Connect to Moneris

Before you can use your Moneris account with Benji Pays, please ensure you have activated your gateway in the email received from Moneris. 

Next, you will need to ensure you have the Vault feature enabled on your Moneris account. If you are unsure if you have this feature, log into your Moneris Gateway account and look for a menu with the word "Vault" in it. If you do not see any Vault menus, contact Moneris to have them enable the Vault on your account.

We require that you setup Hosted Tokenization in your Moneris account and provide your Hosted Tokenization Profile ID, Moneris Gateway Store ID and API token in order for us to be able to process your customers' payments.

Step 1:   To get your API Key, go to www.moneris.com, click Login in the top right corner and then click Moneris Gateway. Login using your Moneris credentials.

Step 2:

• Click this link to open your Benji Pays Payment Gateway Settings in a new window.
• Click the blue Add New Gateway button
• Select either Moneris - $CAD or Moneris - $USD on the window that opens. You will now see all the required fields for your Gateway configuration.
• Enter a description for this Gateway, such as "Moneris Canadian"
• Select the deposit account that transactions through this Gateway and currency will be posted to in your accounting system. You will only see accounts that are setup in the currency you have selected for this Gateway.
• Select the accounts receivable account for this Gateway and currency will be posted to in your accounting system. If you do not see an accounts receivable account in the drop down, you may need to create an invoice in your accounting system and refresh this page once that is done.

Important ** Benji Pays cannot process US dollar transactions on a Canadian Moneris account or vice versa, Please ensure you are entering account information for a Moneris account that supports the currency you have selected or your customers will be charged in the wrong currency.

Step 6: Enter your Moneris Store ID into the 'Moneris Store ID' field in the Benji Pays Payment Gateway Settings page. This is the same Store ID you use when logging into the Moneris Gateway in Step 1 above.

Step 7: Click the Admin Menu and then select 'Hosted Tokenization'.

Step 8: Leave the 'Source Domain' text box empty, and then click 'Create Profile'.
