Description

An overview, requirements and steps for setting up and processing payments through Bank of America using the CyberSource Extension

What's in this article?

Spreedly is a payment orchestration platform that allows businesses to accept payments without directly handling sensitive cardholder data. It securely vaults payment information, helping to minimize PCI compliance scope. 

Requirements

In addition to a Small Business Merchant Services account with Bank of America, the following is required: 

  • A live website
  • A live account with Spreedly

NOTE:
Any existing tokens for recurring payments would need to be re-established after activation with Bank of America.

Configure payment settings

IMPORTANT!
All prerequisite steps must be completed prior to configuring payment settings. For detailed prerequisite information or assistance, please contact Spreedly. When engaging with Spreedly Support, be sure to specify that you are using the CyberSource Extension (Visa Acceptance Solutions) to process payments.

Set up your payment settings in Spreedly for a live (production) environment or a test (sandbox) environment.
