SCMP API and Simple Order API
IMPORTANT
If you use the SCMP API or Simple Order API to create and manage
subscriptions, you must migrate to the Recurring Billing service that uses the REST
API.
Follow these steps to prepare for the migration:
- Exchange your current SCMP API or SOAP API integration with Payments REST API to perform the transaction that initializes the subscription agreement and creates a validated token.
- Integrate to the new Recurring Billing service that uses the REST API.
- Become familiar with the new Recurring Billing service user interface in theBusiness Center.
- ContactCybersourceclient services to start the migration.
You can still use the SCMP API or Simple Order API, but only to perform the transaction that
initializes the subscription agreement and creates a validated token. It replaces step 1 in
the list above.
To make this possible, you need to change the
recurring_frequency
field in the request to
on-demand. Additionally, remove any other subscription‑related fields (recurring_*
) from the
request.After completing this initial transaction, you can proceed to create the subscription using
the REST API in the upgraded Recurring Billing system.
IMPORTANT
If you choose to stay with Simple Order API, make sure your keys are up
to date.
