Modified on Tue, 8 Oct at 9:49 AM

Adding a Barclaycard SmartPay Fuse connection to your BR-DGE retail channel requires you to collect some information for us to add to your BR-DGE retail channels. This article details the information BR-DGE requires, and how you can locate it.

Barclaycard SmartPay Fuse Account

If you don't already have a Barclaycard SmartPay Fuse Account, then you will need to contact the Barclays team and arrange a callback.

BR-DGE requires the following information to allow you to route payments to Barclaycard SmartPay Fuse through our platform:

Merchant Id
Merchant Key Id
Merchant Secret Key

Please note that some of these details are sensitive. We ask you to handle these with care.

How to locate your Merchant Id?

Login to Barclaycard SmartPay Fuse Portal.
On the portal main page, there is a banner at the top with configuration details.
The value for Merchant Id is the value in this banner for Transacting Id.

How to create your Merchant Key Id?
Follow the instructions for creating a Direct REST API key in section 8 of this Implementing Payer Authentication Direct REST API documentation.
The value for Merchant Key Id is the key detail (key id) generated.

How to create your Merchant Secret Key?
The value for Merchant Secret Key Id is the shared secret key generated in the above step.

3-D Secure Prerequisites:

Please contact the Barclaycard SmartPay Fuse Support team to ensure that your Merchant Id is configured for 3-D Secure and the following credentials are in place correctly;

API Identifier - A non-secure value that should be passed within a JWT token under the iss claim.
Org Unit Id - A non-secure value that should be passed within a JWT token under the OrgUnitId claim.
API Key - A secure value that should never be rendered or displayed anywhere within a browser/mobile app.
NOTE: This value must only ever be stored on your server. The API Key is used to sign a JWT token to initialise the connection to Cardinal Commerce, and to verify the JWT token signature received back from Cardinal.
To verify if you have 3-D Secure configured, please see instructions via this Cardinal knowledge article.

These credentials must be present in your Barclaycard SmartPay Fuse account for 3-D Secure to work correctly.
