Merchant and Transaction Values

I've been reviewing the docs for the VTC Customer Rules API as my team is about to implement several of these features and I'm seeing some inconsistencies depending on where I look for the full list of the Transaction Controls values (the values beginning with TCT_) and the Merchant Control values (the values beginning with MCT_). In some areas, for instance, I'm seeing "TCT_FUNDS_TRANSFER" as an available TCT value (https://community.developer.visa.com/t5/Product-Docs-Reference-Data/VTC-Definition-of-transaction-co...)  and other areas it's missing. I'm also seeing TCT_PURCHASE_RETURN and TCT_OCT in some areas but missing in others. Is there somewhere I can look that has the official full list of both the TCT and MCT values?

Hi @tbrown

 

Please refer to the Visa Transaction Controls API Reference document which is linked for download at the top of the VTC API's API Reference tab.

 

Hope this helps!

 

Thanks,

Re: Merchant and Transaction Values

Hey Illana,

 

We did reference this document as well as the API specs themselves. For instance, the document contains the following transaction type values:

  • "TCT_AUTO_PAY"
  • "TCT_BRICK_AND_MORTAR"
  • "TCT_CROSS_BORDER"
  • "TCT_E_COMMERCE"
  • "TCT_CONTACTLESS"

Whereas the API spec webpage has the following:

  • "TCT_ATM_WITHDRAW"
  • "TCT_AUTO_PAY"
  • "TCT_BRICK_AND_MORTAR"
  • "TCT_CROSS_BORDER"
  • "TCT_E_COMMERCE"
  • "TCT_CONTACTLESS"
  • "TCT_PURCHASE_RETURN"
  • "TCT_OCT"

I've also seen references to TCT_FUNDS_TRANSFER in other places including responses to forum questions. Just trying to make sure we have the full range of what these values could be because we ultimately localize them
