Shopping cart only accepting credit cards sometimes
I replaced a Prostores shopping cart with a BC cart and my client keeps telling me of the significant number of people who are having getting the shopping cart to accept their credit cards. While there are a certain number of people who mistype, we've been doing this for a number of years and we can tell when there are lots more such complaints than usual.
I just put in a credit card for someone (on Chrome) and it gave me an error "Go Back." I entered the same information on Firefox and it was successful.
If we didn't all have years of experience with this, I would simply dismiss, but I really believe there are problems.
Is anyone else having this experience? Is there anything else I can do to improve the performance?

One thing that we find very helpful is we added a script that emails the admin the results of every transaction, both succesful and not. We post in this email the communications that come back from the payment gateway, which normally you never see. This is extremely helpful in quickly catching and diagnosing errors or miscommunications between the site and the gateway that otherwise would be very hard to figure out, or sometimes even know about.
Another good thing about this is you will know a customer has an unsuccessful transaction the same time they do and if you wish you can contact them to see if you can help. This often saves sales and customers that you may otherwise unknowingly lose.
The way we have it set up, this can be turned off or on, incase the merchant finds all the emails annoying, but it's a good safety net to have in place if you are having issues like you describe.
I'm not familiar with the code in the cart that you are using, but there is always a point in the gateway transaction flow where you can add in this sort of "listening" system. I'd recommend doing something like this.
Hope this helps.

Accepting Credit Card Payments
Please be patient, this is new for me. I know the bare
minimum, and have only designed basic web sites. (I'm primarily a
print designer.)
I have a client that needs to be able to accept credit card
payments on his site. No shopping cart, no products being sold.
He's a debt collector, and wants people to be able to come to his
site to make a payment directly. I tried talking him into Paypal
because I think I can figure that out. But he wants the credit card
stuff directly on HIS site.
I know he needs to have SSL set up (right?). He set up his
hosting himself, so I'll have to find out what he has. He has to
have some kind of merchant services in order to accept credit card
payments...I'm trying to get that info from him as well. I'm at the
point where I don't even know what to ask him or tell him.
I've found third-party services out there that seemed like a
good idea (some mentioned on this forum), but they're for setting
up shopping carts. I don't need that, just the payment part.
Is there anyone out there willing to point me in the right
direction?? What's the equation for getting this accomplished?
Thank you!

Hi Lisa:
If you want to work with a payment gateway, you're pretty
much going to
have to use a shopping cart solution as they include
scripting that
enables the cart to interface with the payment gateway.
Otherwise you're
going to have to hand code your API calls to the payment
gateway.
Here are some things to think about:
1. Does he have a database that you can put online so that he
can search
and view creditor records?
2. Does his hosting provider support any kind of Server Model
such as
ASP, PHP or Coldfusion?
3. Does the payment data need to be stored in a database so
your client
can retrieve it at a later time, or does he plan to use the
payment
gateway's control panel to view payments received?
These three questions need to be answered to determine the
extent of the
application you can develop. I'd recommend strongly that the
client have
a database which stores all creditor information, including a
creditor
ID and that the website you develop have a User
Authentication module so
that creditors can log in to their own accounts, view their
records and
make partial or full payments to your client using your
application.
To implement this, you're going to have to host your site on
a server
that supports a Server Model such as ASP VBScript, ASP
JScript, PHP or
Coldfusion. Have your client check with his hosting provider
to see what
Server Model is supported if any. You may need to move him to
a hosting
provider that supports one of these models. This is because
however you
implement this application you're going to AT LEAST be able
to post form
data to a processor page that uses a server language(model).
If a database of creditor information is on the server, it
makes sense
to store payment information in the database and to update
creditor
information, or to give your client administrator privileges
so that he
can update the creditor information when a payment has been
made. Also
consider that there may be fees such as interest on principle
or some
kind of amortization calculation to determine the actual
percentage of
the debt that has been paid when a partial payment is made.
With this information in mind, and knowing that you'll have
to code User
Authentication, Payment Calculations, API scripting to pass
data to the
payment gateway, Success and Failure pages that display data
about the
payment as well as a search pages to display creditor data to
the
creditor as well as a back-end administrative application to
allow your
client to update the data in his database, you may want to
consider
using some tools to help you with this kind of project.
WebAssist has the tools to allow you to build the User
Authentication,
Data search and manipulation and also the non-shopping cart
payment
application that you need to use which will interface
silently with
payment gateways such as Autorize.NET, PayPal's Website
Payments Pro,
Payflow Pro, LinkPint API as well as international payment
gateways such
as eWay and ProTX. Check out these tools and see if they will
be
appropriate for your task:

DataAssist:

eCart (don't let the name fool you! It can be configured in
such a way
that your client doesn't even know he's using a product that
has the
word "cart" in it!)

Cielo app for accepting credit card payments.
Hi there, I don't even know if this is the right place, but if someone could help....
I'm form Brazil and a BB user for years, was looking for upgrading my 9900 to a Z10/Q10 phone.
My company will start accepting credit card payments using smartphones, but the bank says they only have apps for iOS and Android....Is there anyway an Android app could work on the Z10?
Thanks
StorelliBAR files are apps you can install (side load) to your BB10 device. BAR files are converted (usually by others) from those native to Android and iOS.
DDPB is a PC app that can be used to perform the side-loading process of the BAR file app to your BB10 device.
So, if someone somewhere (you must search the Internet) has created already a BAR file for this Cielo app you want (which you say already exists for Android and iOS), then you can download that BAR file to your PC, install DDPB to your PC, and then use DDPB to install the app (using the BAR file) to your BB10 device.
The process is called side loading. If a developer has not written their app for BB10, then you can still side load it if the above conditions are met (someone has created a BAR file already for the app).
Good luck!

Can you accept credit cards without using Paypal?
We can already accept credit cards through our bank using Merchant Services which gives a lot lower % fee than Paypal offers. Is there a way to accept credit cards on our online form without going through Paypal?
We currently only support PayPal as a payment processor for credit cards.

I have a credit in Itunes. ow can I use this credit in IBooks? It only shows credit card info to use.
Apple won't reply on here, but you could try contacting iTunes Support and see if they can move the balance from your account to their's (I don't know if they can, or whether they can only move it to one account as opposed to splitting it between accounts) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

Accepting credit cards with your ipad? anyone do this at your business?
i saw it on tv once and online.. squareup.com has this device that hooks to your phone or ipad to allow you to accept credit cards.. they say the fee is 2.75% of the transaction.. just wanted to know if any other businesses use this and how do you like it?
thx in advanceI use square and it works fine, but it's really meant for people who don't do a lot of volume. For example, you can do any dollar amount you want, but at first they put a 30-day hold on amounts you receive over a thousand dollars. (They say businesses can negotiate this.) I'm a musician and I just use it for clients who forget the check or who don't have access to paper checks anymore. It works quite well for that.
Intuit also has something similar and theirs includes the option for a relatively inexpensive merchant account, so check them both out. Intuit's page is typical of their site and doesn't mention things like holds, so I don't know how they compare there. -

Does Adobe Muse have on line widget store that accepts credit cards?
Hi ,
You can find almost all the widgets available for Muse at https://creative.adobe.com/addons
or
https://www.adobeexchange.com/
And over there, for all those widgets which are paid, you can use your credit card to make the payments.
Hope this helps

How do you pay for apps using an iTunes gift card. I have money on a gift card but only my credit card shows up as method of payment.
After establishing the Credit Card account (i.e. after you have made purchases), you can remove the credit card information by editing your payment info, choosing "None".

Greetings,
Scenario : I have a business that seeks to use Skype Business for
numerous Skype users to be allocated and regulated from one
business account : : : as well seeks to have the capability to
charge credit cards (through Skype if applicable) by each
allocated call (through any of the individual Skype users
of our business) for services provided during said calls.
My question is : is this a capability of Skype within
the Skype Business Format or would our business
need to use an outside account to do this?Hi, sequoyah, and welcome to the Community,
Skype is not set up to accommodate this type of use; a Skype Manager account will allocate only Skype credit, subscriptions, and features from one account, and via only one payment method at a time.
For your service calls, you will need to employ an alternate service provider.
Best regards,
Elaine
