Mercury Payments can settle the batch automatically each day at 4AM EDT or the merchant can choose to settle the batch manually. Both options are not available; the batch settlement method option be set by Mercury Payment Systems. Manual settlement may be preferable for end users in the Pacific time zone (or any business open past 4AM EDT).

 

The default back office setting for Mercury Payment Systems batch method is Time Initiated (Automatic). If manual batch settlement is required, contact Mercury Payment Systems to change the batch settlement method, then return to the settings screen and select Merchant Initiated (Manual) from the drop-down list. Restart back office.
