Card authorization requirements

To use card authorization in iMIS, a separate Credit Card Authorization license key is required. However, a license key is not required if you are using e-Series only. You also need a high-speed Internet connection to handle a high volume of transactions.

To use card authorization, iMIS users must set up an account with a card authorization gateway. iMIS users must use either VeriSign or QSI as their authorization gateway for credit cards. QSI is the authorization gateway for iMIS users in Australia who process credit card transactions.

European debit card transactions in iMIS cannot be processed with the VeriSign or QSI gateways. Instead, your Authorized iMIS Solution Provider (AiSP) must implement a custom gateway interface.

iMIS ships with the card authorization and Service Central modules. To use card authorization, your association must set up a merchant account at the association's bank or at another financial institution, register with the card authorization gateway service, and install additional gateway software as required. However, before you take any of these steps, you should understand what card authorization is and how it works.
