How To Setup Level 3 Credit Card Processing For Sage 100 ERP v2013+

June 5, 2014 by Wayne Schulz

Sage have just uploaded a video which walks through the steps to configure level three credit cards (government or business purchasing cards) for use as a payment type when integrated to Sage Payment Solutions.

There are really only two main differences:

A checkbox on the payment screen to indicate “level 3” type card is being used

An added field for commodity code.

Commodity codes are used by corporate purchasing organizations to segment and
manage their total spend across diverse product lines. There is no universally accepted
commodity code standard, but the United Nations Standard Products and Services Code
(UNSPSC) is widely deployed.

In order to use level 3 credit card processing you must be on version 2013 or 2014 of Sage 100 ERP.

Visa Mastercard Litigation Refund – Sage Payment Mailings Explained

August 28, 2013 by Wayne Schulz

Several of our customers have called with questions about a mailing they received from Sage Payment Solutions. The title of the mailing “Visa/Mastercard Antitrust Litigation – You may be eligible for a refund!” announces that Visa and Mastercard users may be eligible to claim part of a $7.2 billion class action settlement concerning swipe fees.

via NBC News:

Visa, MasterCard and the nation’s biggest banks have agreed to pay $7.3 billion to millions of merchants to end a seven-year dispute over credit card “swipe” fees. The settlement includes at least $6.05 billion in payments to some 7 million merchants for past damages and a temporary reduction in fees valued at $1.2 billion.

The mailing from Sage is a way for users who don’t wish to file their own claim (here) to use the services of a third party who will file the claim on their behalf for a percentage of the amount recovered.
