Encryption

Credit card encryption is a security measure used to reduce the likelihood of credit or debit card information being stolen. Credit card encryption involves both the security of the card, the security of the terminal where a card is scanned and the security of the transmission of the card’s information between the terminal and a back-end computer system.

Note

Encrypt the payload containing the card details before initiating the request using:

• Your encryption key, found in your API keys section in the dashboard.
• Your request payload is in String format.

You'll use the 3DES algorithm to encrypt the payload.
