Payment Settings for Event Espresso 3

Event Espresso version 3 Documentation for the Payment Settings

The Payment Settings options page has all the settings for every payment gateway that Event Espresso supports.

Payment gateways are split into two broad categories: onsite and offsite. Onsite gateways allow users to pay with their credit card without leaving your website. Offsite gateways, send the user to the payment gateway site to complete the transaction.

You will at first be faced with a lots of grey bars, with the payment gateway names on them. Clicking one will open it to show a green activation button. Click that and the gateway will become active and you will then need to add the appropriate details for the gateway.

The list below links to each payment gateways documentation where you can find set up instructions, troubleshooting and usage tips.

You can either try amending your PHP.INI file or contacting your host to see and/or enable the “allow_url_fopen” option. You can also check if this is enabled or not by using a plugin such as WordPress phpinfo().

Luottokunta MAC Security Check

Using MAC calculation (MAC = Message Authentication Code) improves the security of the card payments in online store. Use of the MAC calculation is mandatory and the merchant must implement the MAC calculation in two phases in the HTML form interface. If the merchant does not use MAC calculation, the merchant will be responsible for any security risks and damages experienced by Luottokunta.

Luottokunta sends the merchant one secret key for the MAC calculation, enclosed in the service ID codes letter for Luottokunta ePayment Service, and this key is used for actual MAC calculation.

To Activate the Mac Security Check:

Log in to Transaction management section of the web interface of Luottokunta ePayment Service, using a merchant admin user or admin user ID.
Go to the page “Merchant settings”.
Enable the options “Add MAC check to HTML form” and “Add MAC check to Success_Url” (by marking them as checked).
Save your changes by clicking the button “Update”
Lastly, from within Event Espresso’s payments page, set “Perform MAC security Check” to “Yes” and click “Update Luottokunta Settings”

Why is there a Canadian and US PSiGate Store Key?

If you will be accepting payments only in USD, you only need to enter a “US PSiGate Store Key”. Conversely, if you are only accepting payments in CAD, you need only enter a “Canadian PsiGate Store Key”.

If, however, some events will be accepting US dollars and others will be accepting Canadian dollars, you will need 2 PSiGate accounts: one accepting CAD and the other for USD. Enter the store keys for each into Event Espresso in the appropriate fields (“Canadian PSiGate Store Key” and “US PSiGate Store Key”).

Then, select a default currency. You may then specify an event as using the other currency by adding an ‘Event Meta’ called ‘event_currency’, and give it a value of either ‘USD’ or ‘CAD’.

When customers go to pay for an event, if the currency is in USD, your US Store Key will be used. If the currency for the event is CAD, the Canadian Store Key will be used.

  • ImportantThis should only be used when you have one payment gateway, which also must be an offsite gateway like PayPal. It is also highly recommended that you turn off the payment return option to avoid the user being looped back to the gateway if the payment fails.
  • Auto settle transactions: Used to signify whether or not you wish the transaction to be captured in the next batch or not. If set to “Y” and assuming the transaction is authorised then it will automatically be settled in the next batch. If set to “N” then the merchant must use the realcontrol application to manually settle the transaction. This option can be used if a merchant wishes to delay the payment until after the goods have been shipped. Transactions can be settled for up to 115% of the original amount.
  • Current Button Image: A visual representation of the current button.

In addition to adding the Merchant ID and Shared secret, you will need to contact Realex support and give them a response URL (which is the page on your site with the [ESPRESSO_TXN_PAGE] shortcode. By default, it’s the page set as the notify URL in the Event Espresso>General Settings.

I recommend this documentation for additional info, there is a check-list on page 5 that may help you get up and running:
