WooCommerce Boarding Guide with SkyVerge's plugin

• WooCommerce is a third party plugin that turns your WordPress site into an eCommerce store.

• Skyverge’s WooCommerce plugin uses Cybersource’s Flex Microform payment form, ensuring your page meets SAQ A PCI compliance whilst also providing a seamless checkout for your customers.

• It uses ‘hosted fields’ to process payments, meaning that sensitive payment data is never handled by your business servers. Instead, the data is sent directly to CyberSource.

Before you attempt to set up the integration, please ensure you have/are using the following:

1. Registration for an ‘eCommerce / ISV’ account

   • If you are unsure whether your account is properly configured to support Cybersource integrations, please contact [email protected] or call 1300 780 788. Be sure to mention that you are seeking to install the Cybersource Skyverge WooCommerce plugin.

2. [From Live Payments] Your ‘ISV Configuration Kit’ for the Skyverge WooCommerce plugin

   • You should have received this from the Live Payments CS/applications team shortly after you applied for the integration. This kit will contain key information required for a successful configuration.

   • If you have not received this, please contact customer support to obtain one. You can kick start this process by emailing [email protected] with the email title ‘Request for CBS Woo ISV Configuration Kit’

3. [From Live Payments]  A Valid Skyverge plugin License
