2. Enter API Credentials
Log into the Merchant Portal and navigate to Websites, then click on the website you want to connect. Click on Integration where you will find your API key.
Paste the key into the API Key field in the Cost+ Library configuration page and click Save.
[!TIP] For some hosting environments, enable the cURL CA bundle option during configuration to avoid SSL certificate issues.
3. Enable Payment Methods
After saving your API key, upload each payment method module separately via Upload a module.
Return to Improve > Module Manager, click Upload a module again, and upload each ZIP file for the payment methods you want to enable (e.g. Credit Card, MobilePay, Swish).
[!WARNING] Only activate the payment methods you have been approved for and received confirmation for.
Payment modules will either have a Configure option (if additional setup is needed) or just an Enable/Disable toggle.
4. Final Steps and Testing
- Double-check all enabled payment methods
- Place a few test transactions -- both successful and failed -- to ensure everything flows smoothly
- Configure advanced behavior such as manual vs. auto-capture depending on your fulfillment process
