Moneybooker credit card payments

Submitted by Ravindra on Fri, 2008-02-08 14:54.

Most merchants are not aware that direct credit card payments are not enabled by default for moneybooker accounts unlike in PayPal. How ever it is not that difficult to have since you just need to request them.

PayPal Integration

Submitted by Ravindra on Fri, 2008-02-08 14:28.

Recently i had to cater a special requirement from a client.
Basically he wanted to capture quite a lot of extra information about the order from the customer and pass over that information to PayPal which in turn should send that info to the customer as well as to my client.

I knew that PayPal would not allow a site to POST any amount of info , but due to client request studied the API in more detail.

In most cases a site would pass item_name_x,amount_x,quantity_x.
where "x" stands for 1,2,3... basically the item number. and PayPal would nicely display a cart of those items ,calcualte the totals and display. and you can send shipping charges also using shipping_1 variable. Otherwise you can let PayPal do the shipping calculation for you.

Moneybooker integration

Submitted by Ravindra on Tue, 2008-01-29 15:04.

Recently i integrated moneybooker as a payment gateway to a client project. It was my first experience with moneybooker. If you do not know what moneybooker is they serve the same purpose as paypal and they are being more and more popular.
http://www.moneybookers.com/

I made the mistake of completely following the HTML code generated at
http://www.moneybookers.com/app/test_payment.pl
and then customizing it.

I was able to create a mini shopping cart at the moneybooker side with the few available variables. during testing suddenly when the number of items increased the request to moneybooker from the client site failed.
