GXBill
Please don't test your biller setup with GXBill's test account—it won't work correctly.
Setting up on GXBill's Website
Before you can begin configuring GXBill as a biller in NATS3, you must first register a merchant account with them. This can be done through their website at http://www.GXBill.com/.
While registering with GXBill, make sure to take down the Merchant ID, Password, and Site Code that are provided to you. This information will be necessary for setting up GXBill in NATS3.
Set the password script to:
- http://linkdomain/signup/passwd_gxb.php
Replace linkdomain with your Link Domain.
Setting up GXBill in NATS
Billers Admin
To begin setting up GXBill as a biller in NATS, go to the Billers Admin. Scroll down to the "Biller" drop-down menu, select GXBill, and click "Add."
Note: If you don't see GXBill, put in a support ticket, as you may need an updated version of NATS.
When prompted, fill out your transaction and chargeback fees, along with when you wish to deduct them. Fill in the Merchant ID and Password that were provided to you by GXBill under the "Account Info" section. If you were not provided with this information, please contact your biller to receive it.
Sites Admin
Next, go to the Sites Admin, create or edit a site, and scroll down to the "Biller Details" section. Find the "GXBill" settings, and enter the Site Code for every site you have set up with GXBill. This information should have been provided to you by your biller.
Scroll down to the "Special Payment Options" section of this page, and select GXBill from the "Biller" drop-down menu. Fill in your desired Join Form Text -- for example: "No Credit Card? Pay by Phone." If GXBill provides you with a Type to fill in, you can fill it into the "Type" field here as well.
Versions 3.1.67.1 and later
GXBill now has the ability to return to NATS after a successful signup. To use this feature, check "Allow Return?" in the Site setup. When checked, GXB will return the surfer through NATS, which allows NATS to show the approval and denial URLs/Templates.
Pay Per Signup Programs and GXBill
By default, GXBill transactions that are not labeled as "dialer" transactions by GXBill will be counted as initials and will pay out on pay per sign up, on which you may not intend to have a payout. If you want to have "Phone" and "SMS" transactions from GXBill in NATS3 to be calculated as dialer transactions instead of initials, you will need to check the configuration option GXB_WEB900_AS_VOICE located in the "Signup" section of the Configuration Admin. With this set, programs will pay out based on the % Dialer value that you have set in the Programs Admin for phone and sms transactions from GXBill.
Geo-Target Banners
GXBill can replace the Pay by Phone text with the words "Pay by Phone" in a user's native language. To enable this feature, edit the NATS join template and make the following change:
Remove the following line:
<input class="join_button" type="submit" name="special[]" value="">
Replace it with the following line:
{if $special_options[option][1] == 'GXB:361'}<input class="join_button" type="image" src=http://www.gxplugin.com/banners/image.php?id=MERCHANTID&site=SITEID&skin=default
name="special[{$special_options[option][1]}]">{else}<input class="join_button" type="submit" name="special[{$special_options[option][1]}]" value="{$special_options[option][0]}">{/if}
Complete your change by logging in to your GXBill account and getting the extra banners. In the new code above, replace MERCHANTID and SITEID with the Merchant ID and Site ID that you wish to associate with these banners.
