I am having trouble successfully integrating with the FirstData E4 gateway. I am using live mode with the ‘Payment page in test mode’ option selected. Payment Page ID and transaction key have been verified correct. Relay response is set in FirstData payment page setting. The error I receive is:
“We cannot proceed with payment because of technical difficulties.
Please try again later or contact customer support at {customer name}.”
The company name being displayed is accurate so I am clearly referencing correct payment page. What gives?

Hi, First Data needs a separate test account for testing. Could you register for a testing account here?

The issue persists if even when turning off the test option.

Hi there,
I think Lorenzo’s suggestion about a separate testing account doesn’t apply to First Data E4.
What gives?
It sounds like the relay response URL needs to be configured on the Receipt page settings of your account. Here’s a screenshot of my setup:
https://www.evernote.com/shard/s4/sh/7c1bf3d2-6d9a-4bf0-bcce-956d08352ea4/80ec0a0d025a8e3711a4df6917917065
Note that the Allow Relay Response box is checked, and the Relay Response URL is entered there. You will also need to be sure to match the http or https protocol. So if you have an SSL cert installed on your domain, which is recommended, you check the Force SSL box in you Event Espresso > First Data E4 settings. Then, please be sure to start the URL with https. The page ID entered there must match the page ID of the Event Espresso Thank You page.

Josh,
Thanks for the help here. Your instructions seems to get everything running in live mode. I say ‘seems’ because I haven’t processed a real transaction. I was hoping to process in Test Mode first but that’s where the issue still lies. The original error persists when I opt to use Test Mode.
“We cannot proceed with payment because of technical difficulties.
Please try again later or contact customer support at {customer name}.”
There is also a note about resetting the payment page so I tried that but to no avail the error persists.
Any other clues here?

Re:

Can you outline the steps you are taking to “opt” to use Test Mode?
