Setting up Trustly in PremiumPress

Activate the free plugin, then open your theme’s payment settings and add your Trustly credentials:

• API username — The processing (API) username from your Trustly merchant account.
• API password
• Merchant private key (PEM) — Your RSA private key — used to sign requests. Trustly signs notifications with their public key.

Requests are signed with RSA-SHA1 using your private key; Trustly returns a bank redirect URL and later posts a signed notification confirming the deposit. The plugin requires PremiumPress 12.
