It's easy to accept electronic payments, it's more challenging to reduce fees.  Our team at APS works diligently to get you the lowest credit card processing rates. We offer integrated Sage 100 Level 3 credit card processing in addition to our other level 3 ERP integrations. Our Sage 100 PCI-compliant security solutions feature point-to-point encryption (P2PE), tokenization, and our APSPAYS Vault, eliminating card data that typically would be stored on a local server. 

We also walk our merchants through the PCI Compliance Self-Assessment Questionnaire (SAQ), eliminating the Non-PCI Compliance Fee most merchants pay every month. 

Benefits of Sage 100 Level 3 Credit Card Processing

Merchants who process Level 3 credit card processing transactions using the customer data in Sage 100 will benefit from lower interchange rates than are available for Level 1 or Level 2 purchases. In addition, they receive detailed reporting that allows them to track transactions from beginning to settlement. Our reporting options can also be tailored with up to 60 different data points. Level 3 transactions typically cost a merchant 0.50-1.50% less than a standard Level 1 transaction, amounting to huge savings for B2B companies.

Qualifying for Sage 100 Level 3 Credit Card Processing

Level 3 processing requires the capture of specific line item data in credit card transactions. These additional data fields include merchant name and address, invoice number and tax amount, plus line item details such as item description, quantity and unit of measure, freight amount, and commodity and product codes. The extra reporting we provide makes it easier for corporate and government customers to monitor and track internal spending. 

 

 

Level 1

“Level 1” card data is typically associated with consumer transactions (B2C) and provides limited purchase data back to the cardholder.

Level 2 

Level 2 credit card processing requires less data than Level 3 but more than Level 1.   Just like with Level 3 data, merchants are required to input additional data fields thank they are in Level 1.  The required fields are easier to enter and there are fewer fields to manage. Level 2 processing still provides a savings compared to Level 1 but not as much as Level 3.

Level 3 

“Level 3” (also known as Level III) line item detail is equivalent to the information found on an itemized invoice.
