To set up a new Shared Secret or to change an existing one, you need to:
The Shared Secret is used to validate the details of any incoming transactions to the system. If it is changed then ALL websites/devices using the old Shared Secret for this Terminal ID will also have to be updated with the new one, or they will be unable to transact.
Adding a new user is very simple and quick in the Selfcare and it takes only a few following steps:
When you create a new user, the log-in details are automatically emailed to them directly from the system. Two separate mails are sent (for security reasons) containing full instructions about how to set their initial password and log in.
A Terminal ID (or TID) for your account can be found at the top-left corner of the Selfcare, just underneath the Worldnet Payments logo.
If there is more than one terminal assigned to your account, this will be a drop-down list with all your active terminals and their currencies. You can switch between your terminals using this menu, and the currently active terminal will be highlighted.
This is the example of a list with active Terminal IDs:
Refunding a transaction is very simple in the Selfcare. It only takes the following steps:
For safety reasons, there is an additional approval box and you need to confirm that you wish to proceed with the refund. Please note that once the refund is confirmed, it cannot be reversed. However, you still will be able to void it, if necessary.
Also note that the system keeps track of all refunds for a transaction and the sum total cannot exceed the max refund percentage of the original transaction value. If the operator doesn't realise that they have already refunded the transaction, then this can lead to an error message that says “Invalid Refund Amount. Your refund amount must be a number and not greater than…”
Processing sales transactions using Virtual Terminal is very simple and takes only a couple of seconds. To process any transaction you need to:
Please note that:
Once the transaction has been processed, your receipt will be displayed. This can be printed (by clicking on “Print” at the bottom of the Receipt), if necessary.
The transaction can be viewed in the Open Batch now.
If you do not remember your password or would like to change it, you need to use “Forgot Password” option in the main Login screen. When you click on this, a new form will be displayed and you need to enter:
If all details match your user account details, an email will be sent to your registered email address. This email contains a link that you need to follow to reset your password.
Please note:
A Void is the cancellation of a previous sale that has not yet been settled/batched. A void can only be performed on transactions in the Open Batch. The original sale transaction is effectively removed from the batch of transactions to be settled, but will still appear with a status of “Void”. Once a transaction has been voided this action cannot be undone.
Note: Worldnet Payments do not handle any actual funds and have no control over this process. Please contact your merchant bank for any further information.
