checklist
Please ensure the following is configured for your TSYS VAR to allow for successful boarding on the
Worldnet gateway:
The merchant account must be configured on TSYS for Terminal Capture, NOT Host Capture
The Profile must be activated at TSYS
The VAR sheet must include a Reimbursement Attribute. Usually, this is ‘Z’ but it can differ depending on the account.
...
An Authentication Code must be provided. The Authentication Code MUST BE 10 CHARACTERS and any LETTERS MUST BE CAPITALIZED. This is usually found in the comments section.
...
Note that the Authentication Code must be matched for an IDTech VP3300 credit card reader.
The Industry must be selected.
...
...
IMPORTANT: The VAR will need to be a custom Stage build that is
...
set up for Terminal Capture and has an Authentication Code set. Usually, VARs with an Authentication Code are for Host Capture and to avoid issues you will need to ensure the custom VAR is set up for Terminal Capture.
Troubleshooting Tips
In some cases when you attempt to activate the TSYS account you will receive a “terminal not
...
activated” response. For this scenario, follow the below steps to ensure everything is correctly set up.
Double-check that details from the VAR match what has been entered into the gateway. Things like the MCC, Zip Code, and everything on the bank settings page in the processing terminal need to match exactly.
If everything is matching, contact the ISO and double-check that the account is set up for Terminal Capture.
If Terminal Capture is the confirmed setup for the account, ask the ISO if they can reset the authentication code to something different. Once the new authentication code is set, confirm the profile has been activated
...
update the details in the gateway, and attempt to activate it again.
If you are still unable to activate the account, double-check that the reimbursement attribute has been properly set up on the account.
The processor must ensure they are setting up the VAR sheet for “Stage-Only” not “Deja Vu”.
