Forte and Omnipay Integration Guide
To begin the integration process, merchants should contact their Forte representative who will provision their information to a sandbox account. Once provisioned, Forte sends the merchant an Account ID, Location ID, an API Access ID, and an API Secure Key for the sandbox environments. NOTE: The Location ID represents the same information as the Merchant ID in the Virtual Terminal.
For Live environment Forte’s REST services rely on Basic access authentication over HTTPS using an API Access ID and an API Secure Key as the username and password values. Forte will assign your APIAccessID and APISecureKey.
