Enabling American Express
-
Contact American Express and sign up with their merchant services. You need to be provided with a Merchant Id(s) (MID) that has been explicitly configured for use with Trust Payments. E-commerce and MOTO (Mail Order Telephone Order) configurations each require a separate MID. If you are not sure, please clarify this with American Express.
If you are moving to Trust Payments from a previous payment gateway, do not re-use the old MID without first contacting American Express and clarifying the situation. You may need to be provided with a new MID to use instead.
- Once you have been provided with an American Express MID, please email the following details to our Support Team at support@trustpayments.com:
