A six-digit number that identifies a client bank. A BIN is assigned by TSYS Acquiring Solutions and is the highest level of the front-end hierarchy. The front-end hierarchy is used by TSYS Acquiring Solutions to route an authorization or batch to the correct acquirer. BINS contain agents, the second level of the front-end hierarchy.

The unique, 12-digit number that identifies the merchant to the client or agent bank.

A unique identification number applied to terminals.

The merchant's DBA (Doing Business As) name. When entering or editing this name, the field accepts alphabetic characters (upper and lower case), numeric characters, spaces, and these special characters only:

. , : ; " ' < ( ) + ! @ # $ % ? & * - _ = / > ¢

The maximum number of authorization requests per terminal (V number) allowed in a rolling 24-hour period. This field accepts a maximum value of 999999.

The Daily Auth Count value set at the merchant level is applied by default to any subsequent terminal record created for the merchant, although you can then edit the terminal level value. If a Daily Auth Count value exists at the terminal level, that value is used to set the maximum daily auth count, otherwise the merchant level value is used.

Whether set at the merchant or the terminal level, the Daily Auth Count value indicates each individual terminal's maximum daily auth count, and not the total auth count allowed for all the merchant's terminals.

Note: When you set or update a Daily Auth Count for a merchant on the Merchant Account page, that value will populate the Daily Auth Count on the Terminal Setup page for each subsequent terminal you set up for the merchant, but it will not update the Daily Auth Count for any existing terminals for the merchant. If you update the Daily Auth Count for a terminal, it will not update the Daily Auth Count on the Merchant Account page.

A six-digit number identifying a chain of locations or stores of a merchant. The client or agent bank assigns a chain. Chains are the third level of the front-end hierarchy.
