-As part of Foxy's integration with Helcim, you will need to request that your Helcim account be enabled for using Full Card Numbers with their API with Helcim's support team. This is enabled on a per account basis, but you can let the Helcim support team know that you're using Foxy.io for your ecommerce.

This is enabled on a per account basis, but you can let the Helcim support team know that you're using Foxy.io for your ecommerce. Helcim will reach out to us to confirm that you are a Foxy.io user before enabling it for your account. They will also require some attestation of your PCI compliance, but that should be fairly simple (as Foxy is the one actually handling the card data), and there shouldn't be any additional costs associated with that.
