**Region/Country:** North America  
**Expected Release Date:** March 2025  
**Internal Epic Number:** 13513  
Introducing the ability to enable Virtual Terminal during merchant boarding and configuration without requiring eCheck or card processing as an active product. This way, merchants can board transacting merchant accounts that are enabled for Virtual Terminal while eCheck is still in the process of being set up for the account.  
If Card Processing is not enabled on the transacting MID while the eCheck product is being set up, the ability to process payments using the One-Time Payment screen is disabled. This will be communicated to users through a banner message, and the Submit button at the bottom of the One-Time Payment screen will be disabled.  
**Customer Impact**  
This enhancement enables users to get started with Virtual Terminal quickly, configure their Virtual Terminal settings, and become familiar with the tool during the eCheck enablement process.
