TSYS Cayan Configuration

The following settings are completed by support personnel once your account has been set up and the card Interface has been set to "TSYS Cayan" from the Setup and Software tab of the Parameters form (Main Menu, Maintenance, Database, and Parameters). In addition to setting the card interface to "TSYS Cayan," the parameters for "Credit Card S/W" and "Debit Card S/W" need to be checked. Card types on the "Software" tab and Point of Sale, Names tabs must also be set (and match each other). Features described in this section are currently only available with release 12 (expected release date of January 2017) and later.

The "TSYS Cayan Settings" dialog is not accessible by the end user, but are provided for reference. The URLs listed for web services will need to be permitted through any firewall or security software your company may operate. URLs are subject to change at any time. Usually, these changes can and will be made remotely by our personnel for you; however, changes might also necessitate security changes on your own network which would be your company's responsibility. In these cases, we will attempt to notify companies of the change in advance through either Email communication and/or other means.

Level 2 & Level 3 Processing Supported

Level 2 & Level 3 processing refers to additional information about the transaction which may be optionally sent to the processor. This information, if transmitted, may result in a reduction in transaction fees. Please contact your processor if you have questions. Level 2 data includes the tax amount (if non-zero), customer's PO number (if any), and customer code (the sequence portion of the invoice document number). If no customer PO is associated with the transaction, the document's sequence portion (last 6-characters) is sent with the request.

Level 3 data includes the Commodity Code, Description, UPC, Unit of Measure, Unit Cost, Discount Amount, Total Amount, Tax Amount, Extended Amount, Debit/Credit, and Net Gross in addition to level 2 data.

Credentials

The Merchant Name, Site ID, and Merchant Key will vary for each branch (store) location with an account.

URLs

Staging is the URL of the web service responsible for authenticating and preparing transactions. The same URL is used for both live and test implementations. This involves retrieving the unique transport key for the transaction from the service after authenticating.

https://transport.merchantware.net/v4/transportService.asmx?op=CreateTransaction

The Report URL is used for retrieving the results of a transaction after initiating the transaction via the card device. Communication with the card device (CED) occurs between the staging and reporting steps.

https://genius.merchantware.net/v1/Reporting.asmx

The Credit URL is used for post-sale functions such as voids and refunds for credit/debit card payments where the transaction's result token is being used. These operations don't require the original card be present and the card device is not used.

https://ps1.merchantware.net/Merchantware/ws/RetailTransaction/v45/Credit.asmx

The Gift Card URL is similar to the "Credit URL" but is used for voids and refunds for gift cards only. Transactions using this URL don't require the original card and the card device is not used.

https://ps1.merchantware.net/Merchantware/ws/ExtensionServices/v4/Giftcard.asmx

The "TransPort.Web URL" is used for web portal processing independent of a card device and may not be supported for all installations.

https://transport.merchantware.net/v4/TransportWeb.aspx

Card Types

Card types should be enabled for the card interface and Point of Sale selection. Should the customer need to manually process card transactions independently from the device, at least one additional selection ("other," for example) should be enabled in the Point of Sale, Names tab of the Parameters form so that the selection differ.

Certificates

The software will automatically install a TSYS Cayan security certificate in the user's personal certificate store when TSYS Cayan is enabled. This is necessary for communication between the card device and user (via the software application). For customers who will be participating in True Value Quick Credit Card applications, the certificate may also need to be installed in the computer's Trusted Root Certificate Store. For remote connections (Remote Desktop or App), the certificate would reside on the computer (server) hosting the connection.

Device

Payment Selection Timeout

This sets the period of time, in seconds, that the device will wait for customer interaction before canceling.

True Value Quick Credit

If your company is a True Value member who will be processing Quick Credit Card Applications, a TSYS Cayan certificate is required for any application servers or clients that will process applications. This will be installed automatically if needed; however, it can be manually added by following the instructions at the following link:

https://TSYS Cayan.com/developers/knowledge-base/genius-TSYS Cayan-root-certificate-installation

For our cloud hosted customers, you don't have to install the certificate as your application connections actually are running on the server, not locally.

Quick Credit Applications are processed by Alliance Data. For test or production testing, you must contact Alliance Data with the WAN (Wide Area Network) address being used so that they can "white list" the address to allow communication. There are two (2) production application servers: Dallas, TX and Columbus, OH. A test server is also provided.

Additional True Value Quick Credit Application settings can be found on the Setup, EDI, and True Value Rewards tab (this tab is only accessible by support personnel).

Updates to Cayan Device Endpoints Keep You in Sync

As Global Payments Integrated continues to update the MerchantWare Credit and Gift Card APIs, we will continue to help you update your Cayan system settings to stay in sync. This helps you stay competitive with other businesses and improves security of your Cayan-based transactions. The release updates your end points and URL settings for your installed Cayan Point of Sale equipment. This update does not require changes to your device or station settings.

We have updated the business logic used to process your transactions to take advantage of the updated tokenized Card on File features. This update provides better encryption for your customer’s credit card data so that hackers cannot decode it.

As before, when an account customer uses a credit card to pay for a transaction, the application prompts Cashiers to add the card token to the customer’s account:

  • If the customer responds Yes, the application encrypts their card information to a secure token to make the card data available for future account or Point of Sale payments.

  • If the customer responds No, the application processes the current transaction only and does not encrypt the card data, even if the customer chose to save it before.

We tested the Gift Card API to ensure that you can still process stored value gift card activations and updates and display current gift card balances on demand.

We have set up your MerchantWare 4.6 settings for you as part of your upgrade process. Administrative users can see the new settings in the system parameters. These settings allow you to use Card On File-saved data for Sales, Orders, Direct Shipments, Account Payments, and Payouts.

5. Choose Accept to close the box.

Messaging Improved when Cayan Merchant Key Errors Occur

B-105518 – As we work with our Cayan partners to improve your payment processing experience, we have added new message that displays when there is a problem with the Cayan Merchant Key setting.

  • During the Payment process, the message is: Failed! Staging – Invalid login credentials
