We are looking to explore a custom setup for in-store card-present payments. Specifically:
AMagTek swipe-only reader injected with a custom Authorize.net encryption key (KSID 90139000).
Our goal is to send encrypted track data from this reader directly to Authorize.net’s API or SDK for transaction processing.
We want to avoid third-party services and process fully within Authorize.net’s ecosystem.
Is this possible? (basically trying to take card present payment easily through authorize.net)
Does Authorize.net’s current API or In-Person SDK support receiving and decrypting mag-stripe data encrypted with a custom Authorize.net KSID (not using pre-certified readers)?
If supported, which SDK methods or API endpoints should we use to submit the encrypted track data (KSN, track blocks)?
If not supported, is there an alternative, fully supported way to achieve an easy card capture without introducing another gateway?
