Direct Post Method questions

tomn68 — Thu, 02 May 2013 17:29:24 GMT

We currently have an integration using the Direct Post method for some US customers. Would this same integration work for a customer in the UK with a Barclays merchant account w/o needing to change anything? Would it simply then just process in pounds because they have a auth.net UK account and UK merchant account?

Thanks. Just so I have this straight (sorry about this), this refers to someone with a non-US merchant account to process transactions in that merchant accounts local currency vs. being able to process with a US merchant account in a foriegn currency, right? So end result is a UK business can charge in Pounds and a UK customer paying with a UK credit card will see a local charge on their statement, right?

Thanks again

The default is whatever the account are setup, unless you override it with the x_currency_code
