Then you will need a payment gateway. Some, like Linkpoint are one in the same. But you will need to configure your store to take the customer to/thru the payment gateway.

It is your shop. But giving several options to customers will make it easier for them to pay you. If the payment is difficult, the customer might say no to the transaction anyway. concerning payment modules. Have a look in the contribution area. There are a lot of modules there. Not all are for you since some merchant/payment gateway only work with US Dollar and not any other currency You will find the contributions here: OsCommerce Contributions Regards Richard A Dutch guy living in Denmark B) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It usually says there to which provider it is relevant. Most are called the name of provider like for example paypal. But read the rules of each provider as they do not all accept all kinds of business as for example things like erotic kind of goods.

dath Posted January 8, 2005 Author Share Posted January 8, 2005 (edited) check. the only thing i want to add now is an advance payment module, which i found in the contributions section but i don't understand the instructions in the readme: adding bank account numer & advance payment module run the attached SQL file bankpl.sql for Polish banken.sql for English copy included files to appropriate directories. Edit the file include/languages/modules/english.php !!!!! (My English is rather poor,sorry) install the module in Admin in My Store configure bank name and bank account number This module will add a footer with bank information to the order e-mail sent to the customer. Use at your own risk. TODO: - Change e-mail footer to include owner name and total - how do i "run the sql file"? - the file include/languages/modules/english.php as stated in the quote above does not exist, i assume he means the file /include/languages/modules/payment/advance.php ... if i translate this into dutch, will it be recognised? - does anybody know where the email footer is located? and how to change it? thanks again in advance!
