The following article describes the process to obtain Merchant ID and API keys for integration with the bolttech eCommerce API and plugins. Please note: the process for Production and Sandbox is the same, it's just a different server URL.

Prerequisites

In order to obtain a Merchant ID and API, you will need to have a registered merchant account with each instance. I.e. Production and Sandbox

Production: https://merchants.bolttechecommerce.com

Sandbox: https://merchants-sandbox.bolttechecommerce.com

1. Login to the Merchant Portal:

• Sandbox: https://merchants-sandbox.bolttechecommerce.com - use this for testing purposes only
• Live / Production: https://merchants.bolttechecommerce.com - use this for live. Transactions will be real.

 

2. Get your API Key

Your API key can be found under Developers > API Keys. Click the little eye button to display your API Key, and the little copy button to copy to clipboard.
