| WARNING: This integration requires a minimum of Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5. |
Overview
The PAX First Pay integration allows the Govern system to process Credit Cards payments as a Point of Sale (POS). This integration will be compatible with EMV (Europay, MasterCard and Visa) solutions (credit cards using chips). The integration is intended for use with the Govern for Windows (VB6) Centralized Cash solution. This integration has been created to integrate with PAX First Data as a payment provider.
About the Integration
This integration was designed for use with the Govern VB6 client. Should the integration be made available for Governs .NET client, it will be as a wrapper application that will be called from the VB6 application. As illustrated below the PAX First Pay is the interface between Govern and the Bank. Users will need to obtain an account and access credentials to PAX First Pay in order to be able to configure Govern for transactions.
When a payment is processed through Governs’ CC solution, the payment by credit card option is made available. The following conditions need to be met:
- Client is a subscriber with PAX First Pay
- GNA has been configured with the payment option
- Payment types include credit cards
With all conditions satisfied, the payment can be processed through the interface.
NOTE: A validation has been added to Govern to accommodate unposted payments that:
Payments cannot be removed, users can only post and perform a refund. |
Functionality
In the Cash collection screen:
- When saving a payment, the Cash Collection Wizard is invoked and the Credit/Debit Card Payment screen is displayed.
- The application will send a Request string to the Terminal.
- After swiping the Credit or Debit card, the Terminal sends a Response String to the application notifying it as to whether the payment was successful, or has failed, along with additional relevant information.
- The information included in the Response string will be saved in the (Table: CC_CREDITCARD_LOG) for audit purposes.
| NOTE: A validation has been added in Govern so that any unposted payments, which have been settled with a credit card, and have a record in the log table, could only be posted and not deleted. If users need to remove the payment they can only post and perform a refund. |
Configuration
Refer to the document below for configuration information.
System Requirements
In addition to the standard Govern system requirements, this integration also requires the Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5 (minimum); as a result this integration will not run on Windows XP.
