# Primary Payment (Enterprise)

Primary Payment Configuration in Verifone Commander Central allows for primary payment settings to be configured and managed in the cloud, and then transmitted to a single or multiple sites. Support for primary payment remote management within Verifone Commander Central requires software Release 55.02 or higher.

Primary Payment Configuration in Verifone Commander Central does NOT set up the Method of Payment (MOP), touchscreen, and DCRs. For details on how to configure payments locally within Verifone Configuration Client, see the Commander User Reference manual.

### **Primary Payment Programs**

The Primary Payment Program page allows multiple primary payment configurations to be built and assigned to each site. Each program has a specific individual Program Name. Programs can be created in Verifone Commander Central, or they can be added when the site is onboarded to Verifone Commander Central.
