                        **Note** CyberSource Latin American Processing is the name of a specific processing connection that CyberSource supports. In the CyberSource API documentation, CyberSource Latin American Processing does not refer to the general topic of processing in Latin America. The information in this field description is for the specific processing connection called _CyberSource Latin American Processing_. It is not for any other Latin American processors that CyberSource supports.


                        #### CyberSource through VisaNet

                        Credit card networks cannot process transactions that contain non-ASCII characters. CyberSource through VisaNet accepts and stores non-ASCII characters correctly and displays them correctly in reports. However, the limitations of the credit card networks prevent CyberSource through VisaNet from transmitting non-ASCII characters to the credit card networks. Therefore, CyberSource through VisaNet replaces non-ASCII characters with meaningless ASCII characters for transmission to the credit card networks.

                        Truncating this value affects AVS results and therefore might also affect risk decisions and chargebacks.

                        Credit card networks cannot process transactions that contain non-ASCII characters. CyberSource through VisaNet

                        accepts and stores non-ASCII characters correctly and displays them correctly in reports. However, the limitations

                        of the credit card networks prevent CyberSource through VisaNet from transmitting non-ASCII characters to the

                        credit card networks. Therefore, CyberSource through VisaNet replaces non-ASCII characters with meaningless ASCII

                        characters for transmission to the credit card networks.
