INSTALLATION GUIDE

VERSION 2.4.16

 

Introduction


Point‐of‐Sale (POS) systems that process sensitive payment information are required to certify their payment applications to the Payment Application Data Security Standard (PA‐DSS). The addition of EMV certification and continued need for both encryption and tokenization has become a concern for both merchants and integrators. Instituting and maintaining these standards requires significant financial and employee resources in order to adhere to the Payments Card Industry Data Security Standards (PCI DSS) compliance requirements. Subsequently, any changes made in the POS system, may require a partial or full recertification, which increases the cost and time to market. BridgePay has engaged these issues through our product line, the Pay Guardian suite, to better serve the needs of our integrators and merchants.

PayGuardian is a light weight, highly secure client application that integrates seamlessly into POS applications. PayGuardian facilitates the transaction process by handling the collection and transmission of sensitive payment information as an out of scope PA-DSS solution, thereby offloading the certification responsibility from merchants and integrators. PayGuardian is EMV enabled, handles point to point encryption, and tokenizes all transactions to ensure transaction processing is seamless and secure.

The PayGuardian Installation Guide describes a typical installation and configuration of the PayGuardian client application by merchants and reseller partners. Please contact BridgePay Network Solutions at gateway.support@bridgepaynetwork.com with any questions, or to request further assistance. For a more in-depth look at PayGuardian, please reference our PayGuardian Desktop User Guide.

Once “Finish” is clicked, a Blue loading screen will appear before the registration of your product begins. If the registration process does not start and you are given an error that you are unable to connect to the local database, please restart the PayGuardian Service and try again. If that does not work, you may need to update the SSL certificate of PayGuardian to continue.

Registration

Once registration starts, you will be asked to provide information specific to your organization. With the exception of the Registration Key, none of this information is validated. You are able to input specific information true to the current installation you are working on.

Note: The Registration screen will not display if the silent install was used with the Settings.xml file. 

  • Enter the Registration Key provided by BridgePay Integrations. If you are unsure about the Registration Key, please contact Gateway Support for assistance. The test registration key is H75RCGRV.

  • Enter the general setup information as indicated by the red asterisks (required fields).

Login Credentials

Setup Login Credentials

On the next screen of registration, you will be creating the Master Admin user for PayGuardian as well as set the security question for this account. This login will be able to access your account specific information for your gateway as well as be able to troubleshoot your credit card terminal. This user is unique to you and will never be provided to you by BridgePay or Integrator Support.

Note: The creation of two separate Admin users is recommended for PayGuardian, so that in the event one user account is temporarily locked, the additional Admin user account would still be accessible.

  • Complete the “Register” screen by completing the information as indicated by the red asterisks (required fields).

Enter Login Credentials

Enter the same user credentials for PayGuardian created or entered on the “Register” screen.

Setting Up Your Installation

Admin

When you login, you will be taken to the Admin Tab of PayGuardian. This screen will allow you to be able to create secondary admin accounts (that have the same accesses as the first admin account) as well as create “Clerk” users that would only have access to the Virtual POS option of PayGuardian Desktop.

NOTE: If you are setting up an integration to PayGuardian Desktop through a Cashiering-type setup, the use of a “Clerk” user is recommended for that integration.

Adding A User

When clicking “Add User” a pop-up box appears.

User Name: This field is where you would input the username you are attempting to create. Only alphanumeric characters only.

Role: The permissions this user will have. The roles to choose from are:

  • ADMIN - a user that allows you to fully troubleshoot PayGuardian, including creating new users, add new payment server information, and connect credit card terminals.

  • CLERK - a user that is only allowed to process transactions through the Virtual POS.

Password: Password should consist of 8-30 characters with alphanumeric characters and at least one special character.

Confirm Password: Duplication of the password you entered above it

Security Question: You are able to choose between one of five security questions that you will use on the Forgot Password screen if you ever needed to change your password without knowing it. The questions available are:

  • What is your childhood nickname?

  • What is your favorite place to visit?

  • What was your dream job as a child?

  • Who was your childhood hero?

  • What was the name of your first car?

Answer: The answer to the question above. Your answer must be between 5 and 40 characters.

Connecting Your Gateway Account

After you have created the user accounts necessary for your integration, next you will want to connect your gateway account to allow for transactions to flow from your point-of-sale solution to PayGuardian and then to your merchant account boarded within MyBridgePay. Connecting this account is done under the Payment Server option.

To connect your account, click Add Account on this screen. A new pop-up will appear.

On this pop-up window, you are asked for a User ID and a Password. For User ID, this is what is typically referred to as your API username, or the username associated to your Merchant Account within MyBridgePay. For Password, you will enter the password that is associated with the above username. If your username and password combination is correct, you will get a success message when you click Ok. If your credentials are incorrect, please reach out to Integration Support or our CSM team to validate those credentials.

Setting Up Your Credit Card Terminal

You’ve created your user account and connected PayGuardian to your merchant account. Now it is time to make sure that your PayGuardian installation can speak to the credit card terminal that is plugged into a USB port on your workstation. You will make all of your setup decisions under the Hardware tab.

Before making any decisions on this screen, it is best practice to validate which COM port your device is connected to. To easily determine this, you will need to access Device Manager on your Windows machine. Once Device Manager is open you will search for the option for Ports (COM & LPT). Click on the > to the left of the option to expand the dropdown. Under Ports, you should see your credit card terminal listed with the port number listed to the far right of the device in parentheses. Once you have this information, you will be able to continue setting up your device within PayGuardian Desktop.

When you click on Hardware, you will see options for various functions that your credit card terminal may utilize. For specific terminal installation setups, please contact Gateway Support to see which settings will best correspond with your terminal.

For each option you see, there is a dropdown that lists the supported devices for PayGuardian Desktop. If you choose your terminal in the dropdown, you will be activating that portion of your terminal.

Pin Pad - will activate the use of the physical Pin Pad on your device, allowing for users to press the keys found on your device for credit card processing.

Manual Card - will allow for the ability to manually process a credit card on PayGuardian Desktop without a card being presented to the terminal.

Signature Capture - will allow for the screen and stylus to be used to have your cardholder sign for their transactions.

Card Reader - will allow for cards to be swiped on the device itself.

PayGuardian also allows for the use of Printers and MICR Readers. For Printer Usage, often times that connectivity is set up with your POS system that integrates with PayGuardian. You will not need to connect in multiple places as if you do, you will have copies be printed from multiple points of your cardholder’s transaction.

After you have your device chosen for each of your top four selections, you will need to click Advanced to ensure you’re connected properly. Each section, you will need to make sure the following:

  1. Your device type is set to RS232.

  2. Your ComPort is set to what was listed in Device Manager.

Pin Pad, Manual Card, and Signature Capture are identical under Advanced. Under Card Reader, there are extra settings that appear.

  • Enable EMV is the ability to accept CHIP Inserted card payments on your terminal.

  • Enable Contactless is the ability to accept Mobile Wallet payments through your terminal.

  • EMV Contactless is the ability to accept CHIP Tapped payments on your terminal.

Once you have checked your options, click Save. Click Advanced again and click on Download Form. You will see your terminal change its screen and say “File Downloading.” Once it is done, your PayGuardian screen will show “File Successfully Downloaded” and you can click Okay. Wait until your terminal fully reboots to click Save. Clicking early will cause a faulty “Connect Failed” error. Click Save again to allow your settings to successfully save.

Importing/Exporting Settings

After you have successfully setup your first install of PayGuardian, you can Export those settings to be imported into subsequent installs of PayGuardian. Please note that for the Importing and Exporting of settings to be optimized, be sure to import settings from the same version of PayGuardian. Importing settings from an older version of PayGuardian into a newer version will remove certain functionality that may be vital to the functionality of PayGuardian.

Exporting is very simple. Click Export Settings and click Okay on the pop-up window.

When you click Okay, you will be prompted to Open or Save a settings.zip file. Save this file to your workstation and then move it to a Shared drive or a thumb drive that you can transport to every workstation for importing. Things included in the Export are:

  • Admin Users Created

  • Hardware Settings

  • Payment Server Accounts

  • Options chosen under Settings

Importing is much of the same. Before clicking Import Settings, you will need to extract the .zip file that was downloaded from Export Settings. Once it’s exported, click Import Settings and click Browse. Select the settings.exe file and your settings will fully import. Double check through the other options of PayGuardian to insure settings are carried over.

NOTE: You will need to have PayGuardian installed on the workstation before this Import process can take place, which also includes the creation of your first Admin user.

PayGuardian Uninstall

Follow the step-by-step instructions to uninstall and remove PayGuardian from the system.

  •  Open the Control Panel and select ‘Programs and Features’.

  • Highlight PayGuardian.

  • Click the Uninstall/Change button.

The PayGuardian/PayGuardianWEB Setup Wizard will launch.

Click on the “Remove” icon.

Click on the “Remove” button.

Click the “Finish” button.

Verify that PayGuardian is no longer listed under Programs and Features.

  • Leave the device attached to the computer and reboot the computer.

  • If you are still unable to connect to the terminal, contact BridgePay for assistance at http://is.bridgepaynetwork.com/ and include as much information as possible. Include screen shots with any error messages and indicate which steps above have been completed.

How to Change Comm Settings

PayGuardian primarily supports one communication mode for Ingenico integrated credit card terminals. USB-CDC mode is the recommended communication method for PayGuardian. USB-CDC mode connects using the USB port, but utilizes a COM port. USB-HID mode is currently only being used for PayGuardian Terminal Services.

 The recommended communication mode is USB-CDC (also referred to as ‘USB<>Serial Conv’ in the credit card terminal menu), which is not only faster than USB-HID mode, but is also more reliable. This setting uses a COM port on the PC or register system. For USB-CDC mode to function, the Ingenico driver must be installed on the PC or register system connected to the credit card terminal. When installing the Ingenico driver, be sure to force the COM port to COM 8 if available and not in use. COM 8 is not required, but is used for consistency. Please enter the COM Port configuration that you’ve selected when completing the PayGuardian Hardware setup.
