How to Create API Keys for Banc Card Virtual

If you do not have a Banc Card Virtual account, please contact FINSYNC Support and we can guide you through the process to establish an account and configure within FINSYNC.

FINSYNC has partnered with Banc Card to give our customers the ability to bring their existing or new Banc Card merchant accounts to FINSYNC, and start accepting charge card payments.

To accept Banc Card Virtual charge card payments, businesses must have a merchant account and access to the Banc Card Virtual gateway. The merchant account is simply a holding account where funds from your charge card payments are held before they are transferred to your business bank account.  A payment gateway is a service that verifies, accepts, or declines charge card payments allowing funds to flow into your business bank account after a payment transaction is cleared. 

To connect your Banc Card Virtual account with FINSYNC, you will need to first create two API Keys. API Keys are strings of text that are security codes (like a secure password).

Follow the steps below to create your API Security Keys:

1. Login to your Banc Card Virtual Gateway Account.
2. Click OPTIONS on the lower left menu and then click Settings.
3. Once in the Settings screen, click Security Keys.

 

You will need to create two API security "keys". These keys are strings of text, similar to a password. These keys should be specific to FINSYNC and not used for other systems.

4. To create the first key, scroll down to the Private Security Keys section and click the button Add a New Private Key.

5. In the New Private Key form, enter the following information:

  • Key Name: Enter "FINSYNC API" as the name for your Private Key.
  • User Name Associate with Key: Select your User Name from the list.
  • API Checkbox: Select the Check the API Checkbox.
  • Click the Create button.

Once the above items are complete, click the Create button.

6. The new Private Security Key will display (example below).

 

7. To create the second key, scroll down to the Public Security Keys section and click the button Add a New Public Key.

 

8. In the New Public Key form, enter the following information:

  • Key Name: Enter "FINSYNC Public" as the name for your Public Key.
  • User Name Associate with Key: Select your User Name from the list.
  • Key Permission: Select Tokenization.
  • Click the Create button.

Once the above items are complete, click the Create button.

 

9. The new Public Security Key will display (example below).
