PCI Vault Forms

Securely capture payment card data from your site using PCI Vault. PCI Vault is a vendor neutral PCI DSS compliant environment.

Data captured with this plugin will be sent to PCI Vault’s DSS compliant database directly, and will not be present on your own server. This allows you to securely capture and tokenize credit card data without being PCI DSS compliant.

How it Works

The plugin comes with a short code that loads PCI Vault’s own Payment Card Data (PCD) form, and makes all the necessary requests to the PCI Vault API in order to get the form working. You can read more on the API side of things here.

Take note that this includes 2 paid API requests: 1 when the form loads, and 1 when the data is being sent to PCI Vault.

To use this plugin, add your authorisation details, and the user/passphrase for a key, in the PCI Vault Options menu. You can then load the capture form anywhere in your site by using the pcivault_capture shortcode.

Shortcode Attributes

All valid short code attributes are imported directly into the javascript that renders the form. The security of these attributes are the responsibility of the site, and not PCI Vault.

Every attribute must be a valid Javascript expression. We recommend to use function calls that return the values you want the attributes to have, this will grant extra flexibility and avoid issues with WordPress’s sanitisation.

The attribute options are:

• success_callback: A JS function to call if the card was successfully stored.
• error_callback: A JS function to call if the card was not successfully stored.
• extra_data: Extra data to store along with the card, must be a valid JS object. This is where using a JS function call really helps.
• show_card: A true/false value on whether or not to show the card on the form.
• disable_luhn: A true/false value on whether to disable validation on all form fields.
• force_keypad: A true/false value on whether to force the user to use a randomised on-screen keypad for entering card numbers. This helps to protect you from key-loggers.
• field_options: A configuration object for specifying which of the form fields to show or validate.

For more information on these fields, please check the documentation for PCI Vault’s Payment Card Data (PCD) form.
