Bill Me Later (PayPal Credit)

Note: Vantiv's Bill Me Later payment method has been renamed to PayPal Credit. Note that Vantiv still uses 'billmelater' as the <custom-method>. See http://www.billmelater.com for more information.

Bill Me Later is a supported Vantiv payment method that is used for transactions during the sales order workflow. Bill Me Later can be set as a CustomCharge payment method in the Payment Methods pick list. For example, Bill Me Later can be configured as CustomChargeX, where X can be a number between 1-15.

Before you can use payment processors and their supported payment methods for transactions during the sales order workflow, configuration is required in Order Management.

The order XML is imported into Order Management with the payment tag when the payment is Captured outside of Order Management. For Bill Me Later, tokenization isn't enabled.

Example: payment tag in XML

This example shows the payment tag in XML when tokenization isn't enabled in Order Management, the custom <method-name> = billmelater and the <transaction-type> = AUTH.

Note: When tokenization isn't enabled for a Captured payment transaction, the XML is the same except that the <transaction-type> = CAPTURE.
