1. Introduction

CreditPass is a third party Fraud Detection provider that can be accessed via the Nexi Payengine Platform.

Its system provides access to several credit information agencies/bureaus in Germany, to check credit-worthiness and account, personal and address details, etc.

The merchant can have several checks performed, based on specific criteria configured in his creditPass account.

Not all checks available at creditPass can be performed via the Nexi Payengine integration. It is only possible to run checks which are performed online.

Nexi Payengine only acts as a technical gateway by forwarding data to creditPass in order to have it checked, and by returning the result of the check performed by creditPass to the Merchant. Nexi Payengine cannot be held liable for the result of the check performed by creditPass.

Activation
In order to use creditPass via Nexi Payengine, you need to have the ELV payment method configured. The configuration cannot be done by yourself. We invite you to contact the ConCardis Sales Team in order to configure your account.

2.2 e-Terminal

In the e-Terminal screen, various additional address fields are displayed. For creditPass validation, you only need to enter invoice address details.

2.3 Transaction feedback

A check with creditPass will result in a score, as well as a recommendation, which can have one of the following values:

creditPass recommendation
0 : authorised
1 : not authorised
2 : check manual
-1 : no answer

If the transaction is considered to be fraudulent, it will be refused and have the status "2 - Refused"; the merchant cannot determine dynamic behaviour based on the score returned by creditPass.

This information is contained in the Virtual Ticket provided by creditPass and integrated into the transaction details, in your Nexi Payengine account.

Questions fréquemment posées

Le délai d’activation des méthodes de paiement dépend des facteurs suivants :

  • Il faut généralement compter une semaine pour qu’un acquéreur ou une banque valide l’affiliation. Si vous êtes déjà affilié, l’activation ne prendra que quelques jours.
  • Certaines méthodes de paiement nécessitent des vérifications supplémentaires avant de pouvoir les activer. C’est le cas de 3-D Secure, qui est demandé directement auprès de VISA ou de MasterCard (et non de l’acquéreur).


Il arrive parfois qu’un numéro d’affiliation soit inactif du côté de l’acquéreur. Nous vous suggérons de contacter votre acquéreur à ce sujet.
