IMPORTANT REMINDER: As CardConnect prepares to migrate its hosted applications to a new IP space, including the CardPointe Gateway, we will be conducting short tests beginning on Tuesday, April 30 at 2:30 p.m. ET, to insure the impacted groups have completed the IP change.
The IP change requires that if you have configured a network/firewall to whitelist CardConnect IP addresses in order to connect to our platform, you must add the following IP blocks for ingress and egress traffic as soon as possible. If this is not completed before the deadline on May 29, you will be unable to connect to the CardPointe Gateway.
Data Center: PHL (Philadelphia, PA)
Old IP Block: 69.164.93.0/26
New IP Block: 198.62.138.0/24
Data Center: CHI (Chicago, IL)
Old IP Blocks: 67.217.245.160/27 and 173.252.168.128/27
New IP Block: 206.201.63.0/24
Notes on Final IP Cutover
The final cutover to the new IP Space for Gateway will occur on May 29, 2019 at 2:30 PM EDT. On May 29 we will NOT be blocking the legacy address, as we have been doing with the testing exercises. Both IP ranges will coexist until May 30 at 2:30 PM to allow for DNS caching (bad actors).

Please be advised that CardConnect is in the process of migrating its hosted applications and services, including CardPointe and the CardPointe Gateway to a new IP space. If you have configured a network and/or firewall to whitelist CardConnect IP addresses in order to connect to the platform, you must add the following IP blocks for ingress and egress traffic as soon as possible, in order to avoid service disruption:
Data Center: PHL (Philadelphia, PA)
Old IP Block: 69.164.93.0/26
New IP Block: 198.62.138.0/24
Data Center: CHI (Chicago, IL)
Old IP Block: 67.217.245.160/27 and 173.252.168.128/27
New IP Block: 206.201.63.0/24
NOTE: All application and/or firewall configurations should only reference the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the CardConnect services (e.g. fts.cardconnect.com, cardpointe.com or copilot.cardconnect.com), versus hard-coding IP addresses. This will mitigate the need to make changes when CardConnect moves services between data center locations.
CARDPOINTE PORTAL UPDATE DEADLINE | March 31, 2019
If you whitelist cardpointe.com IP addresses, they must whitelist the above new IPs in your firewall before the deadline, or you will not be able to access CardPointe.
CARDPOINTE GATEWAY UPDATE DEADLINE | May 29, 2019
If you whitelist the CardPointe Gateway IP address, you must whitelist the above new IPs in your firewall before the deadline or you will experience failed connections to the Gateway.
