Using LinkPoint/Cardservice with Miva Merchant

When you set up your merchant account with LinkPoint/Cardservice, you should have received an email from them that contains important information that you will need in order to configure Miva Merchant to work with your merchant account. Because you will need to copy your entire digital certificate from this email, you will need to have access to the electronic version of the email and not just a printed version of it.

If you have not yet opened your merchant account, you can order one directly from SiteControl. Select the Ecommerce module and then click Apply for a Merchant Account.
