items, request a new authorization, and then capture the new authorization.

> IMPORTANT
> It is not possible to perform a capture if a transaction is in a review state, which can occur if you use a fraud management service. You must accept the transaction prior to capture. For more information, see the fraud management documentation in ` Business Center `.

Capture Workflow {#payments-intro-processing-capture-workflow}
==============================================================

The capture workflow begins when you send a request for a capture.  
![](/content/dam/documentation/cybs/en-us/topics/payments-processing/card-processing/payments/images/payments-capture-flow-660x225.svg/jcr:content/renditions/original)

1. The merchant sends a request for a capture to the `Visa Acceptance Solutions` gateway.
2. For online captures, `Visa Acceptance Solutions` validates the order information then sends an online capture to the payment processor. For offline captures, `Visa Acceptance Solutions` stores the capture request in a batch file and sends the batch file to the payment processor after midnight.
3. The processor validates the request and forwards it to the issuing bank.
4. The issuing bank transfers funds to the acquiring bank.

> IMPORTANT
> The payment processor does not notify ` Visa Acceptance Solutions ` that the money has been transferred. To ensure that all captures are processed correctly, you should reconcile your capture requests with the capture reports from your processor.

Refund {#payments-intro-processing-credit}
==========================================

Refunds are payment refunds from a merchant to the cardholder after a cardholder pays for a product or service and that payment is captured by the merchant. When a refund request is successful, the issuer transfers funds from the merchant bank (acquirer) account to the customer's account. It typically takes 2 to 4 days for the acquirer to transfer funds from your merchant account.  
There are two types of refunds: a *follow-on refund* that is linked to an original capture or sale, and a *stand-alone credit* that is not linked to an original capture or sale.

> WARNING
> You should carefully control access to your refund and credit services. Do not request this service directly from your customer interface. Instead, incorporate this service as part of your customer service process. This process reduces the potential for fraudulent transactions.

Follow-on Refund
----------------

Refunds, also known as *follow-on refunds*, use the capture request ID to link the refund to the original transaction. This request ID is returned during the capture request (also known as a *settlement*) and is used in all subsequent refunds associated with the original capture. The request ID links the transaction to the customer's billing and account information, so you are not required to include those fields in the refund request.
When you combine a request for a refund with a request for another service, such as the tax calculation service, you must provide the customer's billing and account information.  
Unless otherwise specified, refunds must be requested within 180 days of a settlement. You can request multiple follow-on refunds against a single capture or sale transaction as long as the total amount does not exceed the original purchase amount. To perform multiple follow-on refunds, use the same request ID in each request.

Stand-Alone Credits
-------------------

Stand-alone credits are not connected to an original transaction. Stand-alone credits do not have a time restriction, and they can be used to issue refunds more than 180 days after a transaction settlement.

Refund and Credit Workflow {#payments-intro-processing-credit-workflow}
=======================================================================

This workflow applies to follow-on credits, also known as refunds, and stand-alone credits. It begins when you send a request for a refund or credit.  
Refunds and credits do not happen in real time. All of the credit requests for a day are typically placed in a file and sent to the processor as a single *batch* transaction. In most cases, the batch transaction is settled overnight.  
![](/content/dam/documentation/cybs/en-us/topics/payments-processing/card-processing/payments/images/payments-credit-660x225.svg/jcr:content/renditions/original)

1. The merchant sends the refund or credit request to `Visa Acceptance Solutions`.
2. For online refunds and credits, `Visa Acceptance Solutions` validates the order information then sends the request to the payment processor. For offline refunds and credits, `Visa Acceptance Solutions` stores the request in a batch file and sends the batch file to the payment processor after midnight.
3. The processor validates the request and forwards it to the acquiring bank.
4. The acquiring bank transfers funds to the issuing bank.

IMPORTANT Not all processors support stand-alone credits.

Void {#payments-intro-processing-void}
======================================

A void cancels a capture or credit request that you submitted to `Visa Acceptance Solutions` but has not already been submitted to your processor. Capture and credit requests are usually submitted to your processor once a day, so your window for successfully voiding a capture or credit request is small. A void request is declined when the capture or credit request has already been sent to the processor.  
After a void is processed, you cannot credit or capture the funds. You must perform a new transaction to capture or credit the funds. Further, when you void a capture, a hold remains on the authorized funds. If you are not going to re-capture the authorization, you should request an authorization reversal to release the hold on the unused funds.  
A void uses the capture or credit request ID to link the transactions. The authorization request ID is used to look up the customer's billing and account information, so there is no need to include those fields in the void request. You cannot perform a follow-on credit against a capture that has been voided.

Payment Features {#payments-features-intro}
===========================================

You can apply features to different payment services to enhance the customer payment processing experience. This section includes an overview of these features:

* [Debit and Prepaid Card Payments](/docs/vas/en-us/payments/developer/streamline2/rest/payments/payments-intro/payments-features-intro/payments-debit-prepaid-intro.md "")
* [Payer Authentication](/docs/vas/en-us/payments/developer/streamline2/rest/payments/payments-intro/payments-features-intro/payments-processing-pa-intro.md "")

Debit and Prepaid Card Payments {#payments-debit-prepaid-intro}
===============================================================

Debit cards are linked to a cardholder's checking account. The funds are taken out of the customer's bank account, and the transaction is included on the customer's bank account statement. The customer does not receive a credit card bill as with a regular credit card.  
You can process debit cards using these services:

* Credit card services

Payer Authentication {#payments-processing-pa-intro}
====================================================

Payer authentication is run before a transaction is submitted for authorization. Most of the time payer authentication is bundled with authorization so that after payer authentication happens, the transaction is automatically submitted for authorization. Payer authentication and authorization can be configured to occur as separate operations. This section shows you how to run payer authentication as a separate process and pass the payer authentication data when seeking authorization for a transaction.  
Payer authentication consists of a two-step verification process that adds an extra layer of fraud protection during the payment process. During transactions, the transaction device, location, past purchasing habits, and other factors are analyzed for indications of fraud. This process collects customer data during the transaction from at least two of these three categories:

* **Something you have**: A payment card or a payment card number
* **Something you know**: A password or pin
* **Something you are**: Facial recognition or fingerprint

Each of these payment card companies has its own payer authentication product:

* **Discover**: ProtectBuy
* **JCB**: J/Secure
* **Mastercard**: Identity Check
* **Visa**: Visa Secure

Payer authentication can be used to satisfy the Strong Customer Authentication (SCA) requirement of the Payment Services Directive (PSD2). SCA applies to the European Economic Area (EEA) and the United Kingdom. SCA requires banks to perform additional checks when customers make payments to confirm their identity.  
See [Payer Authentication Processing](/docs/vas/en-us/payments/developer/streamline2/rest/payments/payments-processing-pa-process-intro.md "") for information about how to process payments with payer authentication.

Token Management Service {#payment-tms-intro}
=============================================

The `Token Management Service` (`TMS`) enables you to replace personally identifiable information (PII), such as the primary account numbers (PANs), with unique tokens. These tokens do not include the PII data, but act as a placeholder for the personal information that would otherwise need to be shared. By using tokens, businesses can provide a secure payment experience, reduce the risk of fraud, and comply with industry consumer security regulations such as PCI-DSS.  
`TMS` links tokens across service providers, payment types, and channels for sellers, acquirers, and technology partners. `TMS` tokenizes, securely stores, and manages the primary account number (PAN), the payment card expiration date, electronic check details, and customer data. `TMS` also enables you to create a network token of a customer's payment card.
IMPORTANT Due to mandates from the Reserve Bank of India, merchants based in India cannot store PANs. Use network tokens instead.  
You can manage sensitive data securely by creating, retrieving, updating, and deleting tokens through the [TMS API](https://developer.visaacceptance.com/api-reference-assets/index.md#token-management "").  
`TMS` simplifies your PCI DSS compliance. `TMS` passes tokens back to you that represent this data. You then store these tokens in your environment and databases instead of storing customer payment details.  
`TMS` protects sensitive payment information through tokenization and secures and manages customer data using these token types:

* Customer tokens
* Instrument identifier tokens
* Payment instrument tokens
* Shipping address tokens

These `TMS` tokens can be used individually, or they can be associated with one customer token:

#### Figure:

`TMS` Token Types  
![Diagram of the unified token identifier.](/content/dam/documentation/cybs/en-us/topics/payments-processing/payment-services/tms/images/token-types-intro-600x400.svg/jcr:content/renditions/original)

Testing the Payment Services {#payments-testing-services}
=========================================================

To ensure that requests are processed correctly, you must test the basic success and error conditions for each service you plan to use.

Requirements for Testing {#payments-testing-requirements}
=========================================================

Before you can test, contact customer support to activate the credit card services and configure your account for testing. You must also contact your processor to set up your processor account.

> IMPORTANT
> When building your connection to the ` Visa Acceptance Solutions ` payment gateway, ensure that you have implemented controls to prevent card testing or card enumeration attacks on your platform. For more information, see the [best practices guide](https://www.cybersource.com/content/dam/documents/en/payment-card-testing-bot-attacks.pdf ""). When we detect suspicious transaction activity associated with your merchant ID, including a card testing or card enumeration attack, ` Visa Acceptance Solutions ` reserves the right to enable fraud management tools on your behalf in order to mitigate the attack. The fraud team might also implement internal controls to mitigate attack activity. These controls block traffic that is perceived as fraudulent. Additionally, if you are using one of our fraud tools and experience a significant attack, our internal team might modify or add rules to your configuration to help prevent the attack and minimize the threat to our infrastructure. However, any actions taken by ` Visa Acceptance Solutions ` would not replace the need for you to follow industry standard best practices to protect your systems, servers, and platforms.  
> Follow these requirements when you test your system:

* Use your regular merchant ID.
* Use a real combination for the city, state, and postal code.
* Use a real combination for the area code and telephone number.
* Use a nonexistent account and domain name for the customer's email address.
* REST API test endpoint: `POST ``https://apitest.visaacceptance.com``/pts/v2/payments`{#payments-testing-requirements_restauth-test}

Test Card Numbers {#payments-testing-cards}
===========================================

Use these payment card numbers to test the authorization, capture, and credit services. Remove the spaces from the test card numbers when sending them to the test system. Do not use real payment card numbers. To test card types that are not included in the list, use an account number that is in the card's BIN range. For best results, try each test with a different service request and with different test payment card numbers.

> IMPORTANT The test card numbers that are provided are formatted with Xs for zeroes in the card number. When testing with these card numbers, remove the spaces and replace each X with a 0 (zero).

Using Amounts to Simulate Errors {#payments-testing-amounts}
============================================================

You can simulate error messages by requesting authorization, capture, or credit services with specific amounts that trigger the error messages. These triggers work only on the test server, not on the production server.  
Each payment processor uses its own error messages. For more information, see: [REST API Testing Guide](https://developer.visaacceptance.com/hello-world/testing-guide.md "")

Test American Express Card Verification {#payments-testing-amex}
================================================================

Before using CVN with American Express, it is strongly recommended that you follow these steps:

1. Contact customer support to have your account configured for CVN. Until you do this, you will receive a `1` in the processorInformation.cardVerification.resultCode response field.
2. Test your system in production using a small currency amount, such as one currency unit. Instead of using the test account numbers, use a real payment card account number, and send an incorrect CVN in the request for authorization. The card should be refused and the request declined.

Standard Payment Processing {#payments-processing-basic-intro}
==============================================================

This section shows you how to process various authorization, capture, credit, and sales transactions.

Basic Authorization {#payments-processing-basic-auth-intro}
===========================================================

This section provides the information you need in order to process a basic authorization.
All supported card types can process authorizations.

Endpoint {#payments-processing-basic-auth-intro_d8e16}
------------------------------------------------------

**Production:** `POST ``https://api.visaacceptance.com``/pts/v2/payments`{#payments-processing-basic-auth-intro_d8e25}  
**Test:** `POST ``https://apitest.visaacceptance.com``/pts/v2/payments`{#payments-processing-basic-auth-intro_d8e35}

Declined Authorization {#payments-intro-processing-auth-decline}
================================================================

If an authorization is declined, you can use response categories to help you decide whether to retry or block a declined transaction. These response fields provide additional information:

* paymentInsightsInformation.responseInsights.category
* paymentInsightsInformation.responseInsights.categoryCode

Category codes have possible values (such as `01`) each of which corresponds to a category that contains a description.  
You cannot retry this category code and category:

* `01 ISSUER_WILL_NEVER_APPROVE`

{#payments-intro-processing-auth-decline_ul_wxl_1yx_f5b}For these values, you can retry the transaction a maximum of 15 times over a period of 30 days:


* `02 ISSUER_CANNOT_APPROVE_AT_THIS_TIME`
* `03 ISSUER_CANNOT_APPROVE_WITH_THESE_DETAILS`: Data quality issue. Revalidate data prior to retrying the transaction.
* `04 GENERIC_ERROR`
* `97 PAYMENT_INSIGHTS_INTERNAL_ERROR`
* `98 OTHERS`
* `99 PAYMENT_INSIGHTS_RESPONSE_CATEGORY_MATCH_NOT_FOUND`

Authorization with Line Items {#payments-processing-basic-auth-lineitem-intro}
==============================================================================

This section shows you how to process an authorization with line items.
The main difference between a basic authorization and an authorization that includes line items is that the orderInformation.amountDetails.totalAmount field, which is included in a basic authorization, is substituted with one or more line items that are included in a lineItem\[\] array.

Fields Specific to this Use Case
--------------------------------

These fields are required for each line item that you use:

orderInformation.lineItems\[\].unitPrice
:

orderInformation.lineItems\[\].quantity
:

orderInformation.lineItems\[\].productCode
:

orderInformation.lineItems\[\].productSku
:
Optional when item_#_productCode is set to `default`, `shipping_only`, `handling_only`, or `shipping_and_handling`

orderInformation.lineItems\[\].productName
:
Optional when item_#_productCode is set to `default`, `shipping_only`, `handling_only`, or `shipping_and_handling`
{#payments-processing-basic-auth-lineitem-intro_dl_ht4_hlx_rxb}  
At a minimum, you must include the orderInformation.lineItems\[\].unitPrice field in order to include a line item in an authorization. When this field is the only field included in the authorization, the system sets:

* orderInformation.lineItems\[\].productCode: `default`
* orderInformation.lineItems\[\].quantity: `1`

For example, these three line items are valid.

```
"orderInformation": {
  "lineItems": [
    {
      "unitPrice": "10.00"
    },
    {
      "unitPrice": "5.99",
      "quantity": "3",
      "productCode": "shipping_only"
    },
    {
      "unitPrice": "29.99",
      "quantity": "3",
      "productCode": "electronic_good",
      "productSku": "12384569",
      "productName": "receiver"
    }

Authorization with a Card Verification Number {#payments-auth-cvn-procedure}
============================================================================

This section shows you how to process an authorization with a Card Verification Number (CVN).

CVN Results
-----------

The response includes a raw response code and a mapped response code:

* The raw response code is the value returned by the processor. This value is returned in the processorInformation.cardVerification.resultCodeRaw field. Use this value only for debugging purposes; do not use it to determine the card verification response.
* The mapped response code is the pre-defined value that corresponds to the raw response code. This value is returned in the processorInformation.cardVerification.resultCode field.  
  Even when the CVN does not match the expected value, the issuing bank might still authorize the transaction. You will receive a CVN decline, but you can still capture the transaction because it has been authorized by the bank. However, you must review the order to ensure that it is legitimate.  
  Settling authorizations that fail the CVN check might have an impact on the fees charged by your bank. Contact your bank for details about how card verification management might affect your discount rate.  
  When a CVN decline is received for the authorization in a sale request, the capture request is not processed unless you set the processingInformation.authorizationOptions.ignoreCvResult field to `true`.

CVN Results for Discover
:

CVN Results for Visa and Mastercard
:
A CVN code of `D` or `N` causes the request to be declined with a reason code value of `230`. You can still capture the transaction, but you must review the order to ensure that it is legitimate.

    `Visa Acceptance Solutions`, not the issuer, assigns the CVN decline to the authorization. You can capture any authorization that has a valid authorization code from the issuer, even when the request receives a CVN decline.

    When the issuer does not authorize the transaction and the CVN does not match, the request is declined because the card is refused. You cannot capture the transaction.

Authorization with Strong Customer Authentication Exemption {#payments-processing-pa-sca-exempts-intro}
=======================================================================================================

This section shows you how to process an authorization with a strong customer authentication (SCA) exemption.  
You can use SCA exemptions to streamline the payment process. SCA exemptions are part of the European second Payment Services Directive (PSD2) and allow certain types of low-risk transactions to bypass additional authentication steps while still remaining compliant with PSD2. You can choose which exemption can be applied to a transaction, but the card-issuing bank actually grants an SCA exemption during card authentication.  
You can process an authorization with two types of SCA exemptions:

* **Exemption on Authorization**: Send an authorization without payer authentication and request an SCA exemption on the authorization. If it is not approved, you may be required to request further authentication upon retry.
* **Exemption on Authentication**: Request an SCA exemption during payer authentication and if successful, send an authorization including the SCA exemption details.  
  Depending on your processor, use one of these exemption fields:

> IMPORTANT If you send more than one SCA exemption field with a single authentication, the transaction is denied.

* **Authentication Outage**: Payer authentication is not available for this transaction due to a system outage.
* **B2B Corporate Card**: Payment cards specifically for business-to-business transactions are exempt.
* **Delegated Authentication**: Payer authentication was performed outside of the authorization workflow.
* **Follow-On Installment Payment**: Installment payments of a fixed amount are exempt after the first transaction.
* **Follow-On Recurring Payment**: Recurring payments of a fixed amount are exempt after the first transaction.
* **Low Risk**: The average fraud levels associated with this transaction are considered low.
* **Low Value**: The transaction value does not warrant SCA.
* **Merchant Initiated Transactions**: As follow-on transactions, merchant-initiated transactions are exempt.
* **Stored Credential Transaction**: Credentials are authenticated before storing, so stored credential transactions are exempt.
* **Trusted Merchant**: Merchants registered as trusted beneficiaries.

Fields Specific to the Strong Customer Authentication Exemptions {#payments-processing-pa-sca-exempts-intro_fields-specific-to-auth}

Account Verification with a Zero Amount Authorization {#payments-processing-basic-zero-auth-intro}
==================================================================================================

Account verification with zero amount authorization is a standard e-commerce practice where you send a zero amount transaction to verify a card is valid and whether the card is lost or stolen. You cannot capture a zero amount authorization.  
Most card networks refer to card account validation as zero amount authorization (ZAA). These card networks have their own names for the service:

* Discover Zero Dollar Authorization
* Visa Account Verification

Pre-Authorization {#payments-processing-pre-auth-intro}
=======================================================

This section provides the information you need in order to process a pre-authorization.  
A pre-authorization enables you to authorize a payment when the final amount is unknown. The system places the funds on hold until you request a follow-up transaction. Pre-authorizations are typically used for lodging, auto rental, e-commerce, and restaurant transactions.
IMPORTANT Payment Services Directive 2 (PSD2) rules in the European Union (EU) and European Economic Area (EEA) require the initial pre-authorization to use strong customer authentication for merchants or customers in PSD2-applicable countries.  
When you have a specific merchant category code (MCC) assigned to your account, you are allowed to capture up to 20% more than the cumulatively authorized amount on Visa, Diners Club, Discover, and JCB cards. Contact your account manager to have your account enabled for this option.  
For a pre-authorization:

* The authorization amount is greater than zero.
* Submit the authorization for capture within 30 calendar days of its request.
* When you do not capture the authorization, reverse it.  
  In the US, Canada, Latin America, and Asia Pacific, Mastercard charges an additional fee for a pre-authorization that is not captured and not reversed.  
  In Europe, Russia, Middle East, and Africa, Mastercard charges fees for all pre-authorizations.
* Chargeback protection is in effect for 30 days after the authorization.

Final Authorization Indicator {#payments-final-auth-indicator}
==============================================================

The purpose of this feature is to ensure that unused funds are reversed, so that customer's funds are available again when an order is not fulfilled.  
For an authorization with an amount greater than zero, indicate whether the authorization is a final authorization, a pre-authorization, or an undefined authorization.  
You can set a default authorization type in your account. To set the default authorization type in your account, contact customer support.  
Chargeback protection is in effect for seven days after the authorization.

Supported Service
-----------------

* Authorization

Supported Card Types {#payments-final-auth-indicator_lcr-process-prereq}
------------------------------------------------------------------------

* Maestro (International)
* Maestro (UK Domestic)
* Mastercard

Requirements for Final Authorizations {#payments-final-auth-indicator-final-auth}
=================================================================================

For a final authorization:

* The authorization amount must be greater than zero.
* The authorization amount must be the final amount that the customer agrees to pay.
* The authorization should not be cancelled after it is approved except when a system failure occurs.
* The authorization must be submitted for capture within seven calendar days of its request.
* The capture amount and currency must be the same as the authorization amount and currency.

Pre-Authorizations {#payments-final-auth-indicator-preauth}
===========================================================

A pre-authorization enables you to authorize a payment when the final amount is unknown. The system places the funds on hold until you request a follow-up transaction. Pre-authorizations are typically used for lodging, auto rental, e-commerce, and restaurant transactions.
IMPORTANT Payment Services Directive 2 (PSD2) rules in the European Union (EU) and European Economic Area (EEA) require the initial pre-authorization to use strong customer authentication for merchants or customers in PSD2-applicable countries.  
When you have a specific merchant category code (MCC) assigned to your account, you are allowed to capture up to 20% more than the cumulatively authorized amount on Visa, Diners Club, Discover, and JCB cards. Contact your account manager to have your account enabled for this option.  
For a pre-authorization:

* The authorization amount is greater than zero.
* Submit the authorization for capture within 30 calendar days of its request.
* When you do not capture the authorization, reverse it.  
  In the US, Canada, Latin America, and Asia Pacific, Mastercard charges an additional fee for a pre-authorization that is not captured and not reversed.  
  In Europe, Russia, Middle East, and Africa, Mastercard charges fees for all pre-authorizations.
* Chargeback protection is in effect for 30 days after the authorization.

Authorization Reversal {#payments-processing-basic-auth-reversal-intro}
=======================================================================

This section provides the information about how to process an authorization reversal.  
Reversing an authorization releases the hold on the customer's payment card funds that the issuing bank placed when processing the authorization.  
For a debit card or prepaid card in which only a partial amount was approved, the amount of the reversal must be the amount that was authorized, not the amount that was requested.  
All supported card types can process authorization reversals.

Multiple Partial Capture {#payments-processing-capture-multi-intro}
===================================================================

This section shows you how to process multiple partial captures for an authorization.
This feature enables you to request multiple partial captures for one authorization. A multiple partial capture allows you to incrementally settle authorizations over time. Ensure that the total amount of all the captures does not exceed the authorized amount.

Requirements
------------

`Streamline` might consider a partial capture to be a duplicate and reject the transaction when one or more of these fields is the same for a merchant ID. Ensure that you do not submit duplicate transaction information when using multiple partial captures, otherwise `Streamline` might reject the transaction.

Follow-On Refund {#payments-processing-basic-refund-intro}
==========================================================

This section provides the information you need in order to process a follow-on refund, which is linked to a capture or sale. You must request a follow-on refund within 180 days of the authorization or sale.
When your account is enabled for credit authorizations, also known as purchase return authorizations, `Visa Acceptance Solutions` authenticates the card and customer during a follow-on refund or stand-alone credit request. Every credit request is automatically authorized.  
Credit authorization results are returned in these response fields:

* processorInformation.approvalCode
* processorInformation.networkTransactionId
* processorInformation.responseCode
  {#payments-processing-basic-refund-intro_d19e25}  
  When you request a void for a refund or credit before settlement, the refund or credit is voided. If your account is enabled for credit authorizations, the credit authorization is also reversed.

Debt Repayment {#payments-debt-repay-auth-intro}
================================================

This feature is supported for Mastercard and Visa debit cards in the United Kingdom.  
The United Kingdom has a regulation that permits customers to use a debit card to pay outstanding debt for another person. This person is referred to as the payment recipient. These are the types of loans that can qualify for this program:

* Loans

* Credit card balances

* Funding the purchase of goods or services by an entity that is not the seller of the goods or services  
  To help reduce the high levels of fraud that occur for these kinds of transactions, you must include information about the recipient in the authorization request. These fields are required in the United Kingdom for debit transactions that are characterized under merchant category code 6012 or 6051:

* recipientInformation.accountId

* recipientInformation.dateOfBirth

* recipientInformation.lastName

* recipientInformation.postalCode  
  Debt repayment transactions are subject to regulatory and compliance requirements, including Know Your Customer (KYC) and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) verifications. Collecting recipient details such as date of birth, last name, account ID, and postal code ensures that transactions can be validated and monitored for fraud prevention and legal compliance.

Handling Declines
-----------------

If the debt repayment transaction is declined, you cannot resubmit the transaction in any of these situations:

* You have already retried the transaction three times, and each retry was declined.
* More than 14 calendar days have passed since the original decline.
* The issuer returns a pick up card response. This response is final---do not attempt the transaction again.

Next Steps
----------

After a successful authorization, you can process the capture.  
After a successful capture, you can process a standard follow-on refund.

Payer Authentication Processing {#payments-processing-pa-process-intro}
=======================================================================

This section shows you how to process authorizations with these payer authentication methods:

* **Mastercard**: Identity Check
* **Visa**: Visa Secure
  {#payments-processing-pa-process-intro_ul_dqz_xll_5xb}

Providing Payer Authentication Information for Authorization {#payments-processing-pa-eci}
==========================================================================================

The values that are returned from payer authentication must be provided when seeking authorization for the transaction. Authentication information that is not included when considering authorization may cause the transaction to be refused or downgraded and prevent the normal liability shift from occurring.  
The level of security in payer authentication is indicated by the two-digit e-commerce indicator (ECI) that is assigned to the transaction. These values have text equivalents that are assigned to the processingInformation.commerceIndicator field. The American Express, China UnionPay, Diners Club, Discover, and Visa card brands use `05`, `06`, and `07` digit values to express the authentication level for a `3-D Secure` transaction.

| ECI Value |                  Meaning                   | Visa                 | Diners Club  | Discover       | Amex           |
|:----------|--------------------------------------------|:---------------------|:-------------|:---------------|:---------------|
| `05`      | Authenticated                              | vbv                  | pb           | dipb           | aesk           |
| `06`      | Attempted authentication with a cryptogram | vbv_attempted        | pb_attempted | dipb_attempted | aesk_attempted |
| `07`      | Internet, not authenticated                | vbv_failure/internet | internet     | internet       | internet       |
[Text Values for ECI Values]

Mastercard and Maestro cards use 00, 01, 02, 06, and 07 digit values to indicate the authentication level of the transaction.

| ECI Value | Meaning                                                           | Mastercard/Maestro |
|:----------|:------------------------------------------------------------------|:-------------------|
| `00`      | Internet, not authenticated                                       | spa/internet       |
| `01`      | Attempted authentication                                          | spa                |
| `02`      | Authenticated                                                     | spa                |
| `06`      | Exemption from authentication or network token without 3‑D Secure | spa                |
| `07`      | Authenticated merchant-initiated transaction                      | spa                |
[Mastercard/Maestro Text Values for ECI Values]

The payer authentication response contains other information that needs to be passed on for successful authorization. Be sure to include these fields when requesting a separate authorization:

* consumerAuthenticationInformation.directoryServerTransactionId (Mastercard, Maestro)
* consumerAuthenticationInformation.eciRaw
* consumerAuthenticationInformation.paresStatus
* consumerAuthenticationInformation.paSpecificationVersion
* consumerAuthenticationInformation.ucafAuthenticationData (Mastercard/Maestro only)
* consumerAuthenticationInformation.ucafCollectionIndicator (Mastercard/Maestro only)
* consumerAuthenticationInformation.cavv
* consumerAuthenticationInformation.xid

Mastercard Identity Check {#payments-processing-pa-mc-intro}
============================================================

Mastercard Identity Check is the authentication service in the Mastercard card network that uses the 3-D Secure protocol in online transactions to authenticate customers at checkout.  
Mastercard Identity Check generates a unique, 32-character transaction token, called the account authentication value (AAV) each time a Mastercard Identity Check-enabled account holder makes an online purchase. The AAV binds the account holder to a specific transaction. Mastercard Identity Check transactions use the universal cardholder authentication field (UCAF) as a standard to collect and pass AAV data.  
Before implementing payer authentication for Mastercard Identity Check, contact customer support to have your account configured for this feature.

Fields Specific to the Mastercard Identity Check Use Case
---------------------------------------------------------

These API fields are required specifically for this use case.

consumerAuthenticationInformation. directory ServerTransactionId
:
Set this field to the transaction ID returned by Mastercard Identity Check during the authentication process.

consumerAuthenticationInformation. paSpecificationVersion
:
Set this field to the Mastercard Identity Check version returned by Mastercard Identity Check during the authentication process.

consumerAuthenticationInformation. ucafCollectionIndicator
:
Set to the last digit of the raw ECI value returned from authentication. For example, if ECI=02, this value should be 2.

processingInformation.commerceIndicator
:
Set this field to one of these values:

    * `spa`: Successful authentication (3-D Secure value of `02`).
    * `spa`: Authentication was attempted (3-D Secure value of `01`).
    * `spa` or `internet`: Authentication failed or was not attempted (3-D Secure value of `00`)

Visa Secure {#payments-processing-pa-visa-intro}
================================================

Visa Secure is the authentication service in the Visa card network that uses the 3-D Secure protocol to authenticate customers at checkout. This authentication is a two-step process. First, the cardholder is authenticated by 3-D Secure. Then, the transaction is authorized based on the 3-D Secure evaluation. This section explains how to authorize a card payment based on the 3-D Secure evaluation.  
Before implementing Visa Secure, contact customer support to have your account configured for this feature.

Fields Specific to the Visa Secure Use Case
-------------------------------------------

These API fields are required specifically for this use case.

processingInformation.commerceIndicator
:
Set the value to `vbv` for a successful authentication (3-D Secure value of `05`), `vbv_attempted` if authentication was attempted but did not succeed (3-D Secure value of `06`), or `vbv_failure` if authentication failed (3-D Secure value of `07`).

consumerAuthenticationInformation.cavv
:
Required when payer authentication is successful.
