EZ Payment Gateway FAQ's

Why am I getting an Invalid operation_type message?

You are not passing 'auth' as the operation_type or you may be trying to use the GET method instead of the POST method.

What does the POST Data that you send to GoEmerchant.com look like?

 

merchant=mystorename&password=123test&operation_type=auth&orderid=123456
&total=1.00&cardname=Visa&cardnum1=4111&cardnum2=1111&cardnum3=1111
&cardnum4=1111&cardexpm=01&cardexpy=02&nameoncard=John Doe
&cardstreet=123 Any Street&cardcity=Any City&cardstate=NJ
&cardzip=08000&cardcountry=US

 

What will GoEmerchant.com return back to me for both the process.aspx and direct.aspx?

GoEmerchant's script will use the GET method to return the following information to the URL that it was given:

 

Key Value
OrderID echoed back from the server that was provided in the secure post
total total amount authed
Status will return 1 if success, 0 if failed
approval_code approval code returned by bank
authresponse authorization response returned by bank
Cardname type of credit card
NameonCard name of cardholder
Cardstreet street of cardholder
Cardcity city of cardholder
Cardstate state of cardholder (two letter state abbreviations)
Cardzip zip code of cardholder
Cardcountry country of cardholder (two letter country abbreviations)
email email address of customer (optional)
