Hello Folks,

Well you dont get much support or replies from paysystems these days so I thought it would be a better idea to ask this here.

Can hosts accept credit cards using their own forms and SSL and then submit them manually to Paysystems via their signup links ? What do you need to do to get this setup with Paysystems ? They are tracing IPs according to credit card countries therefore if you do it the way I described above then they void the transaction.

All your advice will be appreciated.

Regards,

Zenden

Zenden,

You aren't supposed to, but hacking up the payment forms is easy enough and it works a treat.

You can't do it with 2checkout, as they have the payment submission locked to be reffered only by their own IP's. [not that you had asked about 2checkout]

So yes, it is possible - you aren't supposed to, but who cares eh? ;)

Thank you for your reply David.

Well we do not want to be doing something that we are not supposed to. I remember sometime ago reading on the forum that you can actually get permission from paysystems to accept people CC information and submit them yourself. I am not sure though I may be dillusional... :)

I could never get permission to do so. So I just went ahead and did it myself.

Saves alot of time :)

Hi,

You should check their audit policies out. I know that most payment processors can freeze your funds and cancel your account if they find out you are breaking the terms. All it would take would be a visit to your site.....

Not saying they will, just a word of warning :)

Get a real merchant account - less headache :D

You can of cource do it properly.

You can post the person who is submitting's IP to them in the header. You can hack most things probebly even 2checkout this way.

Thanks

In addition to seg fault's comment "Get a real merchant account - less headache", you will also have many more options available to you including bypassing third party forms altogether.

Good luck...
