MerchantBankId Property

The number which identifies the merchant's bank or processor.

Syntax

tsysbenefitcontrol.MerchantBankId[=string]

Default Value

""

Remarks

The number which identifies the merchant's bank or processor.

This property contains a six digit Visa assigned Bank Identification Number issued by the merchant's member bank or processor. The acquirer Bank Identification Number (BIN) identifies the member bank that signed the merchant using the Point of Sale application. This property may not remain zero-filled.

Note, the TSYS Server uses the Merchant's MerchantBankId and MerchantNumber to route the transaction to the proper back-end processor. If either number is incorrect (or if you're using test numbers and the test system is offline) the TSYS server will immediately disconnect, and will not supply an error message.
