Getting Started as a SecurePayTech.com Merchant

Step 1 - Opening a Merchant Account.

A merchant account and a "VPS Merchant ID" is required at any one of the following banks in order to process credit card transactions using both Visa and MasterCard. Please note, you may bank with any New Zealand trading bank including the ANZ and National banks, and have a separate merchant account with one of the banks listed below.

• ASB Phone: 0800 272 555
• BNZ Phone: 0800 737 774
• National Phone: 0800 473 453
• WestPac Phone: 0800 888 066

In addition you may also accept payment from American Express and Diners Club customers, however you will need to contact each of these companies individually in order to obtain merchant status with them.

If you wish to provide refunds to your customers, please ensure you request refunds are enabled on your merchant account at the time of configuration with your bank.

Step 2 - Complete our on-line application form.

The application form requires basic contact information details, along with your merchant account details so that transactions will be routed correctly to your bank account.

In addition you will be prompted to enter your "VPS Merchant ID" in order to connect to SecurePayTech.com. This information will normally be provided to you by the bank.

Please note, your details are secure, and credit card information is encrypted using the latest, reliable, proven technologies. You will be prompted for a set up fee of $30.00 plus GST.

Step 3 - Download and implement our credit card processing template.

Once you have created your customer account, you can download our standard template and integrate it into your website. If you require assistance to perform this task, we recommend that you contact any of our Integration Partners advertised on our home page.

Every customer is able to use a "test" environment in the first instance, to ensure that the implementation is working correctly before making the system "live".
