The following information explains all you’ll need to know about processing American Express® Corporate Purchasing Solution (CPS) transactions.
The Corporate Purchasing Point Mail Order Telephone Order Graphical User Interface Level 2 system (or CPP – MOTO GUI for short) performs the same transaction processing functions as a physical credit card terminal but is accessed over the Internet. When you receive an order from a customer requesting payment via an American Express® Corporate Purchasing Card, you (the supplier) can use CPP – MOTO GUI to authorise, capture and settle the order payment.
To ensure you receive payment for your transaction, three steps need to be completed:
Authorise the transaction
Capture the transaction
Settle the batch which contains the transaction.
Unless all three processes are completed, payment will not be processed.
Level 2 data is the term used for normal credit card information and a Purchase Order Number.
CPP - MOTO GUI features a series of user-friendly screens which guide you through the payment process. To access CPP - MOTO GUI simply enter your
Merchant ID, user name and password which you should already have received from your local American Express office. If you have not received these
