Changing or Setting Up Processor

Below are instructions for changing or setting up your processor. If you are requesting a processor change and the partner on your account is not PayPal,
VeriSign, or CyberCash, you mu st co ntact your existing Partner/Reseller to verify that the processor can be changed. Some processors are also resellers of the Payflow service and changing the processor can cause your existing account with PayPal to be cancelled.
If you change to a different processor, you will no longer be able to perform credits on transactions done through your old processor. In order to perform credits, you will be required to enter these as new credit transactions either programmatically or manually using PayPal Manager.
Additionally, all transactions that were authorized using your old processor must be captured before changing processors.
For additional questions, contact PayPal Customer Service at payflow-support@paypal.com. Perform the following steps to change and/or set up your processor information with PayPal:
1. Contact your merchant bank to obtain the processor that your account is usin g. The
following processors are compatible with PayPal at this time:
American Express
– Electronic Checks (ACH) – First Data Merchant Services (FDC) Nashville – First Data Merchant Services (FDC) South – First Data Merchant Services North (CardNet) – Global Payments East (NDC East) – Global Payment Central (MAPP) – Heartland – Litle – Merchant e-Solutions – Moneris – NOVA (Elavon) – Paymentech - Salem – Paymentech - Tampa – SNET - SecureNet – TSYS (Vital/VisaNet) – Vantiv – WPAY - World Pay
