SG - Using Authorize.net with Subscription Genius
There are 2 kinds of accounts one can use for the payment gateway, Authorize.net. It is important to choose the correct designation (Authorize.net or Authorize.net w/ CIM) when establishing your payment gateway.
Option 1: Authorize.net w/ CIM
This option is to be used for any account that wishes to process automatically renewing bundles. When setting up your API credentials in Subscription Genius, ensure that you have Authorize.net W/ CIM selected. ONLY select this if you are in fact using a CIM level account. Choosing Authorize.net w/ CIM when having only a regular Authorize.net account will result in errors and failed credit card processing. You can upgrade to a CIM account within your Authorize.net online login page, or by contacting their customer service department.
Option 2: Standard Authorize.net
This option can be used If you are not using automatically renewing bundles.
For either account option, you will need to extract your API and Transaction Key from Authorize.net. Please note that if you refresh or change this API or Transaction key AFTER placing it within Subscription Genius, you will need to update the credentials within your SG account. These credentials are found within your personal online Authorize.net login.
*Please use the DEFAULT Authorize.net settings. Changing requirements for purchases (like requiring company name for example) will disrupt your payment gateway.
