Introduction

The cnpAPI data format supports two types of transaction submission methods: Online and Batch. With the Online method, you submit each transaction independently and receive a response in real-time.

Typically, merchants use the Online method for Authorization transactions, as well as transactions available only via Online (for example, Void). The Batch method enables you to submit multiple transactions simultaneously in a single Session file. Worldpay recommends the Batch method for all transaction submissions except Authorizations and the transaction available only via Online.

This chapter provides an overview of the cnpAPI data format, including some basic XML coding requirements. Also discussed are the advantages of using batch processing, duplicate transaction detection, report groups, Value Added Services, and supported transaction types.
