Dynamics AX, Shopping Carts, & Payment Gateways Dynamics AX and the right payment gateway can help your business succeed For an eCommerce business, a payment gateway, payment hub, shopping cart solution, and excellent ERP software—like Microsoft Dynamics AX—are a must. These tools help you collect payments from customers while keeping track of sold items and what customers bought them. Microsoft Dynamics AX comes already integrated with some payment gateways right out of the box, making processing as well as sharing information and customer data easy. If you use a payment B2B payment gateway that is not supported by Dynamics AX, your shopping cart solution, and payment gateway can work together to ensure that the payment is processed correctly and can then send that information over through a custom Dynamics eCommerce integration. Security: The Top Concern When Dealing with Payment Gateways and ecommerce When dealing with customer-sensitive information, especially credit card information, a business needs to take every precaution to keep that information secure. When handling customer credit card information, our ecommerce solution, Clarity eCommerce Framework™, doesn’t store sensitive credit card information. Only the last four digits and expiration date are encrypted and saved, while the rest of the card information isn’t stored locally. If the card isn’t already on file, a token is created for it (provided by a PCI DSS provider) and then securely sent over SSL to the payment gateway. Below are some payment B2C, C2C, and B2B payment gateways that work well with Dynamics AX and most ecommerce shopping cart solutions. First Data First Data is one of Microsoft Dynamics Payment services supported payment providers. Choosing First Data as your payment provider with Dynamics AX allows you to leverage lower costs per transaction. First Data Payment services are already fully integrated with Dynamics AX out of the box, which means payment information is automatically sent to your ERP, with no need for additional integration. Authorize.Net and CyberSource If you use Microsoft Dynamics 2009, Authorize.Net is one of your options for a preferred payment service, which means Dynamics is already integrated with Authorize.Net out of the box. However, Dynamics 2012 doesn’t offer this option because CyberSource purchased Authorize.Net, and Microsoft expects Authorize.Net to eventually be added to CyberSource’s product suite. CyberSource is another one of Microsoft Dynamics Payment services supported payment providers and is already integrated. Using CyberSource with Dynamics AX will help you lower costs for each transaction. PayPal PayPal is another supported payment provider that can seamlessly integrate with Microsoft Dynamics out of the box. It can also help lower transaction costs and enables you to capture and authorize payments for your Dynamics AX software. Worldpay from FIS Litle & Co. became part of Vantiv in 2012, which then merged with Worldpay Group plc to become Worldpay, Inc. in 2017. It was then acquired by FIS in 2019, becoming Worldpay from FIS. Worldpay from FIS offers eCommerce payment processing, which can be integrated into Clarity eCommerce Framework™, our B2B eCommerce marketplace platform, to complete your eCommerce transactions. Then, using our middleware integration solution, Clarity Connect™, the purchase data can be transferred or shared with Dynamics AX software in real time. Clarity Ventures is a Microsoft Dynamics certified partner and has integrated Dynamics AX with numerous line-of-business applications and eCommerce websites. BNG Holdings BNG is another great payment gateway option for eCommerce businesses. It can be easily integrated with most shopping carts, including Clarity eCommerce, to make the checkout process and payment authorization happen quickly and smoothly. While it isn’t part of Microsoft Dynamics Payment services, it can still be integrated through a custom solution, which will help ensure that payment information gets transferred over in real time to your Dynamics AX installation.
