Learn how to connect a credit card payment processor to BidClips
Once you have successfully configured your payment processing account for your shop(s), you will be able to accept payments in BidClips. Currently, all payments applied to jobs by your customers and/or shop users in the BidClips platform are processed using either the Intellipay or Authorize.net payment processors.
In order to process payments in BidClips, you will need to add your payment processing account credentials (transaction key and API login ID values) in your Shop Configuration settings
Locating your payment gateway credentials
If you are a Glass Doctor provider, you are likely an existing Authorize.net customer and your transaction key and API login ID values can be located in your Mainstreet POS system.
If you are not a Glass Doctor provider, but are already an Authorize.net user, you will need to log in to Authorize.net and retrieve your transaction key and API login ID values.
Creating an Authorize.net account
If you do not have an Authorize.net account, you will have to create one.
Applying your payment credentials in BidClips
Once you have identified your Transaction Key and API login ID values you will need to apply them in the 'Payments' section of your shop settings. Note: Payment Processing Account settings are done at the shop level. Therefore, if you have more than one shop; you will have to repeat this for each of your shops.
You will start this process by clicking on the 'Shop(s)' link in the 'Configure' section of the Provider Portal navigation bar that is located on the left side of the screen.
Next, you will click on the 'shop information' (
) icon in the 'Shop Information' page and will be redirected to the 'Add/Edit Shop Information' page:
