Adds support for merchant amount and currency for test mode authorizations


Adds support for merchant amount and currency for test mode authorizations

What’s new

When you create a test mode authorization, you can now optionally specify a merchant_amount and merchant_currency.

Impact

You can use merchant_amount and merchant_currency to create valid Authorizations that have currencies that differ from the merchant’s card currency.

With the addition of merchant_amount, the amount parameter becomes optional. You can specify either amount or merchant_amount when you create test mode authorizations.
