To learn more about creating and managing gateways in our Marketplace, review the Gateway user guide. For gateways not included in the Marketplace, review the steps below.

Create a gateway

Visit your Connections area to review all gateways and add new ones. When creating your gateways, select the gateway name and authentication mode (if prompted) before completing required fields. Select ☑️Sandbox to create a gateway in Sandbox mode, for processing test card data and transactions in your Spreedly environment.

Gateway specific fields

When interacting with a Nuvei (formerly SafeCharge) gateway to run transactions, there are several gateway specific fields you can specify.

When making a transaction, you can specify user_id; this maps to the gateway’s UserID field.
When making an authorize call you can specify auth_type and expected_fulfillment_count; these parameters map to sg_AuthType (to trigger the pre-authorization transaction type) and sg_ExpectedFulfillmentCount respectively.
When making any call, you may specify website_id, vendor_id, product_id, middle_name, and card_holder_verification which correspond to sg_WebsiteID, sg_VendorID, sg_ProductID, sg_middleName, and sg_doCardHolderNameVerification respectively.
When making a purchase, authorize, or credit you can specify stored_credential_mode as true or false. When specified as true, the transaction will be flagged as completed using a previously tokenized and stored card data. Specify false when the card data was entered for the first time, which will be tokenized and stored for future transactions.
When making any call, you may specify merchant_descriptor, merchant_phone_number, and merchant_name. These fields are part of Nuvei’s Dynamic Descriptor service and may used to display information on a customer’s credit card statement.
When attempting a credit, you may specify unreferenced_refund field as a true value if you wish to have an unreferenced refund.

Third-party 3DS2 auth data

Spreedly will automatically handle the field mapping for sending third-party 3DS2 authentication data to Nuvei. For more information about how to use this feature, see the 3DS2 Third-party Authentication guide. Spreedly fields map to the relevant Nuvei fields as described in the following table. Note that the challenge_preference field is being set to NoPreference since exemptions are not supported.

Spreedly field	Nuvei field
`three_ds_version`	`threeDSProtocolVersion`
`ecommerce_indicator`	`eci`
`authentication_value`	`cavv`
`directory_server_transaction_id`	`dsTransID`
`xid`	`xid`
`challenge_preference`	`challengePreference`
