How to get started (hosted tokenization)

The steps below describe what you need to do to integrate Moneris hosted tokenization into your ecommerce solution.

 

The Moneris hosted tokenization (HT) is a solution that you can integrate into your ecommerce site if you prefer not to handle credit card numbers directly but still want the ability to fully customize your checkout page appearance.

How it works

Moneris Gateway will, on your behalf, present text boxes on your checkout page. The cardholder then enters their credit card information into the text boxes. When the payment information is submitted through your checkout page, Moneris Gateway generates a temporary token representing the credit card number. This token is then used in an API call to process a financial transaction directly with Moneris. When your server receives a response to the financial transaction, it generates a receipt and allows the cardholder to continue with their online shopping experience.

 

To begin, please follow the How to get started steps below:


 

Ensure your Moneris Go portal user account is activated and you can log in and access your Moneris Go portal store (for setup instructions, see How to get started).

Note:      Your user account must be enabled with full administrative access and user-level permissions so that you can perform the setup and configuration steps as directed below. (Contact your store administrator if you need to have these permissions enabled.)

 

 

 Review and configure your ecommerce solution per the specifications in the Hosted Tokenization Merchant Integration Guide (this guide is available on the Moneris Developer Portal at https://developer.moneris.com).

Note:     If you need to view or copy your store's API token, see API token.   

 

 

Create the hosted tokenization profile (see Creating a Moneris hosted tokenization profile).
