Installation Process<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This document will guide you in configuring CCBill Standard forms and FlexForms<\/a> for use in combination with NATS4. This guide assumes that the reader is familiar with NATS4 and has already installed NATS4 on a dedicated server.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n

Avoid testing CCBill payments with a NATS4 test account - it won't work correctly.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Please select the appropriate configuration instructions below based on whether you want to setup NATS4 with CCBill Standard Forms or with CCBill FlexForms.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Configure Your CCBill Account - FlexForms Setup<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Setting Up a CCBill Subaccount (Website)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In order to set up CCBill you need to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Log in to the CCBill Admin Portal<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Click Account Info<\/strong> > Account Setup<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Follow the on-screen instructions to set up the website. (Find detailed instructions here<\/a>.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Each page of the wizard permits the establishment of specific options when creating a new subaccount. Click Next<\/strong> to proceed to the next step and choose a new subaccount number.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. The New Subaccount #field<\/strong> displays the next available subaccount number. Several successive pages of the Create Subaccount wizard will follow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6. Click Prev<\/strong> to return to the previous wizard page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You do not need to download the index page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Basic Settings<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

1. After setting up a subaccount, click Account Info<\/strong> > Sub Account admin<\/strong> again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Select a site from the list of subaccounts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Choose Basic<\/strong> from the navigation pane on the left. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Enter the following Denial URL<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

http://linkdomain\/signup\/returnurl_ccbill.php?memberid=%%memberid%%&session=%%natssess%%<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
5. Add the following Approval URL<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
http://linkdomain\/signup\/returnurl_ccbill.php?status=approved&memberid=%%memberid%%&session=%%natssess%%<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
You may still need to add the passthroughs<\/strong> if they are not added automatically (please be sure to test this). The passthroughs to add to the above URLs would be:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
memberid=%%memberid%%&session=%%natssess%%<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Webhooks<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
1, After setting up the Basic settings, select Webhooks <\/strong>from the navigation pane.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
2. Enter the following URL in the Webhook URL field:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
http://linkdomain\/signup\/process_ccbillff.php<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Advanced Settings<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
1. Select Advanced <\/strong>from the navigation pane.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Traffic Manager<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Ensure that the Traffic Manager is turned OFF<\/strong>. This feature cascades consumers between different payment types within CCBillFF's system and can cause NATS cascading to not work properly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
User Management<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Navigate to User Management<\/strong>. If your site needs user management, set the following options, but make sure they match the NATS settings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
