A unique number used to identify the merchant within the VisaNet system.

Syntax

tsyssettlecontrol.MerchantNumber[=string]

Default Value

""

Remarks

A unique number used to identify the merchant within the VisaNet system.

This 12 digit property contains a unique number which is assigned by the signing merchant's bank or processor. This property is used to identify the merchant within the VisaNet system. This number will be right-justified and 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.
