Activate Method

Activates a merchant account on the Datawire VXN.

Syntax

fdmsregister.activate([callback])

Callback

The 'callback' parameter specifies a function which will be called when the operation completes (or an error is encountered). If the 'callback' parameter is not specified, then the method will block and will not return until the operation completes (or an error is encountered).

The callback for this method is defined as:

function(err){ }

'err' is the error that occurred. If there was no error, then 'err' is 'null'.

'err' has 2 properties which hold detailed information:

err.code
err.message

Remarks

After you have successfully registered, you will still not be able to send transactions using the Datawire VXN until you activate your account. For the security reasons, a merchant is required to activate within a limited time period after receiving a successful registration response. Otherwise, the Datawire VXN will deactivate the account and you will need to restart the registration process again.
