About This Guide

Audience and Purpose

This guide is written for application developers who want to use the CyberSource Simple Order API to integrate credit card processing with card-present data into their order management system. The Credit Card Services User Guide provides the basic information about credit card processing with CyberSource. This supplement provides information about additional requirements and options for card-present transactions.

Implementing the CyberSource credit card services requires software development skills. You must write code that uses the API request and reply fields to integrate the credit card services into your existing order management system.

 

Information in this guide about Europay, Mastercard, and Visa (EMV) applies to credit card processing and PIN debit processing. All other information in this guide applies only to credit card processing. PIN debit processing is available only on FDC Nashville Global.
