Setup Ucommerce to Include Authorize.Net as a Payment Method

Ucommerce comes with built-in support for Authorize.Net payments. This guide will walk you through getting Ucommerce to work with Authorize for payment processing.

Capabilities

Authorize.Net is one of the payment providers which support the Acquire, Cancel, and Refund functionality. You can see how to enable this here.

Settings in Ucommerce

If you haven't completed the steps from the General Setup of Payment Methods in Ucommerce document you need to do that before you move on.

When the payment method is created and saved as described in here. The back-end displays the different settings you can set for Authorize.NET.

Settings in Your Back-end Office at Authorize.NET

You log in using the “Merchant Log In” page.

First you need to log in to your back-end office at http://Authorize.net.

We need to configure a signature key used for secure communication between your server and Authorize.NET. This is also the section where you would collect the Api Login Id

Click on “API Credentials & Keys” and create a new signature key.
