Secure Acceptance Keys

The Cybersource Secure Acceptance API uses public key cryptography to securely exchange information over the Internet. Before you can send requests for Cybersource services using the Secure Acceptance, you must go to the Business Center and create a security key for your Cybersource merchant account.

Secure Acceptance keys expire after 2 years.

Security keys can be used to make any call, including payments. Treat your security keys as you would any secure password.

You must use separate keys for the test and production environments.
