Welcome to TRU Connect. By following the instructions below, you can get up-and-running with our payment solutions.
1. Sign up
You will need to sign up for an account with Trust Payments. In order to do so you will need an acquiring bank account and associated Merchant Identification (MID). If you do not have one, we recommend TRU Acquiring, our global acquiring solution.
Once you have signed up, you will be in the possession of the following:
- Test site reference - A unique identifier that allows you to process test payments to our sandbox environment. This is essential for testing your integration before going live.
- Live site reference - This works in the same way as the test site reference, but instead allows you to process live payments in our production environment once your account has been configured to do so.
- MyST user credentials - You will receive an email with a link to set up your MyST account. MyST is our online portal that allows you to view and manage transactions processed and also perform other administrative action on your account.
2. Configure your payment solution
At Trust Payments we understand that every business is different, so we provide a number of solutions to best satisfy the needs of your organisation.
Payment Pages - Fully-hosted by Trust Payments, our Payment Pages solution is for merchants who want a simple and easily-implemented way of adding e-payment capability to their online commerce systems. Payment Pages work with custom-designed e-commerce systems as well as with many commercially available shopping cart applications.

Webservices API - By interacting directly with our API, this allows for deep integration of our payment services into your solution, enabling you to retain development capability and write bespoke applications with payment functionality built-in. Submit API calls to our secure servers to process transactions and perform updates.

Mobile SDKs - Our Mobile SDK solutions allow you to seamlessly integrate a prebuilt or custom UI in your Android or iOS app to accept card payments & comply with the Strong Customer Authentication (SCA) mandate. Use this integration if you need a pre-built “Drop-In” UI that also supports tokenization, localisation and other customisation tools to better fit your brand.

Shopping Carts - We provide easy-to-install plug-ins that seamlessly integrate our payment processing into popular shopping cart platforms like Adobe Commerce, WooCommerce and more. These plug-ins allow merchants to enable secure payments on their existing e-commerce stores without the need to write code.

Zero-auths - You can process Account Check requests in order to perform zero-auths. These are used to ensure the details entered by the customer are valid, by checking the cardholder's first line of address, postcode and security code found on the back of the card.

Tokenization - Card details can be Tokenized and securely stored with Trust Payments for future purchases by returning customers. Not only does this lead to faster and easier payments for your customers, your business also benefits from not needing to store sensitive card numbers

4. Test your solution
It is vitally important to thoroughly test your integration using your test site reference before processing live payments. Your system will need to be able to reliably handle different situations that can be encountered by the customer to ensure the best checkout experience. Our Testing centre provides all the documentation you need to make sure your solution is ready.
