Remarks

This property sets the merchant's industry type. Valid values are shown in the table below:

Industry TypeDescription
pitRetail (0)Retail environments are classified as those environments where the card and cardholder are physically present at the time of purchase.
pitDirectMarketing (1)Mail Order or Phone Order (MOPO) environments are classified as those environments where the card and/or cardholder are not physically present at the time of purchase and the transaction is performed through the mail or over the telephone.
pitECommerce (2)Electronic Commerce environments are classified as those environments where the card and/or cardholder are not physically present at the time of purchase and the transaction is performed over the Internet.
pitRestaurant (3)Restaurant environments are similar to retail environments, where the card and cardholder are physically present at the time of purchase.* A gratuity may be added at the time of authorization, or before settlement. Note that the itRestaurant industry type requires merchants to use Paymentech's Terminal Capture System (TCS) to process transactions, and batches must be manually settled using the PTechManualSettle class.
pitHotel (4)Hotel/Lodging environments allow for both card-present and card-not-present transactions* (for instance, a phoned-in reservation or a charge for a no-show). Additional hotel (PTechHotelInfo) information must be submitted in the authorization and capture. Additional charges may be added on to the initial authorization using the PTechDetailRecord class before the transaction is settled with the PTechManualSettle class. Note that the itHotel industry type requires merchants to use Paymentech's Terminal Capture System (TCS) to process transactions, and batches must be manually settled using the PTechManualSettle class.

Note: Setting the IndustryType has the side effect of changing the CardEntryDataSource to the default value for the selected industry type. In addition, setting the IndustryType to itDirectMarketing or itECommerce will also reset the PINCapability to ppNoPIN.

* Restaurant orders taken over the phone should be processed as itDirectMarketing transactions. Hotel transactions should always be processed in the itHotel IndustryType. Setting the HotelPreferredCustomer property to True.

Note: This class can only be used to submit itRetail, itHotel, and itRestaurant transactions. Attempting to set any other IndustryType will cause the class to fails with an error
