New Integration: Priority Payments MX Connect Reporting

We are pleased to announce that IRIS CRM has completed its integration of Priority Payments MX Connect Merchant Portfolio Reporting!

 

ISOs can now view MX Connect merchant information, chargebacks, and daily batches with transactions right inside their Merchant Services CRM.

 

Enabling the new integration on your site takes only a couple of easy steps.

 

Firstly, you will need to create a new API key in your MX Connect account.

Next, you’ll create an MX Connect datasource in the CRM and assign merchants to it.

Finally, you’ll add scheduled tasks to pull the MX Connect reporting data into the CRM preset intervals.

 

Let’s take a closer look at the MX Connect integration set up and a few sample reports.

 

Creating The MX Connect API Key

To create the MX Connect API key log into mxconnect.com and then:

1. Click on your username on the top right of the screen
2. Select “My Account“
3. Select “API Keys” from the menu that comes up
4. Click Add API Key to create the new key.

2. Assign merchants to the new datasource.

 

Setting Up Scheduled Tasks
