Quickbooks Payments

[Guest]

I have a client that want to use Quickbooks' service to process CC payments. Does anyone know how I can get this setup in OSC?

First you need a QuickBooks Merchant Account.

 

Then, if my understanding of this system is correct, your 'Offline' QuickBooks system connects to the QuickBooks merchant service and processes the card payments.

 

There's no connection with any shopping cart, as far as I can see.

My client has the Quickbooks merchant account. How does that interface with OSC?

You obviously misread what I said.

There is a quickbooks integration contribution. However, as it is done currently, the CC information is not transfered to QB. This could be changed and payments processed. However (again) it is not real-time and each payment would still need to be processed, one at a time.

 

Something to think about: Quickbooks merchant accounts are not the cheapest out there. They do integrate nicely with QB, but do you need that? Do you need each customer saved in Quickbooks? There are contributions giving financial information that can be manually entered into QB periodically (daily, weekly, month-end).

I set this up for an OSC earlier this week.

 

Use the payment module in the Contributions. That is just a small piece of it though. You have to create a developer account with Intuit (free) and register your application (OSC) with Intuit (free), then you need to get a Connection ticket for your merchant account (free). You get an App ID and an App URL when you register the app - these go into the payment module. The connection ticket will also go into the module.

You can find the documentation at the link - you should really take the time to read it. There are quite a few steps and lots of confusion at first. In the end you'll see it wasn't so bad though and could repeat it again with relative ease. Days worth of research and in the end took less than an hour to make it work.

 

Good luck ;)
