Dashboard

In the Dashboard section of the sidebar, you can view successful (authorised) payments for various periods for your retail channels. The drop-down at the top of the sidebar signifies the retail channel you want to filter by.

Transactions

In the Transaction section of the sidebar, you can view all transactions and their details, including their status, provider, and payment method. You can search the transactions using various details associated with the transaction.

Issue a Refund

To issue a refund in the BR-DGE Portal, click on a particular transaction and click the Refund button.
The Refund button functionality is only available for those with admin status, it will be unusable for those of other access types or if the transaction is already refunded, pending or not captured.

Reporting

In the Reporting section of the sidebar, you can generate reports on your transactions per retail channel. The drop-down at the top of the sidebar signifies the retail channel you want to report. When you make a report it will add other details, for example, an alternative payment method (APM)-initiated flag and PSP Transaction ID.

Smart Routing

In the Smart Routing section of the sidebar, you can set rules to direct your transactions to the appropriate payment processor. Smart routing allows you to decide how your payments are routed. Helping you increase the approval rate of your transactions, and giving you more control over your payments.

Processor Priority

In the Processor Priority tab of Smart Routing, you can use drag-and-drop functionality to prioritise payment processors per retail channel. The drop-down at the top of the sidebar signifies the retail channel you want to set rules for.

BIN Metadata

In the BIN Metadata tab of Smart Routing, you can configure and combine multiple trigger conditions in order to route payments to different payment processors. The drop-down at the top of the sidebar signifies the retail channel you want to set rules for.

A BIN Metadata rule will be comprised of one, or a combination of, the following trigger conditions.

  • Issuer
  • Network
  • Funding source
  • Country
  • Currency

When you toggle the rules off, it will hide and also remove the current rules. You will need to set the rules each time you toggle the rules on.

📘

You can add one or more matches to each trigger condition, e.g. the Currency trigger could be matched against both GBP & EUR meaning the payment will be routed by this rule when either of those currencies is returned in the BIN metadata

Additional Routing

You can only use one type of Additional Routing per retail channel. This means you have to decide whether to use Volume or Monetary routing with your Smart Routing rules, as detailed below.

Volume

In the Volume tab of Smart Routing, you can input percentages per payment processors to divide up the flow of your transactions. These are per retail channel and all the inputted percentages across your PSPs must add up to 100%. The drop-down at the top of the sidebar signifies the retail channel you want to set rules for.

When you toggle the rules off, it will hide and also remove the current rules. You will need to set the rules each time you toggle the rules on. If you set a percentage to 0, this will remove the PSP, to get it back you can reset the available PSPs by resetting the toggle.

Monetary

In the Monetary tab of Smart Routing, you can configure different Amounts and Currencies to be routed to your different payment processors.

When you toggle the rules off, it will hide and also remove the current rules. You will need to set the rules each time you toggle the rules on.

Configuration

API Keys

In the BR-DGE API Keys section of Configuration, you can create, revoke or rotate API Keys.

When you click the Create Key button, you can create both Client Keys and Server Keys for the chosen retail channel and describe the key. The drop-down at the top of the sidebar signifies the retail channel you want to configure API Keys for.

📘

When you create a new API Key you will be shown it once, we recommend that you copy and save it securely straight away.

For any created keys, you can click the Revoke button to revoke access.
