Home > System Requirements > Firewall Settings
Depending on what functions you use, there are several firewall settings that will need to be checked.
This is the responsibility of your IT professional, and not Execu/Tech Systems.
Below are the default firewall settings required by our software:;
Allow these outgoing ports:
Shift4 Credit Card Processing from the client to the server where Shift4's UTG is installed - Contact Shift4 to verify.
Shift4 Credit Card Processing from the client to the internet - Contact Shift4 to verify.
The following are used to obtain the client's current public IP address. There are several servers used in case one or more do not respond in a timely manner.
No data is sent to these addresses. A request is made to the URL and it responds with the IP address in plain text.
Clink the links above, and if they open a browser and show your IP address, then your firewall settings are good.
Shift4 Credit Card Processing from the server where Shift4's UTG is installed to the internet (Shift4 Data Center) - Contact Shift4 to verify.
