Westpac PayWay gateway configuration

Westpac offers several PayWay gateway options. Award Force integrates specifically with the Westpac PayWay API service, sometimes referred to by Westpac as the API module.

Getting details from PayWay

To configure the Westpac PayWay gateway, you’ll first need to gather details from the PayWay console.

1. Log in to the PayWay console at https://www.payway.com.au/core/LoginView 
2. Locate your live Merchant ID—this is an 8-digit number supplied by Westpac
3. Go to the Security page
4. Under Setup API, add the following IP addresses to the safe list
   • 52.29.0.207/32
   • 18.184.200.107/32
   • 52.59.21.18/32
5. Still under 'Setup API', retrieve your API username and password
   • These credentials are used by Award Force to connect to PayWay
   • They are different from the username and password used to access the PayWay website
6. Go to the Certificate page
7. Under 'Setup API', select PHP as the technology and click Go
8. Download the certificate file named ccapi.pem
9. Send the certificate file to Award Force support

3. Click Save
4. Submit a test entry and complete payment using a real credit card

• Remember to delete any test prices before launch.
• All listed Award Force IP addresses must be added to PayWay for the integration to function correctly.
