Overview
The Cardknox API enables developers to process transactions via the Cardknox gateway. The API uses simple commands to make integrating with Cardknox a seamless experience.
Cardknox uses the same url for both sandbox and live accounts and they are differentiated only by the authentication key that is used. Cardknox calls this xKey. Request a sandbox account.
The API supports Credit Card, Check (ACH), EBT, Gift Card and Fraud Protection transactions. A web-based portal is available to search transactions, run reports, as well as other account features.
Cardknox also offers emulators for many popular gateways. Emulation enables developers to simply change the endpoint URL for systems currently integrated with 3rd-party gateways and use the existing commands supplied by those gateways, without the need for additional programming. Request an emulation account.
iFields
Cardknox’s iFields offers a secure solution for the client-side application, which significantly simplifies the PCI burden. It does so by hosting the sensitive payment fields (via iframes) so the cardholders’ sensitive payment information goes directly to our PCI DSS validated servers, while allowing you to retain full control of the look and feel of the payment flow. Using our iFields solution in conjunction with our API will allow you full flexibility while staying out of PCI scope. Click here to learn more about iFields.
Credentials
When you sign up for a Cardknox account, you will receive a sandbox xKey which is used to identify your account and enable you to perform test transactions. A separate xKey will be sent for your live account.
When sending a transaction, your Cardknox credentials xKey, name of your software xSoftwareName, version of your software xSoftwareVersion and Cardknox API version xVersion is required on each request.
Endpoints
Below are the endpoints URLs to send transactions to Cardknox:
URL: https://x1.cardknox.com/gateway
Alternate URL: https://b1.cardknox.com/gateway
We now support both JSON and XML via the following URLs:
JSON: https://x1.cardknox.com/gatewayjson
XML: https://x1.cardknox.com/gatewayxml
Cardknox Gateway Emulators
Authorize.net (AIM)
Endpoint URL: https://x1.cardknox.com/authorize
In order to use our authorize.net emulator, set the endpoint URL to https://x1.cardknox.com/authorize Use your Cardknox key as the login ID and transaction key.

Request Method
Method:POST
Cardknox Gateway requires POST method to be used for enhanced security. We do not support the GET method.
Tokenization
Tokenization is the process of replacing sensitive payment data with a non-sensitive algorithm-generated string called a token. Each time a card or bank account number is sent with a transaction, the Cardknox response will include a token represented by xToken. As a merchant’s PCI-compliance scope is greatly increased when storing sensitive data, best-practice is to store the token in your database instead of the sensitive data and use the token for follow-up transactions. With this approach, if a data breach occurs on your local system, sensitive data will not be at risk.
When a token is sent along with a transaction, Cardknox references the payment information on our servers associated with that token, and processes the transaction. Each time a transaction is processed, a new token will be returned.
You can reuse the original token multiple times. However, you should use the new returned token in the following scenarios:
- If the card has a new expiration date
- If a response flag indicates that the card was updated
A token only stores the data sent with a transaction that is necessary to process future transactions. It does not store general customer information such as billing and contact information.
As an example, for a credit card transaction, only the credit card number, expiration date, street address and zip code (which can be required for Address Verification System (AVS) validation) are stored with token.
Note: The 3 or 4 digit CVV number is never stored on Cardknox servers as per PCI regulations, and in extension, is not associated with tokens. CVV data is only used when processing initial transactions where the cardholder is generating the transaction with their physical card in hand.
To generate a token for a payment method without processing a transaction, use the save command. For credit card transaction cc:save. For check transactions, check:save.
The documentation below indicates which transaction types support tokenization.
Batches
Each day, all captured transactions are added to a batch file. Once the batch cutoff time is reached (determined by the processing bank), Cardknox automatically “batches out”, which sends the related transactions to the bank for settlement. A batch report is available in the Cardknox portal.

CREDIT CARD
Sale
xCommand = cc:Sale
The Sale command is a combination of an authorization and capture and intended when fulfilling an order right away. For transactions that are not fulfilled right away, use the authonly command initially and use the capture command to complete the sale.
The card to be charged can be communicated with 4 different approaches: xCardNum + xExp OR xMagstripe OR xToken OR SUT. Only one of these combinations can be used. Depending on a software or website’s security settings, cc:sale may also require xCVV, xStreet, or xZip and their related values.

AuthOnly
xCommand = cc:AuthOnly
The AuthOnly command authorizes an amount on a cardholder’s account and places a hold on the available credit for that amount, but does not submit the charge for settlement. AuthOnly is used to reserve funds from a cardholder’s credit limit for a sale that is not ready to be processed. AuthOnly is commonly used when an order is placed on a website prior to the order being shipped or when a customer makes a hotel or car rental reservation. If the authorization amount exceeds the cardholder’s available credit, a rejected response will be returned. When successful, the authorization number is returned as RefNum and can be used to reference the authorization for a follow-up transaction. The funds will remain held until the authorization is either captured, voided, or expires. To settle an AuthOnly transaction and complete the sale, use the capture command. If an AuthOnly transaction is captured after 24 hours, it may be subject to a higher processing rate by the acquiring bank.
An AuthOnly hold only reduces the cardholder’s credit limit, but will not appear as a charge on their account. If the authorization will not be converted to a charge, Void Release can be used to release the hold prior to the expiration. The expiration timeframe varies by issuer, but is typically 7-30 days for credit cards and 3-5 days for debit cards.

FAQ
• How many days does it take to get the ACH status?
It typically takes between 1 – 3 days
• How can we get the ACH status?
There are a few ways to get status. Email, Webhook, Cardknox Portal, or you pull a report using our reporting API.
• What verbiage comes back from the ACH status?
In Cardknox you should get back the following status codes xStatus=16 “settled” , xStatus=14 “chargeback”, xStatus=0 “pending” . The daily emails may contain some more info.
• Can we get back a token when using the check MICR?
Cardknox only returns tokens on check transactions where it contains the routing and account number. When only check images and MICR were submitted the token is not returned since they can’t be reused on subsequent transactions.
