Prerequisites

Before you start your implementation:

■	Contact your acquirer to find out whether you are allowed to process card-present transactions.

■	Find out from your acquirer and CyberSource Customer Support whether you must have a separate CyberSource merchant ID for your card-present transactions.

■	Contact CyberSource Customer Support to have your account configured to process card-present transactions.

■

Make sure that you are familiar with the CyberSource Simple Order API for processing e‑commerce and mail order/telephone order (MOTO) transactions as described in Credit Card Services User Guide. The request and reply fields for card-present transactions are very similar to the request and reply fields for e‑commerce and MOTO transactions.
