XML Transaction Report Guide

Updated by Tech Support

When a payment is processed via your ActivePay secure payment service, an XML-based transaction report can be posted to your accounting software for reconciliation purposes.

This page contains a detailed description of all the fields used. It also contains an example XML required to develop a card payment transaction report receiver on your server.

To enable this feature, the URL of the receiver will need to be configured within the service setup. Please check with support to ensure this has been enabled.

During your testing and development phase, it is possible to use a test gateway. The test gateway will allow different transaction results to be reported without the use of live payment transaction.
