Additional Notes

This gateway supports Level 2 and Level 3 transaction processing via Spreedly. If you are interested in Level 2 or Level 3 transaction support, please contact the gateway to confirm that your account is enabled for these processing types. Please let us know if there are any specific parameters you would like to have enabled.

The domain gateway field is optional and only required if your provided domain is not https://fts.cardconnect.com. If specifying a domain, the path format must match https://fts.cardconnect.com:443/cardconnect/rest/, where specifying the port is optional.

Adding a CardConnect gateway

To add a CardConnect gateway you need to supply your CardConnect API username, password, and merchant ID. The domain gateway field is optional and only required if your provided domain is not https://fts.cardconnect.com. If the domain assigned to you does not resolve to “fts.cardconnect.com”, please contact Support so that your assigned domain can be allowed.

Stored credentials

For CardConnect gateway, sending stored credential fields can be done using Spreedly’s first class support. Sending stored credential data is simple. For any Authorize, Purchase, or Verify request, you need to include these fields which tell Spreedly a little bit more about the nature of the transaction:

  • stored_credential_initiator
  • stored_credential_reason_type

Learn more about how Spreedly enables seamless use of stored credentials by reviewing our Stored Credentials Guide.

Third-party 3D Secure 2 Auth Data

Spreedly will automatically handle the field mapping for sending 3DS2 authentication data to CardConnect. For more information about how to use this feature, see the 3DS2 Global Guide. Spreedly fields map to the relevant CardConnect fields as described in the following table. Please see CardConnect documentation for detailed descriptions of each of these fields

Spreedly Field CardConnect Field
ecommerce_indicator secureflag
authentication_value securevalue
directory_server_transaction_id securedstid

Gateway specific fields

When interacting with a CardConnect gateway, there are many gateway specific fields you can specify when making a call.

Please refer to using a payment method for more information on how to send GSFs

The user_field must be supplied either as a JSON array of objects (as shown in the example above) or a simple JSON object: {"field_1": "data", "field_2": "more data"}.

If you would like to request any gateway_specific_fields or gateway_specific_response_fields, please contact Support with your request and the gateway documentation for the fields of interest.

Gateway specific response fields

A response from CardConnect gateway may contain a batch_id field which you can find in the gateway_specific_response_fields. It may also contain a respproc field, which contains a code corresponding to the platform and processor for the transaction. For specific details on this value, please refer to CardConnect’s documentation on gateway response codes.

An example transaction containing both fields would have something like this:

<transaction>
  <token>LgpTNGjsWQs9DwdxcbreUVz0R8p</token>
  <transaction_type>Purchase</transaction_type>
  <gateway_specific_response_fields>
     <card_connect>
       <batch_id>abc123</batch_id>
       <respproc>PPS</respproc>
       <auth_code>PPS009</auth_code>
     </card_connect>
  </gateway_specific_response_fields>
</transaction>
