Store Settings

Store Settings: payments

The steps below describe how to configure billing address payment fields (including the postal code field) and a custom ID payment field for manual or optional data entry during Purchases, Preauthorizations, and independent Refunds that you initiate from your Moneris Go portal store's virtual terminal. (Billing address and postal code fields are used for address verification.) The custom ID field can be used to append an identifier of your own to virtual terminal transactions, reports, transaction receipts, and payment requests.

1. Log into the Moneris Go portal, and access the store for which you want to configure the payment fields (see Moneris Go portal - Logging into the Moneris Go portal).

2. On the sidebar menu (shown below), click on Settings > Store.
   

   Note: If the sidebar menu is not displayed on your screen, click on the "menu"icon in the top left corner of your screen, or expand your browser window to display the sidebar menu.

Address verification service (AVS) is a fraud-prevention feature that enables the card issuer to compare the street number, street name, and postal code data entered during a transaction with the corresponding data that appears on the cardholder's statement. It is strongly recommend that you include AVS details with all of your manually entered (keyed) transactions (MOTO/ecommerce). Doing so will ensure transactions are qualifying at the best possible interchange rate and may minimize costs to accept credit cards. If AVS data are not present, the transaction may be assessed a higher interchange fee. AVS is not supported for UnionPay cards
