Before you Begin

Contact an Implementation Specialist to get your account ready. BlueSnap provides you with the gateway credentials you will use in Step 2.

Salesforce Setup

Step 1: Configure your BlueSnap account settings

Complete these steps in your Merchant Portal for production or sandbox.

Get your BlueSnap API credentials and add the following IP address: 204.14.232.100. Both of these actions are performed on the same page; for instructions click here.
Set up your statement descriptor. The statement descriptor is the description that appears on the shopper's credit card statement or bank statement for each transaction and helps the shopper identify the transaction.

Go to Settings > General Settings.
In the Branding Settings section, enter a Default Statement (Soft) Descriptor and Support Phone Number (both appear on the shopper's statement).
Click Submit.

To get paid, you need to configure your payout settings. Refer to Payout for more information.

Step 2: Install Chargent for Salesforce

In this step, you go to our integration partner AppFrontier to install Chargent for Salesforce. The Chargent app lets assigned users accept payments directly inside Salesforce and process those payments via BlueSnap.

Refer to AppFrontier's guide to Integrating BlueSnap with Salesforce using Chargent for details.

Step 3: Set up the BlueSnap gateway

In your Salesforce account, you must configure BlueSnap as a payment gateway within Chargent by following these steps:

Login to your Salesforce account and select Chargent from the top right drop-down menu.
Click the Gateways tab in Chargent, then click New.
From the record type list, select BlueSnap and click Continue.
Configure the following settings:
