  3. Click Processor Details.
  4. Enter your Merchant Number.

Your specified merchant number will be used for accounts in the collection group.

Note: Because of a limitation associated with SEPA Direct Debit, Aria does not recommend using authorize and capture in the same API call for payments made using that payment method. Instead, you should first make an authorize API call, confirm that the order has been moved into the authorized status, then attempt to make a capture API call). This will ensure a payment is authorized before the payment is captured and the account balance is reduced.
$0/$1 authorization

Allows you to perform $0/$1 authorizations to check the validity of a credit card before processing a payment

Note: If you are using Direct Post and you are running a $0 authorization, then Aria will skip any steps in your configuration that involve fraud scoring, fraud filtering, or 3D Secure authorization.
Contact your WorldPay representative to enable this feature.

  1. Find the account holder.
  2. Under Accounts > Account “XYZ”, click Payments & Credits.

(TICKET-15736)
