Magnesafe Magstripe Reader Setup

Go Back to List of FAQs  Previous  Next

To use TSYS / Cayan / Merchant Warehouse credit card processing integrated into Jewelry Shopkeeper, first verify

that you have your credentials from your Cayan Rep.

 

Merchant Name:        Your store name  - Exactly as provided by the processor along with your Site ID (which may be different than your DBA)

Site ID:                        Approximately 8 digits and letters

Key:                        Five groups of five letters and numbers separated by a dash

 

...

 

Note that there is a second set of credentials that enables access to reporting and to the TSYS / Cayan / Merchant Warehouse

Payment Gateway website. For that you need:

 

Username    Usually contains a part of your store name and digits

Password

ID Number: Usually a four digit number

 

Note that these last three enable you to verify payments online at

 

https://tsys.accessaccountdetails.com/sign-in/

 

(until the processor changes the address of their login screen, which they do occasionally.)

 

You can also process or void or report payments there independently of Jewelry Shopkeeper

 

...

 

The below instructions assume you have a MagTek Magnesafe encrypted credit card reader. This must come from

TSYS / Cayan / Merchant Warehouse because the encryption must be set by them.

 

The reader should have a padlock icon on it and if you swipe a credit card while in a word processor

or email program, you should see mostly gobbledygook.

 

If you have a different reader, please let us know

Remember, before you try to process a payment via Jewelry Shopkeeper, process a test payment via the TSYS / Cayan / Merchant Warehouse Payment Gateway.

 

E.g. use your own card for $0.75 and directly after you can Void that, also from the Payment Gateway web page https://ps1.merchantware.net

or from https://portal.merchantware.net
