Accept Credit Card Payments for Tickets Through TouchNet

Connecting a credit card processor to your event allows your registrants to pay for tickets directly from their mobile device or computer. With Accelevents, you can quickly and easily connect your TouchNet account through your Accelevents Admin Console to be able to collect credit card payment through your checkout page.

Before You Begin

Before connecting the payment processor, you must reach out your TouchNet CSM to provide you your TouchNet Server Endpoint, UPay Site ID, UPay Site Server Endpoint.

  • Initiate the request for an Accelevents partner connecting through your TouchNet CSM

  • TouchNet launches a partner connection project internally. Expected timeline: Plan for 4–6 weeks, though it may complete faster.

  • Receive the Partner Data Gathering Guide from TouchNet.The guide includes:

    • T-Link URL

    • uPay URL

    • uPay Site ID

    • Values for TEST and PRODUCTION environment

    • Note: API username and password do not change across clients.

  • Connect the TouchNet and Accelevents integration

Important Notes:

  • Refunds can be done directly in Accelevents with TouchNet connected.

  • This will work only for straight full payments from the checkout step of your registration page.

  • It will not work for the following:

    • Ticket Exchange

    • Approval Tickets

    • Pay-Later Tickets

    • Deposit Tickets

    • Waitlist Tickets

    • Donations made on the Landing Page

    • Fundraising (Auction/Raffle/Bids)

    • Checkout through the Admin Console

    • Checkout through the Staff Portal

    • Checkout through the Ticket Widget

Connect TouchNet Through The Admin Console

  • Go to Settings > Payment Processing from your admin console

  • Click Connect with TouchNet

  • Enter the following information:

    • TouchNet Server Endpoint

    • UPay Site ID

    • UPay Site Server Endpoint

Event Billing ID and Metadata Fields

The Event Billing ID and Metadata fields will appear after connecting the payment processor. If you have billing codes within your organization, you can add them to that field, and they will appear in the transaction within your payment processor.

These will also appear as columns in the All Transactions Report that you can download from the Enterprise / White Label Dashboard.

Purchase Through Touchnet

When registrants get to the checkout page and click the Confirm Purchase button, they will be redirected to the TouchNet payment form where they can enter their credit card information and other required details.
