You'll need to contact the Authorization Center to get the code, ashley40.
Before doing so, you'll need to prepare the following:
- Your merchant account number
- Credit card number
- Card expiration date
- Purchase amount
If you can't authorize a credit card transaction electronically, you can do it through voice authorization. This way, you'll be given an authorization code.
To get in touch with the Authorization Center, you can refer to this article: QuickBooks Payments Backup Voice Authorization Procedure. This article also has additional information and detailed steps about the process.
I'll be right here if you have other questions.
