FoxyCart Activation and Configuration

FoxyCart is an e-commerce platform that adds a hosted shopping cart and payment page checkout to websites built with WordPress, Wix, Squarespace, Weebly, Zoho and other website builder tools, as well as popular programming frameworks for custom site builds.

FoxyCart's integration with the Bank of America Gateway leverages the bank's Card Not Present Integration Toolkit integration method to help meet the Self-Assessment Questionnaire A (SAQ A) Payment Card Industry (PCI) compliance level.

Requirements

A Merchant Services account with Bank of America, a live website, and FoxyCart v. 2.0 are required to activate the solution.

Configure payment settings

Set up your payment settings in FoxyCart. You can set them up for the live environment or for testing in a test environment first. 

IMPORTANT!
If you choose to do testing in the test environment, you will need to configure the payment settings a second time, when you are ready to switch to the live environment.

To generate security keys and configure payment settings

1. Generate security keys for the live environment or test environment.

      Table of Bank of America Extension settings and description of each setting

      Setting	Description
      Authorize only (no capture)	Turn this toggle on to capture an authorization-only when an order is placed. If selected, when you are ready to capture the funds, such as when you ship the order, you will need to manually capture the transaction in your Merchant Services account in online banking.
      Card verification	Select a card verification mode. • On: RECOMMENDED. Select this option to automatically verify a zero dollar amount transaction when a payment method is required (such as future subscriptions). Greater than zero dollar amount transactions will be authorized, or authorized and captured, at the full amount.  • Off: Not Recommended. This option will disable payment method verification.

   9. Click Save. 

3. Run a test transaction using test credit card numbers. 

   IMPORTANT! To test transactions using the Bank of America Gateway, without downtime to your live web store using another payment gateway, you can set up a test version of your FoxyCart web store.
