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:

Parameter	Value
`accountNo`	PAN, PRN or CAD
`amount`	`30`
`association`	`mc_auth` or `visa`
`merchantName`	`Central Market`
`mcc`	`5399`
`transType`	`1` 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.

Settlement

Call Create Simulated Card Settlement with these parameters:

Parameter	Value
`authId`	`auth_id` from the authorization response
`accountNo`	PAN, PRN or CAD
`association`	`visa` or `mc_auth`
`amount`	`30` or leave blank

{

    "rtoken": "9f6f90f0-a85d-4594-86fd-bf1d1b3ec51c"
}

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