Properties Methods Events Configuration Settings
The ECheck component is used to process Electronic Check (ACH) transactions through Internet Payment services such as the Authorize.Net eCheck.Net service.
NOTE: What follows is a very short description of the component interfaces. For more information, please consult the help files that come with the respective package.
The ECheck component allows you to use multiple Internet Payment Gateways through one interface and one component. This allows for easy migration from one gateway to another, as well as quick integration into applications or web services.
The ECheck component allows your website to securely process electronic checks without the need to redirect to a third-party site. All transactions are accomplished through a secure HTTPS Post to any supported gateway. The secure response is received and then stored in the component's response properties. Any web site on a standard HTTP server or any stand-alone application can process transactions without the need for a secure server or third-party intervention.
The first thing you must do is select one of the gateways supported by the ECheck component, and set up an account with that gateway vendor. Once you have an account set up with a valid (or test) login Id and password, you can use the ECheck component.
To begin, set the Gateway property to the gateway you wish to use. If this gateway supports an alternate URL to send test transactions to, set the GatewayURL at this time.
Next, set the MerchantLogin (and for some gateways the MerchantPassword). These are supplied by your gateway vendor when you set up an account.
Now you are ready to process transactions. Not all gateways process ACH or eCheck transactions the same way. While all gateways require a bank routing and account number, some require additional information such as a driver's license number, bank name, or the account type (checking or savings). The gateways and their required properties are listed in the Gateway property.
Once all your properties are set, simply call the Authorize method. If your gateway supports it, you may also credit bank accounts with the Credit method.
The following gateways are supported by the ECheck component:

Method List The following is the full list of the methods of the component with short descriptions. Click on the links for complete descriptions. AddSpecialField Adds a special field name and the corresponding value. Authorize Initiates an authorization request transaction. Config Sets or retrieves a component configuration setting. Credit Credits a previous ACH transaction. Interrupt Interrupts the current action. ResetData Clears all properties to their default values. ResetSpecialFields Resets all special fields to the default settings. Event List The following is the full list of the events fired by the component with short descriptions. Click on the links for complete descriptions. Error Information about errors during data delivery. SSLServerAuthentication Fired after the server presents its certificate to the client. SSLStatus Shows the progress of the secure connection. Configuration Settings The following is a list of configuration settings for the component with short descriptions. Click on the links for complete descriptions. AbsoluteTimeout Determines whether timeouts are inactivity timeouts or absolute timeouts. CodePage The system code page used for Unicode to Multibyte translations (Windows/COM only). FirewallData Used to send extra data to the firewall. FirewallListener If true, the component binds to a SOCKS firewall as a server (IPPort only). HTTPVersion The version of HTTP used by the component IfModifiedSince A date determining the maximum age of the desired document. InBufferSize The size in bytes of the incoming queue of the socket. KeepAlive Determines whether the HTTP connection is closed after the completion of the request. MaxLineLength The maximum amount of data to accumulate when no EOL is found. MaxTransferredData The maximum number of incoming bytes to be stored by the component. OpenSSLCADir The path to a directory containing CA certificates. OpenSSLCAFile Name of the file containing the list of CA's trusted by your application. OpenSSLCipherList A string that controls the ciphers to be used by SSL. OpenSSLPrngSeedData The data to seed the pseudo random number generator(PRNG). OutBufferSize The size in bytes of the outgoing queue of the socket. ProxyAuthorization The authorization string to be sent to the proxy server. ProxyPassword A password if Basic authentication is to be used for the proxy. ProxyPort Port for the proxy server (default 80). ProxyServer Name or IP address of a proxy server (optional). ProxyUser A user name if Basic authentication is to be used for the proxy. SSLCipherStrength The minimum cipher strength used for bulk encryption. SSLEnabledProtocols Used to enable/disable the supported security protocols. SSLProvider The name of the security provider to use. SSLSecurityFlags Flags that control certificate verification SocketHandle The handle of the main socket used by the component. UseWinInet If set, the WinInet API is used for retrieving the URL UseWinInetCookies Controls whether to send and accept cookies when making http requests through WinInet UserAgent Information about the user agent (browser). WinsockInfo Identifying information about the loaded Winsock stack (Windows only) WinsockLoaded Loads and unloads Winsock on demand (Windows only) WinsockMaxDatagramSize Size in bytes of the largest UDP datagram that can be sent or received (Windows only) WinsockMaxSockets Maximum number of sockets available to a single process (Windows only) WinsockPath The path to the Winsock DLL used (Windows only) WinsockStatus The status of the Winsock stack (Windows only)
