Part 1


To setup Authorize.NET on your LinkURealty FS website, you will need to perform the following steps. Before you can setup Authorize.NET on a FS website, you need a API Login ID and Transaction Key. The first steps are performed in Authorize.NET, which will require your Authorize.NET login information.

  1. Click to log in to authorize.net at: https://secure.authorize.net/

  2. Once logged in, click on Settings.

  3. Under Security Settings, click on "API Login ID and Transaction Key".

  4. You may have to answer a secret question in order to obtain your API Login ID or Transaction key.

  5. Once you have obtained your API Login ID and Transaction key, make note if it, such as coping and pasting them to notepad or similar program.

In some cases, your Authorize.NET account will be set in TEST MODE before you use it and you will need to take it OUT of test mode in order to start processing transactions. To modify your Authorize.NET account's TEST MODE setting, so you will be able to run live transactions from your gateway, do the following:

  1. Click to login to authorize.net at: https://secure.authorize.net/

  2. Click Settings.

  3. Click Test Mode.

  4. Turn Test ON.

  5. To turn if off, do the following, but turn it to off, once your website is live.
