How do I setup a Credit Card processor?

The Setting Up Credit Card Processor video shows how to set up credit card processor information in CircuiTree so that it can run credit cards for tuition and merchandise payments. Please note that you must set up an account with your preferred credit card processor before you use this section. CircuiTree currently supports a number of different gateways, so you must make sure you have an account with at least one of those gateways independently of your CircuiTree relationship.

Quick Tip –  Confirm that all 4 credit card types (Visa, MC, Discover, AmEx) are being setup through your processor contract.  If not, you will need to unselect that card’s check box so it will not appear as a payment option. Otherwise, an error message will display every time someone tries to pay with that kind of card.
