Where do I start?
If you plan to enter in customer
orders manually, click on the 'Virtual Terminal' link located
under the 'Trans. Options' heading.
To process a credit card transaction using the Virtual Terminal,
complete the form with the customer information and click on the
'Submit Sales Transaction' button.
To integrate your website into the EPSSecurenet system you need
to decide which method you will use:
SecureCart - This is for novice users who do not already have a
shopping cart system in use or plan on creating one.
SecureGate - This is for users who have a shopping cart system
and do NOT have a SSL Certificate to secure a payment form.
SecureDirect - This is for users who have a shopping cart
system, with a SSL Certificate and wish to only process the
transaction with EPSSecurenet and not use the payment pages
within the EPSSecurenet System.

SecureGate example code from the FAQ/Docs area.
Use the example code as a template for the code that is required
to be posted to the EPSSecurenet System.
1) Within your shopping cart system, locate the final page
before the customer 'Checks Out'.
On this page insert the code to connect your site to the
EPSSecurenet Payment Page. This information must be POSTed to
the EPSSecurenet system in order for it to work.
2) The EPSSecurenet system requires the following information to
be posted:

which method you are using. (SecureGate)

order.
The form needs to post to : https://www.epssecurenet.com/egate/epayform.php
3) EPSSecurenet also allows for these optional fields to be
used:

transaction.

number.
- opt_field1 thru opt_field10 : These are extra data fields that
can used for any information , this information is NOT stored by
the EPSSecurenet System.

a test transaction to make sure your data is appearing in the
proper places.
5) Log into the EPSSecurenet Merchant Administration area , and
congiure the payment gateway to fit your website and business
needs.
