Three-Step Sequence Simulation

A debit cardholder makes a $30 purchase at a retail establishment without inputting a PIN. The transaction is later settled for the full amount. This is the same transaction shown in Three-step sequence in Card Transaction Examples. Also see Scenario 1: Authorization with Settlement.

Authorization

Call Create Simulated Card Authorization with these parameters:

ParameterValue
accountNoPAN or PRN
amount30
associationmc_auth or visa
merchantNameCentral Market
mcc5399
transType1 or leave blank
{
    "status_code": 0,
    "status": "Success",
    "processing_time": 1.681,
    "response_data": {
        "auth_response_code": "00",
        "auth_response_description": "Success",
        "auth_id": 2233
    },
    "echo": {
        "provider_transaction_id": "",
        "provider_timestamp": null,
        "transaction_id": "9f3aa0db-06f8-4e0d-a202-e31d349c77aa"
    },
    "system_timestamp": "2022-10-10 08:32:14",
    "rtoken": "fb599ae2-b0ee-4255-b2f1-6fdef1266462"
}

Capture the auth_id for later use.

The settle_dtl (settlement detail) value can be used for troubleshooting with Galileo.
