Checkout Settings and Setting Up a Payment Gateway

Step 1. Checkout Settings

1. From your My GunBroker page, click Toolbox> Setup Checkout.
2. To display a logo, you can include an external link (URL) to a .jpg or .gif image (optional).
3. If you do not have an account with a Payment Gateway, you can still use Checkout for managing your orders. In this case, the payment is handled directly between the buyer and seller, outside of GunBroker.com.

Step 2. Enter Payment Gateway information:

To set up a Payment Gateway in the Checkout system, you must already have an account with a Payment Gateway which GunBroker.com supports. See Accepting Payments using GunBroker.com Checkout.

1. Select the checkbox in the window labeled " I would like to enable a payment gateway for my auctions."
2. Select your Payment Gateway from the drop down list of supported gateways.
3. Fill in the required fields for the Gateway.
4. Click Save Changes.

Step 3. Test the Payment Gateway:

You can test processing a charge through your Payment Gateway using the GunBroker.com system. We charge $1.00 to a credit card of your choice through the Gateway. Based on the Gateway response, GunBroker.com notifies you if the charge is approved or declined, and sends you information about the response. With this response, you can work with your Gateway to troubleshoot any setup problems.

Click Test Gateway at the bottom of the Payment Gateway Information screen, and follow the screen prompts.
