How do I Add Converge to my Shift4Shop Store?

The following steps will help you add the Converge Payment Gateway to your Shift4Shop store.

1. Log into your Shift4Shop Online Store Manager.

2. Using the left navigation menu, go to Settings > Payment.

3. In the "Payment Methods" section, click on Select Payment Methods.

4. Next, click on +Add New located on the top right of the page.

5. Specify your payment gateway parameters, such as Country/State, Min/Max Order amount, and Customer Group that will be applicable to your Converge payment gateway.

6. While here, click on the "Payment Method" drop-down menu and select Converge from the drop-down list (The list is alphabetized for your convenience).

7. Once you're ready, click +Add.

After the payment method is created, it will be added to the page under the "Additional Gateways" section. You can now click on the Settings link for the payment method to enter your account credentials with Converge. (This will be information you receive from the Converge for your account.)

Your available settings are the following:

• Caption
  This will be the label that will display for this payment method on your store's checkout pages. The default value is simply "Online Credit Card"

• User ID (UID)
  Enter the username for your Converge User ID. This is a combination of letters and numbers supplied to you by Converge Customer Activation & Training.

• PIN
  Click on the "Change" link to enter your Converge account's PIN value

• Account ID (AID)
  Enter your Converge account's ID information.

• Authorize Only (OPTIONAL)
  Use this check box if you would like for transactions to only authorize the card for the order amount at the time of purchase but not collect the funds until you process the order. Click here for more information.

While configuring your base settings, you will also see a button labeled "Advanced Settings" under the "Merchant ID" field. This button will allow you to further edit and configure the parameters you specified during Step 5 above.
