Mark a Merchant Account as Default

If your organization uses multiple merchant accounts, you must mark a default to use for credit card authorization and for card-present transactions (such as those swiped for a Daily Sales order.)

Warning: If you don't mark a merchant account as the default, users can't save payments when they select to authorize payments by credit card with the Blackbaud Payment Service. If necessary, users can select different merchant accounts for credit card processing. For more information, see Add a Credit Card Processing Process.

1. From Revenue, select Blackbaud Payment Service merchant accounts under Configuration.

2. Under Merchant accounts, select the account to mark as the default for authorization.

3. Select Default, Mark as default authorization account.

4. Select the same account or a different account to mark as the default for card-present transactions.

5. Select Default, Mark as default card present account.
