<li>Enable Test Mode – controls whether transactions are sent to the Test/Sandbox or the Live/Production Beyond Pay Gateway environment and which type of API keys are expected; defaults to Live</li>
<li>PublicKey, PrivateKey, Username, Password, MerchantCode, and MerchantAccountCode – these are the credentials by which the plugin authenticates to the Beyond Pay Gateway in order to process payments; for Test Mode, you can <a href="https://forms.office.com/pages/responsepage.aspx?id=Q9V6UxGq3USJSkGsz2Jk7yRG7q939HJFkFXKp4lfZo1UMVBQWVNYSFBBNzJEV1k4Uko5WUU2NllBSCQlQCN0PWcu" rel="nofollow ugc">request Beyond Pay Gateway sandbox API keys</a> while live credentials are provided by Beyond once the merchant processing account is approved</li>
<li>Transaction Mode – controls how authorizations and payment captures are managed</li>

Set to Level III to ensure you always qualify for the best rates on eligible corporate purchasing cards.

<li>Advanced Styling – allows for customized styling of the Beyond Pay card collection iframe via CSS</li>
</ul>
