Click the "Save Gateway" button. Your gateway is now configured. Before enabling your Auto Processing in your Company Settings, add a Customer Payment Profile in Benji Pays and then go to the Manual Processing page and process an invoice payment for the profile you created in order to test that your Gateway is setup correctly.
