Setting up the CyberSource payment processor credentials

updated

In order to use the CyberSource payment processor, you will need input credentials into Soapbox that will be provided in your CyberSource account.

To obtain the proper credentials, follow these instructions from CyberSource for generating a security key for the SOAP Toolkit API. They are included here for your convenience as well:

  1. Login to CyberSource
  2. Click Account Management
  3. Click Transaction Security Keys
  4. Click Security Keys for SOAP Toolkit API
  5. On the Security Keys for the SOAP Toolkit API page, click the Generate Key button
  6. Note the transaction key displayed in the text box. Per CyberSource: 

    "Because you will not see the key again after you leave the page, you must immediately copy or download the key to a safe location on your computer"

  7. You may enter this transaction key into your Soapbox site to use CyberSource

How you enter these credentials in Soapbox is determined by the version of the Soapbox administrator your site has: Soapbox Lightning, Soapbox Engage Classic, or Soapbox CMS Classic.

  • Contextual menu with App Launcher waffle to the left of the navigation
