Reporting Criteria (RC)

Reporting Criteria is a logical identifier that allows transactions to be subdivided and grouped within the same MID for reporting and reconciliation purposes.

While an MID primarily represents a currency context and a wide range of processing configurations, reporting criteria enable additional segmentation within that MID without creating new MIDs.

Reporting criteria inherit the default configuration of the MID and may apply further configuration refinements, allowing transactions to be processed under tailored conditions without duplicating or redefining the MID itself.

Use of this feature requires prior agreement with PaysafeCard. Any non‑agreed values will cause the payment to be rejected.
