utahfriend Posted July 6, 2010 Posted July 6, 2010 I have a website with a membership base. The members have already logged in and some want to make a donation. I only need to use the portion of oscommerce that charges the credit card. Is that possible with oscommerce?
germ Posted July 7, 2010 Posted July 7, 2010 Most osC stores don't charge the card directly. If your site processes or stores CC info you have to be PCI Compliant ( <= it's a link, click it to read more). If you violate the PCI mandates and are caught fines can run in the hundreds of thousands of dollars and you can be banned from getting a merchant account for life... PCI compliance isn't cheap or easy. For that reason most choose an "offsite" payment processor (Paypal, Authorize.net, etc.). I've seen a lot of sites that have a Paypal button where you can click it and do your business there. I think you would be better off doing something like that. If I suggest you edit any file(s) make a backup first - I'm not perfect and neither are you.

utahfriend Posted July 7, 2010 Author Posted July 7, 2010 That is why I want to use Oscommer for autorize.net. Is there a way to just send the member and the amount to the module to use authorize.net?

utahfriend Posted July 7, 2010 Author Posted July 7, 2010 I have looked at that. But the member enters how much he wants to spend on credits (I said donation earlier, sorry) The buttons do not allow you to enter an amount, you have to create a button for each amount. Domation allows you to enter an amount, however the page you go to after clicking the button says it is a donation, which it is not. I cannot find out how to make the buy now button allow different amounts like I can wiht paypal. Any ideas?
