This module can be used in both Merchant version 3.x and 2.2x. However, there is a serious, fatal error bug in one of the Miva Corp supplied core files in versions 2.22, 2.23, and 2.24. Hence, in order to use this module in those versions of Merchant, you will need to edit the db.mv file. Be sure you make a backup of this file in case you make an error. In the db.mv file, locate the function BasketCharge_DeleteAll_Module. The MvWHILE loop needs to be closed with </MvWHILE> instead of </MvIF>. If you don't fix this, you will get an error upon checkout. Again, this bug has been fixed in Merchant 2.25 and 3.x so you only need to make the file correction in Merchant 2.22, 2.23, and 2.24.
