Paypal Pro, or alternative?

Hi gang

anyone using Paypal as paymkent for clients’ sites, out there?

i understand that using “web Payments Pro” requires the API, which Jodo says in incompatible with Hsphere.

The question is what is the alternative? Is there another way to accept Credit card payments via Paypal - without having to leave my site?

Thanks!

You could use an alternative service which lets you post payment details behind the scenes, that is using XMLHTTP (if using ASP).

Your domain will have to be SSL of course, to accept the card details, then you post them to your payment provider in code, server to server, then simply respond back to the user to say payment has been processed - depending on the response you get back from you your payment provider’s server.

Hope that helps a bit

i believe it will be supported in HSphere 2.5 which is currently in BETA

Hi Antic,

thanks - i know, i use this method with authorize.net. The thing is that i have to use Paypal here. Do you know if they suport this method of XMLhttp - without needing the API?

Thanks!
