Merchant Credentials
It has to be noted that this section is visible ONLY after Bluesnap has approved the new merchant account created. Therefore, the account, in which this section is available, are the ones labeled as on the Bluesnap section (see the image example below) |
The reason behind that is because on this section are provided the account credentials such as:
The Merchant ID is the one assigned by the merchant and the one included in the IPN
The Username is a necessary requirement to create a new merchant account, for this reason, if the user doesn’t provide it while filling the form, the merchant itself will assign it.
The Password is a necessary requirement to create a new merchant account, for this reason, if the user doesn’t provide it while filling the form, the merchant itself will assign it.
The Data Protection Key is used to maintain the security of the checkout page if you're encrypting parameters or using Virtual Terminal/Payment Link.
Kindly note that the Merchant ID, Username, and Password are crucial because they are the details that users will include on the MID and PRN code, within the Bluesnap provider, under the Providers section, in order to effectively enable the payment provider MIDs when added into a campaign. |
noteThe Merchant ID corresponds to the Store ID in the Payments>Providers>Bluesnap>MIDs
