Simple Integration Protocol (SIP) - Basic
This is the basic mode of implementation. This mode is ideal for merchants and developers who want to integrate payment in the easiest way possible. This type of transaction is referred to as Basic SIP. The merchant does NOT need an SSL certificate for this mode of payment forms.
Basic SIP Setup
To setup your purchase or donation button, supply information about the item and then the html code is generated. The code that is generated can then be pasted into your page and you can begin processing transactions.
Basic SIP Configurable Fields
The following fields can be configured under Basic SIP:
- Amount - The amount to associate with the generated button
- Invoice Number - The invoice number to associate with this button
- Description - A description to associated with the item for this button

| 1. A shopper browses the merchant’s website and selects items. When the shopper wishes to make a payment, they will click the link on the merchant’s website. | ![]() |
| 2. This will redirect the shopper to CHARGE Anywhere’s secure server where the transaction will be completed. The payment form is securely hosted by CHARGE Anywhere. The payment form can be made to pop up in a new window, or remain in the open window. | ![]() ![]() |
| 3. The shopper will fill in all of the information that the merchant requires to complete a transaction and then click submit. Merchant configures fields form claim. Information is sent directly from the shopper’s PC to ComsGate. The payment information is not passed through the merchant’s website. | |

| 5. Once the transaction is complete, CHARGE Anywhere will display a generic receipt to the shopper. If the merchant wishes, CHARGE Anywhere will display a merchant formatted receipt to the shopper. | |
| 6. If the merchant wishes to receive real time response details via an html post, CHARGE Anywhere can send the response details to the merchant in real time. The merchant can set their web site to act on the information right away. | ![]() |
