Connect CardConnect to your Bolt merchant account.

View As MarkdownMCP

Connect CardConnect to Bolt so Bolt can authorize and capture payments through your CardConnect account.

Step 1: Obtain CardConnect keys

Collect these values from your CardConnect account representative:

  • Username
  • Password
  • Merchant ID
  • URL

Step 2: Add keys and edit payment settings

  1. Log into the sandbox or production Merchant Dashboard.
  2. Go to Settings > Payments.
  3. Click Set Up CardConnect.
  4. Enter URL, User, Merchant Password, and Merchant ID.
  5. Click Next.
  6. Edit payment settings, then click Complete Setup.

Expected result: CardConnect appears as your active processor under Settings > Payments.

Step 3: Configure risk settings

For saved cards, Bolt does not transmit CVV match data.

With Total Fraud Protection

Use CardConnect's security settings to allow shipping and billing address mismatches.

Without Total Fraud Protection

Tell your fraud provider that payments through this processor will not include CVV match information.

Step 4: Set up chargeback notifications

Configure CardConnect communication preferences for digital chargeback notifications.

Chargeback handling

  • With Total Fraud Protection: CardConnect supports manual dispute submissions.
  • Without Total Fraud Protection: Follow CardConnect's chargebacks process.

Testing

Use CardConnect's test credentials in sandbox or staging.
