Requirements for your web site

At the very minimum, your web site must do the following in order to be linked properly with the EZ Payment Gateway Secure transaction gateway:
  • Your web site must calculate a total amount that is to be authorized by the EZ Payment Gateway system. The EZ Payment Gateway code samples below DO NOT demonstrate how to calculate totals; calculating a total amount is not part of the EZ Payment Gateway system, and usually requires script programming in your web site.
  • Your web site must pass at least the merchant name (assigned by Merchant Services), the unique order ID, associated with the shopping cart, the total amount, a URL to return transaction information to the EZ Payment Gateway.
  • Any other fields, such as Invoice, Customer ID, Name, Address, etc. MUST be stored in a data file on your system that can be retrieved via the OrderID field that will be passed back to your system.

Edit

Allowed fields

You must pass the following fields to the EZ Payment Gateway system. To work properly, the fields must be named exactly (case sensitive) as they are named here:

Key Value

Example minimum requirements

The following HTML code snippet represents the bare minimum requirements: Note - You must have generated a unique OrderID, Calculated your total, and have a script/URL to process the variables that will be returned to your server.) The result of the HTML code snippet on a web site is a simple button that is programmed to pass a total dollar amount to the EZ Payment Gateway secure payment form.

<form method="POST" action="https://secure.goemerchant.com/secure/gateway/direct.aspx">
<input type="hidden" name="Merchant" value="Merchant Name assigned by Merchant Services">
<input type="hidden" name="OrderID" value="Unique OrderID value">

<input type="hidden" name="URL" value="http://Your Web Site Address/script name to receive variables">

Example -- http://www.mystore.com/CGI-bin/receipt.aspx"
(Note - You may call your script anything you please.  The name receipt is used for example only!)
