❔ How do I find my NMI Username and Password?

Log in to Chargezoom, then navigate to Integrations and select Merchant Gateway

integration_merchant_gateway

Here, you will see a list of all gateways that you have connected. To add a new gateway, click the +Add New button.

Next, you will enter a "Friendly Name" which is any name that means something to you. For example, if you have multiple MIDs with the same gateway, you may want to label them GatewayVendor01, GatewayVendor02, etc. to keep them easily identifiable to your team. Then select NMI from the drop-down menu.

Next, you will enter your Username and Password for your account. Click here for details on how to find your Username and Password.

If your account allows you to accept multiple types of electronic payments, simply check the box next to the payment type. 

❔ What's the difference between an Electronic Check, eCheck, and ACH? The acronym ACH is short for Automated Clearing House, which is an electronic network for processing transactions between financial institutions such as banks. Most commonly the term "ACH" is used to indicate a transfer from a bank account via a checking or savings account, which acts similarly to the process of writing a paper check. The term has evolved to include multiple variations including "electronic check", "e-check", and "eCheck". In essence, all of these words have the same meaning but some businesses prefer to use one word or the other. Your merchant agreement may use any/all of these terms to confirm that you are able to accept electronic payments directly from a bank.

Finally, click the Add button and you're done!
