Overview

CyberSource Secure Acceptance – Silent Order Post (SA SOP) is a credit card payment gateway that allows full customization of checkout, receipt and error pages, yet simplifies PCI compliance by posting credit card data directly to secure CyberSource servers. You can even accept eChecks in versions 2.0+.

This gateway uses the new Secure Acceptance Protocol for CyberSource to ensure that it’s updated and fully compliant with CyberSource requirements.

Setup

You must have an active gateway account with CyberSource in order to make use of this plugin. Once you have contacted CyberSource and set up an account with Silent Order Post/Hosted Order Page enabled, you will be able to configure the plugin.

Generate Access / Secret Key

CyberSource uses an access key and secret key to perform SOP transactions. If you want to perform test transactions, you’ll have to repeat these steps for your Test as well as Live accounts. Note that if you accepting eChecks you only need to perform these steps once, and simply enable eChecks in your CyberSource account. Both methods can use the same account credentials. To generate:

2. Go to Tools & Settings > Secure Acceptance > Profiles, and click “Create New Profile” in the bottom right to create a payment profile.
   

   

3. Enter all profile details – Select “Silent Order Post” for the method – and click “Save”. Your profile id can be set to whatever you want (min 7 characters), but will be needed for the plugin settings page. Save this and enter it there.
   
4. Now you’ll have to set up your Payment Methods – click on “Payment Settings”:
   

   

5. Click “Add / Edit Card Types” and select any cards for which you’ll be accepting payments. If you decided to accept eChecks, you should enable these as well.
