The payment gateway software I've interfaced with is very specific about what formats it accepts. There's an xsd schema for it. Basically just numbers. The gateway still does a lot of validation and will throw all sorts of errors on insufficiently cleaned up data.
- RyanGWU82 18y agoBut your application server can strip out spaces and dashes before you send the number to the gateway. Right?
- astrec 18y agoOf course - We do it. Wondering if anyone uses a payment gateway which prohibits this..
- allenbrunson 18y agohow could they possibly even know you've already stripped out non-numeric characters?
- astrec 18y agoAudit. Our code is audited and certified by a security firm contracted by our merchant service provider (read bank). They don't have any such anti-transformation provision, but I'm curious to know if any payment gateway does.
