    Introduction

    RTS Ticketing has created an open interface to accommodate third party access to our sales engine. In order to allow access, we have created an HTTPS server that accepts XML packets.

    Credit card payments are processed either through the POS locations’ credit card processing account, or through your own processing account. So a separate shopping cart or credit card processing account is not needed, but you have the option of building your own.

    Purchased tickets can be redeemed at the locations POS at for actual tickets. These tickets can be redeemed using any of three methods:

    1. The credit card that was used to purchase the tickets
    2. The receipt number assigned to the purchase
    3. The bar code that is provided by the purchase response packet.


    Note: Some locations do not have bar code readers or the bar code may be illegible when printed on a low-quality printer. It is strongly suggested that the confirmation number is also printed with the bar code.

    Communication

    Communications with the locations POS server are done using a HTTPS Post of an XML packet. Basic authentication is performed for each Post.

    The URL for posting data is:
    https://<Theatre RTN Number>.formovietickets.com:<port>/Data.ASP

    Note: The listening port is 2235 (not the default web server port 80)

    Test Server Information

    It is a good idea to develop your application against a test server, and not against a live theatre server. Below is the information for the RTS Test Servers:

    !! NOTE: These are not web pages, they cannot be viewed in a browser !!

    WorldPay Non-E2E Server (also known as Mercury Classic Server):
    The endpoint URL is: https://5.formovietickets.com:2235/Data.ASP

    WorldPay E2E Server (also known as Mercury EMV Server):
    The endpoint URL is: https://5.formovietickets.com:2245/Data.ASP

    Heartland Secure Server:
    The endpoint URL is: https://5.formovietickets.com:2255/Data.ASP

    TSYS Secure Server:
    The endpoint URL is: https://5.formovietickets.com:2265/Data.ASP

    The credentials for these servers are:

    Schedule and Selling Username: test
    Schedule and Selling Password: test

    Selling - Fees and Adjustments

    The Open Interface API currently allows for 2 different types of Fees, and an Adjustment.

    The <TicketFee> item is a single charge added to the transaction.

    The <TransactionFee> item is a single charge added to the transaction.

    The <Adjust> item is an adjustment used to modify the charge amount. If you sell 3 tickets with -$1 in this item, it will deduct $1 from your transaction amount. This amount can be positive or negative, depending on how you wish to adjust the transaction.

    All three of these items are placed inside the <Fees> tags inside the purchase packet, see page 13 for a sample packet. These items can be used in any purchase packet: tickets, items, gift cards, etc.

    Ticket Purchasing – Reverse Transaction

    Note: Only use this call if you are processing the credit card transactions outside of the point-of-sale system!

    Allows for reversal of a sale transaction by ThirdPartyID, in the event that you never received a response with a PickupNumber. It will be allowed as long as the tickets from the sale have not already been redeemed, and the show is still scheduled. Should be used in conjunction with “VerifyTransaction” to establish the state of the sale.

    WorldPay E2E - Credit Card Payment Overview

    The introduction of End-to-End Encryption to the credit card processing system has changed the way credit cards are processed by the software. Instead of the software processing the transaction, it is processed directly at the processor via a HostedCheckout system. This means the customer needs to be redirected to a secure credit card entry page that is provided by the credit card processing company.

    To summarize the process:
    1. A request is sent into the software to create a payment at the processor. This request contains the charge amount to authorize and 2 URLs: a ProcessCompleteUrl, and a ReturnUrl. Be sure to URL Encode your URLs.

    2. The software will return a create payment response which indicates if the create was successful, a TransactionId, a RedirectURL to send the customer to for credit card information entry, and the PostData to send into the processor page you redirect the customer to. If the create was unsuccessful there will be an ErrorMsg present to indicate the issue.

    3. The customer will then need to be redirected to the RedirectURL in the create payment response, posting in the PostData in the create payment response. If the customer completes the process the processor will redirect back to the ProcessCompleteURL from step 1, which will contain the processor response in the PostData. If the customer cancels the process, the processor will redirect back to the ReturnURL.

    4. If the payment was successful, a Buy request is then sent back to the software with the TransactionId, ProcessCompletePostData included in the Payment node. The software will then validate the payment and return either a failure or a success.

    It is important to note that you could repeat steps 1 – 3 for multiple credit cards if needed, then simply include multiple Payment nodes in step 4. Be sure to authorize each payment for only the amount needed, not the total transaction amount.

    Heartland Secure - Credit Card Payment Overview

    Heartland Secure utilizes JavaScript to replace <div> elements in your payment form with secure hosted iframe fields, to ensure that no card data passes through your server (or the RTS server).

    The customer enters their card data into these iframe fields and submits to Heartland. They will issue a single-use token and some safe card information (masked card number, card type, card last 4) returning it as JSON to the script. This data is then posted to your server via the form action on the page.

    When attempting the sale, the single-use token and the safe card data is submitted in the buy request to RTS in the <Payment> node. We will validate the credit account data and either proceed with the sale, or return an error indicating the issue with the card.


    A sample payment page can be found here: http://www.readyticket.net/download/heartland_hc_example.html

    Be sure to read the comments in the sample payment page for additional information!

    The script utilizes a Public Key, which will change for each RTS location. You will need to contact RTS to get this key when needed, you can email the request to: support@rts-solutions.com. Be sure to include the location name and address in the request.


    Below is sample of the post data from the form: billingStreet=6860+Dallas+Pkwy&billingZip=75024&paymentReference=supt_htOWF0W14NdVKt6DAHi1HbM3&maskedCard=464069***4998&cardLast4=4998&cardType=visa


    Below is a sample <Payment> node for a Heartland Secure buy request:

    <Payment>
        <Type>CreditCard</Type>
        <SingleUseToken>supt_ycyDB65WX8B2TCWvaSOGIz4j</SingleUseToken>
        <MaskedCardNumber>464069***4998</MaskedCardNumber>
        <CardType>visa</CardType>
        <CardLast4>4998</CardLast4>
        <ChargeAmount>91.01</ChargeAmount>
        <BillingStreet>6860 Dallas Pkwy</BillingStreet>
        <BillingZip>75024</BillingZip>
    </Payment>
     
    

    The <SingleUseToken>, <MaskedCardNumber>, <CardType>, <CardLast4>, <BillingStreet>, and <BillingZip> values come from the data returned by the Heartland JavaScript.


    Note: In the case that both Address and Zip do not match the account, you will receive a DO NOT HONOR message from Heartland's Gateway

    Ticket Purchasing (3rd Party Credit Card Processing / TSYS - E2E)

    1. Integrator sends in a CreatePayment request, provides their complete url and cancel URL:

     
    <Request>
        <Version>1</Version>
        <Command>CreatePayment</Command>
        <Data>
            <Packet>
                <ChargeAmount>5</ChargeAmount>
                <CustomerEmail></CustomerEmail>
                <CustomerName></CustomerName>
                <StreetAddress></StreetAddress>
                <ZipCode></ZipCode>
                <ProcessCompleteUrl>http%3A%2F%2F809261.formovietickets.com%3A2265%2FTSYS.asp%3FreqType%3DCOMPLETE</ProcessCompleteUrl>
                <ReturnUrl>http%3A%2F%2F890261.formovietickets.com%3A2265%2FTSYS.asp%3FreqType%3DCANCEL</ReturnUrl>
            </Packet>
        </Data>
    </Request>
      
    

    2. RTS creates a transactionID, stores the request data.

    3. RTS returns transactionID, redirectUrl

     
    <Response>
        <Version>1</Version>
        <Packet>
            <CreatePayment>
                <Worked>1</Worked>
                <TransactionId>e9fb3f66-4dc8-4745-b354-b74900e32010</TransactionId>
                <RedirectUrl>https%3a%2f%2f809261.formovietickets.com%3a2265%2fTSYS.ASP%3freqType%3dREDIRECT%26transactionId%3de9fb3f66-4dc8-4745-b354-b74900e32010</RedirectUrl>
            </CreatePayment>
        </Packet>
    </Response>
      
    

    4. Integrator redirects customer to the redirectUrl, which provides the stand-alone payment page

     a. Continue - RTS attempts payment, posting return data to the integrators ProcessCompleteURL
     b. Cancel - RTS redirects the customer to the integrators ReturnURL
    

    5. Integrator receives response based on status of credit card processing:

     a. if good sale, send back the masked card number, cardlast4, cardtype, transactionid, and paymentid
    POST Data: maskedCardNumber=<appropriate_masked_card_num>&cardLastFour=<appropriate_card_last_four>&cardType=<appropriate_card_type>&transactionId=<appropriate_transactionid>&paymentId=<appropriate_paymentid>
    b. if bad cardverification or sale, send back the appropriate response

    6. If integrator wants to continue with transaction, posts in the appropriate buy request, with the <payment> node as follows:

     
    <Payment>
        <Type>CreditCard</Type>
        <TransactionId></TransactionId>
        <PaymentId></PaymentId>
        <ChargeAmount></ChargeAmount>
    </Payment>
      
    


    7. RTS attempts to complete the transaction, and returns the appropriate response

    Ticket Purchasing (3rd Party Credit Card Processing / TSYS - Non E2E)

    This method of ticketing purchasing is to be used when the RTS software is not handling anything in the credit card processing chain.

    Ticket Purchase (3rd Party) – Sample Request – PerformanceID

    Note: The key differences between a 3rd party buy and a normal buy is the use of the <Adjust> node inside <Fees> to offset the amount charged by the 3rd party, and the <ChargeAmount> being zero.

    To sell multiple tickets in the same transaction, duplicate the <Ticket> node for each type and specify the amount of each ticket.

    For example, to sell 3 tickets of 2 different types, your <Tickets> node would look like:

    <Tickets>
        <Ticket>
            <Amount>2</Amount>
            <TypeCode>1|1</TypeCode>
        </Ticket>
        <Ticket>
            <Amount>1</Amount>
            <TypeCode>1|2</TypeCode>
        </Ticket>
    </Tickets> 
     
    

    To accept multiple payment types in the same transaction, duplicate the <Payment> node for each type of payment, and specify the appropriate information.

    Seating Charts

    All RTS layouts are built around the grid size provided in the <GridRef> node. Using these values in conjunction with your own known grid values, you can determine the ratio needed to convert each seat xpos, ypos, width, and height, to your own values, for example:

    Your grid width divided by our grid width = your X ratio
    Your grid height divided by our grid height = your Y ratio
    Our Xpos multiplied by X ratio = your Xpos
    Our Ypos multiplied by Y ratio = your Ypos
    Our Width multiplied by X ratio = your width
    Our Height multiplied by Y ration = your height

    !! NOTE: This call has been slightly modified to support locations that use custom seat pricing, these are locations that have different prices on specific seats in an auditorium. Due to this pricing not being known until the seat selection has been made, this call will return the pricing group for each seat, and a list of pricing groups and tickets. In order to access this data, this call should be made using the SCHEDULE credentials, not the SELLING credentials. Making this call with the selling credentials will not return any pricing data. !!
