Purchase
 
The Purchase transaction is designed to immediately charge an amount on a card. To process a Purchase transaction, all fields must be filled in correctly. Mandatory fields are bolded.
 
Order ID: The order ID is a unique identifier to a transaction. If this field is left blank, a unique order ID number will be generated. If the user is submitting order IDs, they must ensure that the ID being used has never been used in the past. Order IDs may be up to 50 characters long, may contain letters and numbers, and may also contain the following special characters: - : . @
 
Customer ID: The customer ID is an additional piece of optional information which can be submitted with the transaction. The customer ID may be up to 30 characters long, may contain letters and numbers, and may also contain the following special characters: - : @ $ = /
 
Amount: This is the amount of the transaction. When specifying an amount, it is not necessary to enter the dollar sign or any other special characters. The amount MUST include full cent values even if the amount is a flat amount (ie: 1.00).
 
Credit Card Number: This is the credit card number which will be used for the transaction. The number must be entered without spaces or any other characters. Only valid credit card numbers may be entered into this field. The card number is not required if the card will be swiped via a PINPad or Mag Swipe Reader.
 
Expiry Date: This is the expiry date of the card which is being used for the transaction. This date must correspond with the date found on the card itself. The date is to be entered in the MM/YY format. The expiry date is not required if the card will be swiped via a PINPad or Mag Swipe Reader.
 
Card Validation Digits (CVD): This is an optional method of verification when performing a transaction. The Card Validation Digits are the digits found on the signature line on the back of the card (and in some cases on the front) which are not included in the card number itself.
 
ECI Indicator: This is the ecommerce indicator. Select the appropriate value from the drop down list according to the nature of the transaction being performed. The ECI indicator is not required if the card will be swiped via a PINPad or Mag Swipe Reader.
 
Address Verification (AVS)
This is an optional method of verification which compares the address entered with the mailing address of the card as it is found on the cardholder statement of the card being used.
 
Street Number: This value must be numeric. It represents the street number of the mailing address found on the cardholder statement for the card being used.
 
Street Name: This value must contain only letters. It represents the street name of the mailing address found on the cardholder statement for the card being used.
 
Zip/Postal Code: This value can be alphanumeric. It represents the zip or postal code of the mailing address found on the cardholder statement for the card being used.

The eFraud feature (CVD & AVS) needs to be added to the merchant account in order for these fields to be available for authentication. Please contact the Moneris Gateway Support Team at eselectplus@moneris.com to have the eFraud feature added to your profile. Please make sure to include your store ID or merchant number in any eFraud activation email requests.
 
Add Order Details
To add additional order details such as billing or shipping information, click on the 'Add Order Details' button. This will make several fields available where all additional information about the order can be entered. This information will also appear on the transaction receipt upon completion. All order detail fields may be alphanumeric and may contain special characters such as - : @ $ = /
 
The Moneris Gateway will not perform any calculations on the data sent in the Order Details fields. The total amount billed will be what is sent in the "Amount" field. It is the merchant's responsibility to have the "Amount" reflect the total of the line items, shipping and taxes.
 
Swipe Card - MSR
If a magnetic card reader is installed and properly configured, it may be used to submit the credit card number information. To use this feature, ensure that all information is properly filled out first. Once ready to process, click on 'Swipe Card-MSR'. Once prompted to swipe the credit card, pass the card through the card reader. A response will be generated once this is completed.
 
Swipe Card - PINPad
If a PINPad is installed and properly configured, it may be used to submit credit and debit card information. To use this feature, ensure that all information is properly filled out first. Once ready to process, click on 'Swipe Card-PINPad'. Once prompted to swipe the card, pass the card through the card reader and follow the instructions displayed on the PINPad. A response will be generated once this is completed.
 
To complete the transaction using manual entry without using the swipe card feature, click on the 'Process Transaction' button.
