Setting up RTTQ

In order to set up RTTQ, merchants will need the following information:

• Base URL: "https://*.ecentricpaymentgateway.co.za"
• URL suffix: "apirttq"
• URL scheme: "HTTPS"
• User authorization: "none"

Format:

• JSON
• Headers:
  • Content-Type = “application/json“
  • Accept = “application/json”
• Request type:
  GET "/query/Merchant/{{MerchantID}}/?TransactionId={{TransactionId}}&OrderNumber={{OrderNumber}}"
• Template parameter: "{{MerchantID}}" is required
• Query parameters: "{{TransactionId}}" or "{{OrderNumber}}" where either of these is required

where:
MerchantID – uniquely identifies a merchant (also known as the merchant GUID)
TransactionID - the unique transaction ID of the transaction being queried
OrderNumber - the unique order number or reference of the transaction being queried
