Overview
This article explains how to set up the Repay Integration in Merchant Central. The Repay Integration provides daily merchant reporting and monthly statement access, helping partners keep merchant activity, batches, transactions, account information, chargebacks, retrievals, and statements up to date in the CRM.
Some areas of the integration may still use the former name, TriSource.
Prerequisites
Before setting up the Repay Integration, make sure you have:
- Access to Merchant Central with permission to manage processor settings.
- A Repay relationship manager contact.
- SFTP reporting enabled for your portfolio.
- The SFTP login, hostname, and home path, if available.
How does the Repay Integration work?
The Repay Integration uses reporting files delivered to an SFTP location. Merchant Central pulls those files into the CRM and uses them to update merchant reporting, account information, batch and transaction activity, chargebacks, retrievals, and monthly statements.
New merchants are added to Merchant Central when they are found in the reporting files. You may also add a merchant on the day of approval. For more information, see How to Add a Merchant.
Based on Repay’s file delivery schedule, batch totals may appear for the current day and then continue increasing through the following day. For example, on January 1, batches may appear in Merchant Central for January 1. On January 2, those batch totals may increase and may not show in full until 5pm ET.
Enabling the Repay Integration
To enable the Repay Integration, request SFTP reporting from your relationship manager, add the SFTP credentials to the Repay processor settings in Merchant Central, and schedule the required TriSource tasks.
How to request SFTP reporting
Email your relationship manager with the following information to have the reporting files sent to an SFTP location for Merchant Central to access.
