  1. Credit Card Transaction Processing for E-commerce Web Sites with Java Sean C. Sullivan sean@seansullivan.com

  2. Agenda • Credit card fundamentals • Credit card transaction processing • Solutions for Java developers • Q & A

  3. Credit Cards

  4. Credit Cards 101 • Card number • Expiration date • Card verification number

  5. Validating aCredit Card Number • “Mod 10” check algorithm • Right-most digit is the check digit • 4100000000000001 Note: Always run the Mod-10 algorithm before submitting a transaction!

  6. Example: Mod-10 algorithm • Number: 74385 • (5*1) , (8 * 2) , (3 * 1), (4 * 2), (7 * 1) • 5, 16, 3, 8, 7 • 5 + (1 + 6) + 3 + 8 + 7 • Sum = 30 • 30 mod 10 = zero • This number passes the algorithm.

  7. Types of Credit Card Transactions • Card present transactions • Card not present (CNP) transactions

  8. Participants in a Credit Card Transaction • Cardholder • Issuing bank • Merchant • Acquiring bank

  9. Typical Internet transaction Internet payment service provider Cardholder Merchant’s web site Issuing bank Payment processor Acquiring bank

  10. Basic Credit Card Transaction Two steps: • Authorization • Settlement

  11. Authorizations Authorization request Merchant application Internet payment service provider Authorization response Authorization takes place when the customer places an order

  12. Address Verification • Address Verification System (AVS) • Use it! • Added protection against fraud • Verifies: • billing street address • billing zip code

  13. Authorization Issues • How long does an authorization take? • What if your application does not receive a response? • Lifetime of an authorization? • What if the cardholder cancels the order?

  14. Authorization Reversals • Undo a prior authorization • Types: • Full reversal • Partial reversal • Not universally supported • CyberSource: no auth reversals

  15. Settlement • “settle” an authorized transaction • CyberSource refers to this as “bill” For physical goods, settlement of the transaction should not occur until the merchandise is shipped to the customer.

  16. Credits • Refund • Original credit

  17. Merchant Account • Sign up for Merchant account with a financial institution Alternative: • Use a payment service that does not require you to have a merchant account (ex: PayPal, CCNow)

  18. Java API for Credit Card Transaction Processing? • There is no standard API • Must use API provided by the payment service provider • Every vendor has their own API

  19. Internet PaymentService Providers • ClearCommerce • Cybercash • CyberSource • SurePay • Verisign • …and many more

  20. Choosing a Payment Service Provider • Transaction fees? • Multiple currencies? • Integration with 3rd party web commerce products? • Support for required card types? • API / SDK?

  21. Choosing a Payment Service Provider (cont) • Provides a Test server for performing “test” transactions? • Fraud screening services? • Management and Reporting tools? • Service and support? • Security? Scalability?

  22. Development Issues • Explicitly open and close SSL sockets? • Need to license an SSL class library? • One connection or many? • Connection timeouts • Does the vendor’s API shield you from connection complexity?

  23. Development Issues (cont) • How to represent money? • java.lang.String?? • java.math.BigDecimal?? • Classes to represent currency? • Thread safety of the vendor’s class library?

  24. Exceptional Conditions • Card reported stolen • Card reported lost • Card expired • Invalid credit card • Funds not available • AVS: no match • …

  27. Getting Started with CyberSource • Register at • www.cybersource.com • Download • “CyberSource Java ICS Client Developers Kit (CDK)”

  28. Setting up the CyberSource CDK • Generate cert and key pair • run Ecert utility • Edit ICSClient properties file • Update classpath • cdkjava3310.jar

  33. CyberSource authorization, 2 … req.setCustomerCreditCardNumber( “4111111111111111“); req.setCustomerCreditCardExpirationMonth("12"); req.setCustomerCreditCardExpirationYear("2004"); req.setCurrency("USD");

  34. CyberSource authorization, 3 … offer.setAmount(“7.99”); offer.setQuantity(1); req.addOffer(offer); ICSClientReply reply = (ICSClientReply) client.send(request); …
