There are two types of CyberSource merchant accounts. For more information on each account type, contact your CyberSource sales representative.
nCyberSource settlement services account—this merchant account has no direct contract with a payment provider partner. The CyberSource Financial Settlement Partner (FSP) collects funds on your behalf and settles them to your merchant account.
|
CyberSource requests the export compliance service for every transaction using the CyberSource settlement services account. The export compliance service compares customer information to export control lists maintained by government agencies. If a customer’s name appears on any government list, the transaction is declined. |
To facilitate compliance checks for CyberSource settlement services accounts, you must send the following fields in your sale service requests:
lbillTo_firstName
lbillTo_lastName
lbillTo_street1
lbillTo_city
lbillTo_country
If you do not send these fields, you might not receive errors in the CyberSource test environment but you will receive errors in the production environment.
nProcessor direct contract account—this merchant account must use the payment provider selected by CyberSource. If you have existing direct contracts, you must inform your sales representative.
