In our church retreat page, there is a registration form created. I want to be able to the payment options in the form so that when you select an option, it takes you to a payment processing screen. I do not have a shopping cart as I do not have merchandise that is being sold.

Hello Nicole,

In this case you would need to use a third party payment gateway:

https://financesonline.com/top-20-payment-gateway-providers/

For very practical reasons it would not be either safe or lawful to have individuals enter payment card details into a plain form within WebSite X5.  The payment gateway solves both of these problems.

To save your user the inconvenience of having to enter their personal details twice it would be more logical to collect personal details within the payment gateway as opposed to within WebSite X5.

Alternatively you could use custom code and the HTML Object to embed payment gateway code directly within a WebSite X5 page.  The process of implementation would be dependent on whichever payment gateway you decided to use.  However, please be aware that unfortunately Incomedia are unable to offer support for third party/custom code.

The wording in the cart checkout stages can be heavily customised within WebSite X5, and this might possibly be a better solution to your needs as it would permit you to use the native payment methods within WebSite X5.  Just a thought.

Kind regards,

Paul

Both links show examples of JavaScript forms.  WebSite X5 doesn't use JavaScript to build its forms in this way: it uses HTML.  To build a form exactly like the ones shown in those pages you would need to use custom code, perhaps employing a programmer to assist you.
