If you have enrolled in a Discover® or American Express® Card program, select those icons as well. Remember that you will have to pay an additional fee if you want to accept Discover® or American Express® cards.

Billing Address must match Shipping Address
When this option is selected, the customer will need to have matching addresses for credit card billing and for shipping (for the address you are shipping the order to) at checkout. In other words, the address that the products are shipped to and the address of the credit card holder must be one and the same, or the transaction will be cancelled. This is an extra security precaution, but may result in lost sales.

To deactivate Billing/Shipping Address Match:

- Select No, do not perform check for match.

AVS (Address Verification System)
The Address Verification System (AVS) is used to help prevent fraudulent credit card use and is provided as a service by the credit card associations.

The AVS system compares the Billing Address entered by your customer to the address information your customer has on file with his credit card issuer. The system compares the numerical portion of the street address and the zip code. When the transaction request returns an AVS code comes back with the authorization code.

AVS is intended to help prevent fraud on the premise that someone using stolen credit cards may not have the cardholder's address information and will be detected. This is often true and AVS is a valuable addition to help merchants. However, merchants should also realize that sometimes fraudsters have the correct address information, and that Americans move their households and may not have updated their addresses yet with their banks.

While AVS is not bullet-proof, it still provides a layer of information to help merchants make better decisions about accepting certain credit card purchases.

This feature is handled by your credit card payment gateway. If you are using the IntelliPay credit card payment gateway the following steps will guide you in setting up your AVS system.

Note: If you are not using IntelliPay you would need to contact your credit payment gateway provider for specific instructions for setting up AVS.

Once logged into your IntelliPay account you can configure your AVS settings to Approve or Decline any transaction based upon the AVS response that is returned by the Credit Card issuing bank. To configure these settings you will first need to know which response you can expect from the IntelliPay gateway. Click here to obtain a list of possible AVS responses. After you have determined what AVS response codes you want to allow, follow the directions below to configure your Internal AVS Controls.

Login to your IntelliPay account.
Click on the "Go" button to access the section of "Edit Configuration".
Scroll down to the section of "LinkSmart Options".
You will now see settings that look like this:
If you want to enable the AVS checking, check the checkbox to the right of "Reject if AVS mismatch".
Enter in the AVS codes you want to allow in the text field to the right of "Reject if not".
Scroll down to the bottom of the page and click on the "Submit Configuration" button.

What this will now do is check the AVS response and either approve or decline each individual transaction based upon the values that you have entered.

Sales Tax
This option enables you to charge sales tax where necessary. You can add sales tax for an entire state, and/or create custom tax standards for specific geographical options.

Note: You will need to contact a CPA or your State Tax Commission to determine what you need to charge for tax.
