MID Changes

Since EPP handles the relationship with the processor, EPP will need to be included when affiliates want to open new MIDs. The following process is needed:
The Affiliate will need to alert EPP that they would like to open a new MID. They will also need to fill out the ‘Worldpay Domestic and International New MID Form’ which can be reviewed by opening the below.
2. Once returned to EPP, EPP will submit to Vantiv/Worldpay to have the MID created- this turnaround is 6-8 weeks on average from receipt of all information, but can be longer.
3. EPP will also use this same information to get an SE (MID) with American Express.
Once the MIDs are created, the internal WesTech teams will work with the affiliate to pick a date for go-live. Go live typically takes half a day- unless something goes wrong. The internal teams and steps involved are outlined below:
Team | Task |
ADVOPS | Test auth on existing MIDs to make sure connection is working |
ADVOPS | Close queues and pause posting (leave NAC queues open) |
OPIUM | Update MIDs in OPIUM |
ADVOPS | Batch files and load to OSM, allow orders to post |
EPP | Order correction |
ADVOPS | ARPCCB update (MIDs + billing org/multi line descriptor change) |
ADVOPS | Place test order on new MIDs (use real card, not test card) |
EPP | Confirms Test Order went through on correct MID |
ADVOPS | Complete Changeover Communication |
