What You Need to Know
Setting up credit card processing through the software is generally a one-time process. Once you have connected your internet payment gateway account to your first event site, you will be able to migrate (copy) the settings to future event sites.
If you are a returning customer, click here for instructions on migrating your previous credit card settings to a new event site. Once migrated, you can review and edit the non-gateway settings such as offset fees and language.
