Authorize.net AIM and International CC purchase authorization

Ref: http://www.authorize.net/support/AIM_guide.pdf

After reading and using Authorize.net AIM pdf guide, it is not clear if this service international requires for CC purchase authorization (i.e., outside of the United States)

If so, then what are the expected guidelines for information gathering minimally expected to perform an international authorization?

If AIM is not the correct service for international CC purchase authentication, then what Authorize.net service is?

Thank you

Hi,

There are no integration differences when processing an international transaction. Since the merchant's default Address Verification Service (AVS) settings may cause foreign transactions to be declined, merchants who plan to regularly accept international transactions should make sure that their AVS settings are configured to not reject transactions from a non-U.S. card issuing bank.

Merchants processing transactions in currency other than US dollars (USD) are required to submit the following Billing Information fields.

Thanks,

Joy
