Library Overview

The Newtek Gateway Ruby Library provides an easy to use Ruby interface for running server to server processing. If you are developing your site using Ruby it is highly recommended that you use this script rather than the client side method. Not only will it provide a more consistent interface for your customers, but it will also prevent manipulation of order data.

When using this script, the basic flow will go something like: Customer enters creditcard data on merchant's server Script on merchant's server takes customer data and populates Newtek Gateway transaction (transaciton=UmTransaction.new) Merchant's server tells Newtek Gateway transaction to process (transaction.process) Newtek Gateway library sends transaction via SSL encrypted HTTP connection to Newtek Gateway for authorization Newtek Gateway library reads response from Newtek Gateway Library returns response to merchant's script Merchant's script interprets the result and displays the corresponding response to the customer

Trouble Shooting

Specified Source Key Not Found

I reviewed the newtek documentation and downloaded the test files to make sure everything will run on our web server. I cannot successfully run the file "example_Transaction.rb". It returns the following:

Please Wait One Moment While We process your card. Card Declined (Error) Reason: Specified source key not found.

The source key in the example is a dummy key. Please generate your key at newtekgateway.com when you log into your Newtek Gateway Merchant Console. You can also generate keys from the test server however remember to change the gatewayurl property.

'require' No such file to load -- newtek

If you are getting the following:

example_Transaction.rb:1:in `require': no such file to load -- newtek (LoadError) // from example_Transaction.rb:1//

Make sure that you set up a correct path to the library. If you use Rails, place the file to the lib folder, or to the same directory where you have example.rb if you use Ruby

Examples

Example: Sale

The most common transaction is a Sale. The customer's creditcard will be authorized for the amount specified and placed in the batch for settlement. Once the batch is settled, the funds will be transferred to the merchant's account. Please note: unless merchants have configured their batch to auto close, they will need to log into newtekgateway.com to close their batch.

Example: Auth Only (Queued Transaction)

The Auth Only transaction is extremely useful for companies that do not ship products right away. The gateway will authorize the charge but instead of putting the charge into the merchant's batch, the charge is placed on the Queued Transactions screen. This allows a merchant to verify that the customer's card is good and that they have the funds available. The merchant then has up to 30 days (depending on their bank) to "capture" the transaction once they are ready to ship the merchandise. There are two ways in which the transaction can be moved from the queued transactions screen to the current batch: 1) the merchant can log into secure.newtekgateway.com and go to the queued transactions screen and select capture; 2) the transaction can be captured via the Ruby API. If you are planning on capturing transactions via the Ruby API, make sure to record the value of the refnum field. (See Capture Example)

:::ruby
require 'newtek'

tran=UmTransaction.new

# Merchants Source key must be generated within the console

# Send request to sandbox server not production.  Make sure to comment or remove this line before
#  putting your code into production

end

Example: Capture (Queued Transaction)

This command allows you to capture a previously authorized charge. An example of this would be a shopping cart that uses an order management system. When a customer places an order, the transaction is authorized and then queued. The merchant then logs into the shopping cart and marks the order as "Shipped." The shopping cart then tells Newtek Gateway to capture that transaction. To capture the transaction via the API, you must have the refnum returned during the original authorization. This value should be stored on the merchant's server.
