Does Instant Account Verification work for UK bank accounts yet? - yodlee

When I looked at IAV last year it only worked in the USA. Is this feature live in the UK yet or is there a date for when it will work with British bank accounts?

IAV is not available for UK sites for now and there is no specific date when it will be available.

Is the REST API active in Italy for direct payment with credit card?

I just wanted to know if I can use the REST API to do a direct payment with credit card with an Italian account. I couldn't find any information about.
Thanks
Currently REST API with the Credit card Payments is only available for US and UK merchants . You can check the link below for more information :

So, Italian merchants can accept only the PayPal payments at this time.

Migrate Google Merchant account to different country

Slovakia has been added recently to list of supported Merchant countries for Google Play.
I have an account in Czech Republic (CZK) paired with Merchant Account with active paid and free apps and want to change the country to Slovakia (EUR) - mostly because i of the fees related to money transfers from a different currency (CZK to EUR) on my business account.
I have been searching on Google but found nothing except for transferring all my apps to new developer account. I'm afraid that this will hurt my play store search positions and i won't be able to transfer the Google Play Services data (LeaderBoards, Achievements)
Also i want to keep the package names.
Had someone done this? How should i proceed?
June 2017 update:
Apps with subscriptions can now be transferred!!!
The original answer:
This is a complete answer I got from Google:
Hi,
Thanks for contacting Google Play Developer Support.
I understand you'd like to change the country associated with your Google Payments Merchant account. Once your Google Payments Merchant account has been created, it's not possible to change the country associated with that account. Instead, I can cancel and refund your existing developer account and transfer your apps to a new developer account that has the appropriate merchant country details.
To get started with this process:
Edit your current developer account name. If you'd like to continue to use your developer name with the new account, you’ll need to change your current name in order to free it up for the new account. For example, name the old account “xxx-OLD,” so you can use "xxx" in your new account. Make sure you save your settings.
Create a second Google Account (with a new, different email address). After you've created the new account, you will need to configure Google Payments with a billing address corresponding to your preferred merchant country.
After you've registered the newly created Google Play Developer Console account, create a new Google Payments Merchant account from the Developer Console. Pay special attention to the country listed for your legal business address. You may need to adjust your Google Payments settings if you haven't configured your billing address properly.
Use this online checklist to submit your app transfer request.
Please note however at this time, an app transfer can't be completed with in-app subscriptions currently or previously configured for your app; this includes subscriptions that do not have subscribers, or those apps which have had all subscriptions canceled.
I understand this limitation can be frustrating, and I apologize that we don't currently have a more seamless way to transfer these applications across accounts. We're actively working with our teams to design a better experience for developers with apps using in-app subscriptions, though we do not currently have an ETA.
I appreciate your understanding, and your dedicated support of Google Play.
Regards,
xxxxx
Google Play Developer Support
The country associated with your Google Play Developer account can't be changed. However, you can create a new account that uses a different country and transfer your apps to your new account.
To transfer apps to a new account, you'll need to prepare some account information. To learn what information you need and to send your request, go to the Google's app transfer checklist.

How to enable to enable live credentials for REST API direct Credit Card Payments

I seem to be unable to enable Live credentials to accept direct credit card payments for Paypal REST API. Here is what I do:
Log into http://developer.paypal.com
Go to application tab and click on my application name
In the ACCEPT PAYMENTS section it shows:
Accept credit cards directly Enabled for test only How to enable live credentials?
I click on 'How to enable live credentials' link, which further opens up the following:
Important Live credentials are disabled for this feature. To enable
direct credit card processing, please provide addition information
about yourself and your business.
To meet regulatory requirements, we need to collect your business details. This may include:
U.S Business owner Social Security Number, date of birth, and other personal details.
U.S Business Tax ID (EIN, ITIN) and other business information.
Get started
I click on the 'Get Started' Link and am only taken back to the My APP section of the Application tab.
After step 4 I went to go about trying to find a direct link to how to get the process started and came up with the following:
Followed the the following instructions:
https://developer.paypal.com/webapps/developer/docs/classic/lifecycle/goingLive/
While I do now have API Signature Credentials including, API username, API password, and Signature, it still only shows that for "Accept credit cards directly" I am only "Enabled for test only"
I would greatly appreciate any advise or alternative solution to get this fixed.
Thanks!

About iTunes Connect

I am having problems with banking informations on iTunes Connect. I am brazilian and everything was working fine, but now they're asking for IBAN (International Bank Account Number) and I can't find how to get that number anywhere! Anyone know how to get it? Is it necessary? I Heard that it is just necessary for european countries..
IBAN for Brazilian bank accounts is effective as of 1st of July 2013. You can contact your bank to learn your IBAN.
Your IBAN should be located on your bank account statement. If you can not find the IBAN on your ban account statement, then you should be able to contact your bank's firm and they should be able to help you get that.
This is the Irish Payment Services Organisation Limited's website. I know you are not Irish, but it is the IBAN, so it all works with the same rules and terms.

I have a few questions about Authorize.Net

My customer has revenues of 10.000 per week so I'm looking for a professional solution. I need a good payment gateway for my shop (Drupal Ubercart). I was considering to use Authorize.Net. Is it available in Europe ?
If you are in europe, please consider Ogone.
SagePay, Wirecard, and CyberSource are all good gateways in Europe. I've had really good experience with the support staff at Wirecard in particular.
For those that stumble upon this question, Authorize.net now supports UK and European businesses: http://www.authorize.net/en-GB/
I believe they're also adding support for Canadian businesses as well.
It is not available in Europe. It is only available for US based merchant accounts. You can take European credit cards through Authorize.Net but only if you have a US merchant account.
From their FAQ
At this time, we are only able to offer our services to U.S. based businesses, or merchants who have U.S. based merchant accounts.
Why don't you consider PayPal it is one of the widely most supported Payment Gateways, it works in Europe as you requested and from my knowledge is easily integrated/setup with ubercart.
In my opinion Authorize.net is the best payment gateway out there.
Also to quote their FAQ's:
Does Authorize.Net support
international transactions?Yes.
Merchants can submit transactions to
the payment gateway on behalf of
non-U.S. customers. To do so, the
merchant's bank account must be with a
financial institution located in the
United States, and the merchant must
be configured to accept the customer's
card type: Visa, MasterCard, American
Express, Discover, JCB, Diner's Club,
or EnRoute. The payment gateway will
submit the amount of the transaction
to the customer's card issuer, who
will then handle all currency
conversion to U.S. dollars. Since
default Address Verification Service
(AVS) settings may cause foreign
transactions to be declined, merchants
who plan to regularly accept
international transactions should make
sure that their AVS settings are
configured to meet their business
needs.
So this is the one I would choose and it is not very hard to implement.
