Setting Up Euro Payment Group in NATS
Billers Admin
To begin setting up Euro Payment Group in NATS, go to the Billers Admin. Scroll down to the "Biller" drop-down menu, select Euro Payment Group, and click "Add."
Note: If you don't see Euro Payment Group, put in a support ticket, as you may need an updated version of NATS.
Fill in the Merchant ID and Merchant Guid that were provided to you by Euro Payment Group. If you were not provided with this information, please contact Euro Payment Group.
Sites Admin
Next, go to the Sites Admin, create or edit a site, and scroll down to the "Biller Details" section. Find the "EUROPAY" settings, and enter your Site URL, Email, Phone, and Content Provided By name. This information will be provided to you by Euro Payment Group.
Once you have done that, scroll down to the "Join Options this Site Offers" section and create or edit a join option to add Euro Payment Group compatibility. Under "Biller Codes", choose the currency type that you want Euro Payment Group to record your transactions under. The default setting for this is US Dollar.
Editing Site Templates
Before you can begin processing NATS transactions for surfers from the U.S. and Canada through Euro Payment Group, you must also get their state information. Without retrieving the state that the surfer is located in, this biller transaction will fail for surfers based in the U.S. and Canada.
To avoid facing this issue, you can insert code on your join page template in order to retrieve this information. This can be done through the Sites Admin. Simply click the "Edit Signup Form Templates" action icon for the site you wish to change, and edit the subsequent join template.
You can use the following code to retrieve state information from your surfers:
<TR><TD class="join_name">State:</TD><TD
class="join_value">{if $vars.state || $mdata.state}{assign var=state
value=$vars.state|default:$mdata.state}{else}{assign var=state value=$states}{/if}<select
name="signup[state:1]" id=state>{html_options options=$states
selected=$state}</select></TD></TR>
This will display a drop-down menu where the user will be able to select the state that they are located in.
