Using Zip Code Validation (Beta)
Back to topChoose to Use zip code validation (Beta) to verify at the time of payment that the Postal / Zip code provided by the Booker matches the billing Postal / Zip code for the related card.
This setting enables Staff-side Postal / Zip verification as well.
|
Ensure that your Booking Form (Manage > Layout > Booking Form tab) includes the Postal / Zip code field and that the field is marked as required. The billing Postal / Zip code field is then pre-filled with the value entered in the Booking Postal / Zip code field. The Staff-side add payment form includes these fields by default - no additional configuration is required. |

This feature is currently in Beta, so it is available to try out and provide feedback! Do you have questions or feedback for us? Please reach out to our Technical Support Team. |
Understanding decline response codes
Back to topTransactions can be declined for several reasons. Each transaction response includes an error code to help you determine why the transaction was declined and what to do next.
Responses codes with values of 50 to 999 (inclusive) indicate the transaction was declined.
|
Was a refund declined? The original transaction can no longer be found if the payment was made over 180 days ago. The refund must be processed manually through Moneris, and a POS refund added through Checkfront. |
