Hi,

If you have experience working on a Shopping Carts, or E-Commerce Application, let us know which ones since there are many members out there looking for an AlertPay Integrated Solution.  The purpose of this forum is to help developers and business owners get the tools they need to run their site.

We will soon be uploading the following AlertPay Integrated Carts that have been implemented by various developers.  

-Oscommerce
-Miva
-Cubecart

There are tons of carts out there, so if you have one that supports AlertPay, let us know.

has anyone used that alertpay payment module from zen cart?

Hi there,

When we get a chance this week, we'll do a deployment of ZenCart to test it out and see if we can reproduce and resolve the issues for you.  We'll update you late next week or the week after.  Normally it would be a lot faster but we're still wrapping up our latest release so everyone's focus is on supporting that at the moment.  

Are you actually creating button code in AlertPay and pasting it into the cart?  Or does the cart generate the Button Code for you?

This is similar to the Egold module. Simply upload into the appropriate diretorys and start accepting Alertpay payments.

I am trying very hard to get a shopping cart to work with alertpay I have been pushing my web site designer to make is happen... any help would be great as if I use the buy it now buttons its fine BUT  after adding the alertpay buttons the admin panel becomes useless. and the site will be static. also whats going on with credit card payments??

Works fine for me... I think! I dont have it in a live environment but... when I tested it, it does what it should. Simply, to collect the prices from your cart and slap them into the payment processing form. You may need to enable it from the zen-cart ACP... its pretty much plug and play otherwise. Try switching or "reseting" the template. You shouldn't need the image button, and you shouldn't be putting any generated Alertpay code snippits anywhere. Ignore the alertpay.gif. The mod will put a new "radio" button in the payment option area. It's that simple.

What it could reallllllllllllllly use, is an "express checkout" like paypal has, so you dont have to log in to use it. The paypal express button displays before the log in step and simply calculates the total from your guest cart and slaps it in their form. I wish someone who had more time would fix it up like that for us, since its open source. ;)

Ferhan, let me know if you want to have a looksie, I'll let you test it out if you like. I have the Paypal express installed too so you can see how all that works to get a good perspective on it. I hope you guys do something with this zen-cart/Alertpay code, its a real asset! This is how I found out about Alertpay!

*EDIT* Upon further review, I've noticed a small issue with this mod, perhaps it worked before, perhaps not. It should pass the address and profile info to the form for convienience. This however does not seem to affect its over-all basic functionality. Perhaps if I ever get some rest, I'll look deeper into it myself. ;)

Any progress on this?  I would really like to use AlertPay in my ZenCart to take MasterCard and Visa.

It works already! I mean, for basic functionality... it would be nice to have it pass the account holders info from their account to the form (address, phone, ect. ect.). PayPal has finaly allowed "Mature Audiences" processing so I never got around to digging around in the code cuz it works good enough an an alternative for people who hate PayPal. I think it would be a wise investment for AlertPay to develope it further, when they have time... as its opensource. Give her a spin and let us know.

Well, I am not a good enough programmer to know how to get it to pass the customer info, but I kind of think it is essential for the customer to not have to re-enter the data before I would use AlertPay on my ZenCart, and I would think most others would feel the same way too. 

 Heck, I hate having to fill out the whole name/address/phone/email/cc number/exp. date, etc. once when making a purchase.  To have to do it twice to make a purchase would just about be a deal breaker for me unless I wanted a product real bad!  I'd think a lot of sales would be lost for that reason.

I do hope someone takes a look at this.

Very valid points.  I too get annoyed at having to retype everything at a shopping cart level, when all my data is already stored with AlertPay.  It's something on our todo list and requires an API which we require first.

  

Hello, I really need an Alertpay module for Joomla's ''Virtulemart'' shopping cart.  Can anyone help?

 Hello,

Unfortunately it is not available yet may be you can find something on Joomla's forum.

 

i don use either Oscommerce or any of other shopin cart ,, i had my own shoppin cart designed for me.

and i agree with most of the guys here,,

what i need is a way to link the payment process code with the code already in my website without repeating signing in or filling user info again

it would be great if i could only put a -buy now button- which takes only the total price from the process and allow the user to complete buying

and yea also without re-isnerting items or products in my alertpay account

thax alot

 Sorry for the double post, but i only found this section of the forum after ihad posted in features

I am using Magento open source shopping cart (http://www.magentocommerce.com/), quite a new cart (went v1.0 on 1 april) but it is packed with alot of festures that I found lacking in other carts

Their documentation is quite bad at the moment, they did have a wiki on making a payment module but a few things have changed as they released version 1.0 that it is very confusing.

I am going through the current modules that people have submitted there for form based payment (as apposed to API) and maybe i will be able to get it working

I must also show my support for the option to carry the users details accross, I will have to hold on changing over to Alertpay till we can find a solution 

Hello depach:

I will be more than happy to assist  you and let me know if any way I can help you integrating AlertPay

 

i really in abad need for help in this

i have a special shopping cart that programed as we asked for ,now i really want to use alert pay on it ,,
so please if any body kindly tell me if it possible to have it more simple>
i want the code to complete the process by taking the total price "posts the total to alertpay" and then proceed to payment without retyping the personal info again and without setting up items in to alertpay.
please somebody answer me

 hi Hanif:

 Great! I am currently trying to get my module to show up in meganto's payment providers page (looks like an issue of upper case vs lower case references i have), at the moment it is a stripped down version of a form based submission (like paypal standard) i think once i get that showing i can post my code (should be on seperate thread or here?) and we can discuss things like IPN :)
