Request Fields
Helcim.js will intercept your form data based on the respective HTML input elements field ID value, then send that information as a payload to the Helcim API to process either a Verify, Pre-Auth, or Purchase transaction depending on the selection in your Helcim.js configuration.
Below is a list of all fields that can be set as part of a Helcim.js implementation to be included in that request.
IMPORTANT
HTML input fields used to collect sensitive credit card information should not have an HTML field name, only an HTML field
id.This will allow the JavaScript to retrieve the values (using getElementById), but prevents the fields from being submitted back to the merchant server. Helcim.js will also attempt to mask sensitive data before submitting form.
