Note: If you don't see A1 Payments Gateway, put in a support ticket, as you may need an updated version of NATS.
You will then be prompted for your Account ID, Username, Password, Report Username and Report Password. These will have been provided by A1 Payments when signing up for an account. If you were not given this information, please contact A1 Payments. When you are done configuring these options, click Save.

Next, go to the Sites Admin, create or edit a tour, and scroll down to the "Join Options for this Tour" section. Create a join option that you wish to enable A1 Payments Gateway for, or click the "Edit Option Details for this tour" action icon next to an already existing join option.
On the next page, you will find various fields labeled " A1PAYMENTS" under the Biller Codes column. Fill in the requested Product Codes and Upgrade Codes; these must be obtained from A1 Payments. Once you have filled in the required fields, click Save.
Additionally, you must add rules in order for this join option to be displayed on your join page. You can do so by using the "Rules" action icon, marked with purple arrows. For more information on Rules in NATS4, please see our NATS4 Rules wiki article.
Upsells Admin
A1 Payments also supports cross sales in NATS4. If you wish to use A1 Payments to process cross sales, you must first configure them on the A1 Payments website. Please contact A1 Payments for assistance with this.
Cross Sales
To configure outgoing cross sales in NATS4, go to the Upsells Admin and click on the "Outgoing Cross Sells" tab. Add A1 Payments from the Biller drop-down menu, and click Add New Option. On the next page, you will be prompted to fill in the Title, Description, and Disclaimer for your cross sell option.
You will then need to fill out the Biller Info for your cross sale, which will be provided by A1 Payments. Fill in your Order ID, Initial Amount, Initial Days, Recurring Amount, Recurring Days, Currency, Ref Code, and Domain. You can also choose if you want to send an HTTPS Post when a cross sale transaction occurs with A1 Payments Gateway, or if you want to recalculate your ref code. When you have finished configuring your option, click Save Changes.
If you wish to configure an incoming cross sale in NATS4, go to the Upsells Admin and click on the "Incoming Cross Sells" tab. Add A1 Payments from the Biller drop-down menu, select the Site and Program you want your incoming cross sale to affect, and click "Add New Option".
You will then be prompted to input a title for your cross sale option, as well as the initial and recurring membership fees and lengths. Once you have filled these fields out, input the OrderID and Currency that you received from A1 Payments, and click Save Changes.
Before you can process cross sales in NATS, you will need to allow the IP of the system sending the cross sale. You can do this in the Configuration Admin in the "Billers" section. Scroll down to the Bill1st section, and add your desired IPs to the XSELL_A1PAYMENTS_SECURE_IPS configuration option.
