Merchant Central has integrations for boarding and reporting on your First Data North portfolio, as well as calculating residuals. See the information below for how to set up each part.
Boarding
- Get AccessOne from First Data.
- Download and complete this form (download Click Here).
- Send an email to accessonesupport@firstdata.com (cc your First Data CSA) with the form attached and request AccessOne API boarding access.
- As soon as First Data enables your ISO for API access, please contact Merchant Central Support and we will show you where to retrieve the information we need through the AccessOne site.
- Provide a list of:
- Bank number(s) -- see steps below
- Agent number(s) for each bank number -- see steps below
- Sales Rep Names + ID's (as listed in the dropdown when boarding an app to North in AccessOne)
How to retrieve your bank and agent numbers:
1. In AccessOne, go to Merch Info > Merchant Information.
2. In the Merchant Name field, enter your company name and click Search.
3. The results table will show all of your merchants. Note the Bank and Agent columns and copy those numbers to provide to Support.
Once this is all set up, head over to our Boarding First Data North Accounts with TurboApp article to get started!
Underwriting Status
- Apps submitted using AccessOne boarding API in TurboApp will have their statuses updated in the site.
- Apps submitted inside AccessOne will be added to Merchant Central the following morning.
- Underwriting comments are not yet available through the API, so you will need to view those on ClientLine AMA as normal.
Transactions and Other Daily Info
- Provide Merchant Central Support with a First Data ClientLine login that is Non-Merchant type, exclusively for use in the CRM (simply request new login credentials as if you had a new employee).
- Also, provide the Hierarchy ID to go along with the ClientLine credentials.
Residuals
File used: ISO#&ResidualStatementSummaryReport-&year_month
- Send Merchant Central Support an Excel spreadsheet with a list of First Data North merchant IDs and approval dates, with any agents' Merchant Central usernames and their residual splits (%) included.
- We will use this spreadsheet to import your merchants to the site and assign users to them for access and residuals purposes.
