Authipay is a card payment gateway brand from Fiserv, a global financial services technology company. It processes card payments on the same Fiserv IPG (Internet Payment Gateway) platform as the Fiserv IPG connector, using credentials issued against your Authipay account.

Setup

Authipay credentials are not available through a self-service sign-up. Contact your Authipay representative to have an account created and to be issued the API credentials for both the test and live environments.

Connector configuration

After setting up your Authipay connector in the dashboard, configure how transactions are routed to it. Choose one of the following options:
  • Using Flow - Configure Authipay as the target connector in Flow to automatically route card transactions to this connector.
  • Using the API - Explicitly set the payment_service_id parameter to the Authipay connector ID when creating transactions. This overrides any Flow routing rules.
The connector ID can be found in the dashboard under Connections -> Configured connections.

Credentials

When setting up Authipay in the dashboard, configure the following credentials, which are obtained from Authipay:
  • API key - The API key issued for your Authipay account.
  • Secret key - The secret issued alongside the API key. Each request is signed with it, so it needs to be the secret that belongs to the API key configured above.
  • Store ID - Your Authipay store identifier, sent with every transaction.

Features

Zero-dollar authorizations

Zero-dollar (account verification) authorizations use Fiserv’s dedicated card verification API rather than a standard authorization for a zero amount. This is Fiserv’s recommended method for verifying a card without placing a charge.

3-D Secure

Authipay supports pass-through 3-D Secure, where the authentication is performed by a separate 3-D Secure provider and the resulting data is passed to Authipay with the authorization.

Integration

To accept card payments with Authipay, use one of Gr4vy’s client-side integration methods to securely collect card details. Due to PCI compliance requirements, card data should never be sent directly to your servers. You can integrate using:
  • Embed - A pre-built, customizable payment form that handles the complete payment flow
  • Secure Fields - Embed card input fields for building custom payment forms while maintaining PCI compliance
  • Mobile SDKs - Native SDKs for iOS, Android, React Native, and other platforms
These methods handle card data collection and tokenization. Once the card details are collected and tokenized, create a transaction through the Gr4vy API, which routes the payment to your configured Authipay connection based on your Flow rules or explicit payment_service_id parameter.

Testing

Authipay issues a separate set of credentials for its test environment. Use the standard Fiserv test cards to simulate transactions:
  • Visa: 4111 1111 1111 1111
  • Mastercard: 5555 5555 5555 4444
  • American Express: 3782 822463 10005
Use any future expiry date and any 3-digit security code (4 digits for American Express). For additional test scenarios, contact your Authipay representative.
