Hello Andy,

What bank/payment provider do you refer to?

Kind regards,

Paul

Hi Paul,

Thanks for the reply.

It's chase paymentech.

Oh and Authorize.net 

When using a custom code payment type in WebSite X5 it is necessary to populate two variables, as follows:

The HTML code from the payment service provider is used to create the "Pay now" button, and it must include the ordered article's code and its price. You have to enter the following tags manually in the code, otherwise the shopping cart will not work correctly:

▪[ORDER_NO] - the order number is entered here;

▪[PRICE] - the price is entered here.

You don't need full access to the API...  just a small piece of HTML code which you add in Step 4 Advanced Settings > Shopping Cart > Order Management > Payment Type > Custom Code  -  the rest of the configuration is done inside your account on the payment merchant's site.

Here is the link to the relevant page for Authorize.net:

Things are a bit more obscure with regards to Chase Paymentech: most of the relevant documentation seems to be hidden away in protected pages which you need an account to access:

Once you have registered and logged in you need to again look for information concerning simple payment solutions using 'Pay Now' buttons, as opposed to solutions which involve the API.

On a personal note I would say that if Chase Paymentech are not willing to assist and help you locate the right information on their own website, then you would be better off voting with your feet and using an alternative payment provider.  Mainly because if they won't assist with basic requests for information in that way, then they are unlikely to provide good service when dealing with transactional issues and payment problems.  Reviews from existing/prior users are poor:

Good luck!

Hi Paul,

Thanks again for the reply.

With authorize.net I have found this page which contains "Charge a Credit Card and "Create a Visa Checkout Transaction"

page http://developer.authorize.net/api/reference/index.html#visa-checkout

I am a little confused as they do not have any html option to add to the shopping cart. Wold xml or php work? I can see they do for simple checkout but this apparently only applies if you only have one product or are accepting donations. The website i am creating will have 100's of products all priced at different ammounts. 

I'm actually reating it for aomeone else but have advised them to talk to authorize support to try and get more info. 

Cheers

You should be able to use the simple checkout in such a way that the entire order becomes 'one product'.  Is it possible you could attach the simple checkout documentation so we can help you further?

You can use PHP in conjunction with the API if you wish, but it will be a lot more work and won't integrate with the WebSite X5 shopping cart in the same way.  I don't recommend going down that route unless you enjoy programming and are competent at it.  

The client has decided to use another provider. Do you have any recommendations? They only want to go with an American company but are not keen on paypal or google wallet. Clients huh?

I've suggested that as well but they don't seem keen on the idea. 

Thanks for all your help though.

Really appreciate that. I'll just wait and see what the client finally decides on. 

Cheers
