We received a letter from our bank, Wells Fargo, stating by April 19, 2013 Mastercard is requiring card present transactions with Mulitple point-of-sale devices at one location to pass a unique terminal ID with each transaction. We are using AIM with USB card swipes, does this apply and if so are there fields available to pass to Authorize.net? Below is from the letter we received.
"Mastercard data accuracy compliance mandate
Effective April 19, 2013 Mastercard is requiring merchants with card present transaction and with multiple point-of-sale (POS) devices at one location to pass a unique terminal ID with each transaction. Currently this information is omitted or only default information is provided. MAstercard is also requiring the following fields to be transmitted:
- Transmission date and time that the autorization message is processed
-POS postal code of the merchant's location, if applicable
-Trace ID populated by Mastercard when the authorization response is returned
-Approval Code value returned in the authorization response"
Thanks.
