Gateways

A payment gateway is what takes the credit card information and changes that into money in your bank account. Dinero currently supports Authorize.Net and has some support for Braintree Payments.

In order to use dinero, you must first configure a gateway. The basic configuration looks like:

import dinero

dinero.configure({
    'foo': {
        'type': 'XXX',
        'default': True,
        # ...
    },
})

where foo is a reference name for you to remember. The type is the class that implements the gateway. Dinero currently has the following gateway types:

• dinero.gateways.AuthorizeNet
• dinero.gateways.Braintree (incomplete implementation)

The gateway marked default will be used by default when creating transactions.

class dinero.gateways.AuthorizeNet

The Authorize.Net gateway requires the following packages.

• requests
• lxml

In order to configure the Authorize.Net gateway, you need the Login ID and the Transaction Key.

import dinero

dinero.configure({
    'foo': {
        'type': 'dinero.gateways.AuthorizeNet',
        'default': True,
        'login_id': 'XXX',
        'transaction_key': 'XXX',
    },
})
