PAYMENT PROCESSING
Legacy Credit Card Payment Processing Disabled
In order to provide the highest level of security and further protect your interests and potential liability, ChannelOnline will now ONLY be workingwith payment gateway providers that offer hosted pages for processing credit cards.
To active a Credit Card payment gateway that supports the hosted page method you must go to the Payment Options page, select the correct payment gateway
from the Hosted Payment Processors list and select the account setup link. On the setup page for the processor you will be prompted to enter the credentials
needed for activation.
Hosted Order pages will be displayed in ChannelOnline after a user selects Credit Card as the method of payment. Hosted pages vary by gateway provider
based on the data that they want to collect. See the screenshot for a sample of a hosted order page.
For more information on these payment gateways please go to the Secure Credit Card Processing page or contact Customer Support (cs-col-support@1worldsync.com) with questions.
