Integration Checklist
Forter's AI Coding Kit can do most of the work for you. It scans your codebase and implements the integration directly, saving you the manual work below. Use it once you've deployed the cartridge (step 2) and have your SFCC codebase checked out locally. See SFCC Cartridge Overview.
To do it yourself instead, follow these steps in order to bring Forter live on your SFCC storefront:
# | Step | Where |
|---|---|---|
1 | Gather credentials and confirm SFCC/SFRA access | |
2 | Deploy the cartridge and import metadata | |
3 | Confirm your PSP fires app.post.auth in the standard flow — some PSPs need extra hook wiring | |
4 | Set your Site ID, Secret Key, and API version | |
5 | Export historical order data to Forter (optional; improves model accuracy from day one) | |
6 | Configure site preferences | |
7 | Test with forced decisions and dedicated test emails | |
8 | Run in Listen Mode before enforcing decisions | |
9 | Go live |
