### Finding Your API Key in Moneris

You will need an API key from your Moneris account to connect your payment gateway to your EventMobi Core Registration Site(s). The instructions below outline how to create your API key in Moneris and place it into EventMobi's Experience platform. 

- Select the **Settings **option in your Moneris portal, followed by **Developer Tools**. 
- Take note of your **Store ID **and **API Key** on this page.

### Connecting Moneris to EventMobi

Once you've generated your API key from Moneris, you'll need to add it to the Experience platform to connect your payment gateway to your events. Follow the steps listed below to connect your Moneris account to EventMobi. 

- Select the **Payment Gateways** option from your organization's menu.
- Click **Add Connection**. 
- Input a **Name** to reference the payment gateway in your Experience organization.
- Select **Moneris** from the **Gateway** dropdown menu.
- Copy and paste your Moneris **Store ID. **
- Enter your **API Token** from Moneris.

- Select **Add Connection** to save your setup. 
- Refer to the **Status **area to confirm that your payment gateway is **Active**. 

**See an Inactive Status?**  Check the status of your credentials using the **Check Status** option in the Experience platform. If the status remains **Inactive**, you can try updating the status again later, or you will need to create a new gateway and repeat the steps above.

### Link the Gateway to Your Event

After connecting your payment gateway at the organization level, follow these steps to link it to your event:

1. Open the **Experience Manager**.
2. Go to your event and select **Registration** from the menu.
3. Click into **Registration Details**.
4. Navigate to the **Payment Settings** tab.
5. Choose the appropriate payment gateway from the **Gateway** dropdown menu.

Your gateway is now linked to this event and ready to be used for paid tickets.

### How To Test Your Payment Gateway

An actual payment will need to be processed to test your payment gateway. We recommend creating a ticket with a small fee (example: $1.00) that you can test, and then complete a registration with a credit card. 

Once the registration payment has been processed, you can initiate a refund from your payment gateway. 

### Managing Payments and Refunds with Moneris

All refunds for registration fees must be processed directly from your Moneris account.  The instructions below outline how to view transaction records and process refunds.

- Go to the **Reports **area of your Merchant Portal and select **Find a Transaction**. 
- Use the **Search **options to find the transaction you want to refund. 
- Select **View Details **on the correct transaction from your search results. 
- Click on **Refund **at the top of the page. 
- Enter the refund amount that you would like to process. 
- Click on **Confirm Refund,** followed by **Submit Refund**. 

**Is your Refund button grayed out?** This means that the transaction is not eligible for a refund. Hover over the **Refund** button to view additional details. 

### Understanding Moneris' Response Codes

Moneris uses response codes to indicate the status of a request. You can find a detailed list on [Moneris' Support page](https://developer.moneris.com/More/Testing/Response%20Codes), but a few response codes you may want to take note of are: 

- **000:** Approved
- **050: **Declined
- **074:** Unable to Authorize
