To configure and activate your profile:

  6. From the Profile Status dropdown, select Inactive and then Search:

  7. You can then locate the required profile from the Profile list and then select Promote profile to make the profile changes live:

  8. Once the profile is activated by Worldpay, the integration will be ready to accept payments.


Refunds

Starting October 14, 2022, Worldpay initiated an update to their payment gateway, resulting in a new way to issue refunds. All refunds should now be processed through your new Enterprise Business Centre dashboard.


AMEX Payments

If you'd like to show that you accept Amex payments, you'll need to manually set this up within your Worldpay account and toggle this on, as it doesn't automatically show on your Bookwhen page.

Select Edit under Show American Express?:

Then select the tick box next to Show American express as an accepted payment method on your public page? before selecting Save:

💡 Important note

  • You can only save Worldpay Cybersource online payment fees with a Merchant ID filled in.

  • Without the Merchant ID, you won't have the View payment hyperlink option on the individual booking that allows you to view the booking on WP automatically, for example:
