          Tip

          

To obtain the production account, contact [Authorize.Net](https://www.authorize.net/resources/how-payments-work.html) ![](https://cdn.document360.io/24f960e8-3c1c-4c18-a2c6-83b6ae4aab84/Images/Documentation/external-link-svgrepo-com.svg?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-11T12%3A29%3A00Z&se=2026-11-11T13%3A29%3A00Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=s9vzczB%2FjNE8z8T7oeAc7vhLGlno%2Fbv6qycdNBTMEZY%3D) directly.

1. Sign into your sandbox **Account**, then go to **API Credentials & Keys**.
2. Enter the **API Login ID**.

![Destination config](https://cdn.document360.io/24f960e8-3c1c-4c18-a2c6-83b6ae4aab84/Images/Documentation/Destination%20config.png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-11T12%3A29%3A00Z&se=2026-11-11T13%3A29%3A00Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=s9vzczB%2FjNE8z8T7oeAc7vhLGlno%2Fbv6qycdNBTMEZY%3D)

## Customize payment gateway behavior

1. From the application left navigation area, select **Administration**.
2. From the top navigation bar, select **Master Data Management**.
3. Scroll or search to locate **Groovy Script** and select it from the list.
4. Choose one of the following options:
  - **Option 1**
    1. Select **Payment Gateway Submission Params**.
    2. In **Script File**, attach the Groovy script, then select **Save**.

This Groovy script sends additional data to Authorize.net, such as the billing address or shipping cost. The script should return a nested map containing keys and values in the format expected by Authorize.net, as defined in [Payment transactions](https://developer.authorize.net/api/reference/index.html#accept-suite-get-an-accept-payment-page) ![](https://cdn.document360.io/24f960e8-3c1c-4c18-a2c6-83b6ae4aab84/Images/Documentation/external-link-svgrepo-com.svg?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-11T12%3A29%3A00Z&se=2026-11-11T13%3A29%3A00Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=s9vzczB%2FjNE8z8T7oeAc7vhLGlno%2Fbv6qycdNBTMEZY%3D).
  - **Option 2**
    1. Select **Payment Gateway Handle Status Check Result**.
    2. In **Script File**, attach the Groovy script, then select **Save**.

This Groovy script is called when Authorize.net has processed the payment for the order. The script stores the transaction ID. Data from Authorize.net is made available in the script in the `payload` variable.

## User experience when making direct payments

On the checkout and re-order screens, users can choose from two types of payments:

- **Purchase order**
- **Direct payment**

### Direct payment

The user enters credit card details on the direct payment screen.
