Does 2CO allow complete integration into a site so the visitor never knows they're involved other than seeing the 2CO on their cc statement?

Any examples of a 2CO integrated site?

Short answer is *no*, but 2CO allow you to put header and footer template of your site so it "looks" like you never left the site.

Your clients needs to go thrue 2CO secure servers.

Good luck.

Are there any third party processors that allow this?

Unfortunately, no. :) I do not think there is ... :(

a 3ppp won't do this. though, you're still able to customize the header, footer look.

Good question, but I have another :) If you use a 3rd party cart like OSCommerce or CubeCart you never leave your own server, correct?

Also, for anyone has used 2CO with one of these carts, is the credit card processing pretty seemless?

Hardly that you never leave, I suppose OSC or CubeCart generates Form suitable for 2checkout and after that your are leaving own server for 2co secure servers.

Good luck.

Yap. You always have to go thru 2CO.

It can be done via IFrame, this also keeps the payment page on a secure server

this is something I noticed two days ago. I thought with 3rd party shopping carts you never leave your website.

A question, with 2CO and Ikobo, do I still need ssl for my 3rd party shopping cart?

megagente,

If you are using a shopping cart provided by your 3pp then the customer is simply switched to a secure page. (unless their secure page is IFramed into your page)

The gateway (where customer enters their cc number) should be on a secure server ... it isn't your responsibility to provide it, its theirs.

megagente,

you don't need SSL key in this case

Good luck.

https?

Yes,

You don't need SSL cert for https.

I would still highly suggest getting a SSL certificate for your own site / shopping cart. Certificates are dirt cheap nowadays, why not make your ecommerce site look more professional to the potential customer? The checkout process starts on your site anyway - some customers may just close their browsers if they do not see the 'lock' icon in their browser.

How is that possible ?

He means on a Shared SSL, could be.

ok, but when installing Oscommerce in Fantastico it says:

Use SSL (secure transactions) Yes No
I put "yes"

Secure server hostname in case you use SSL. Only hostname (and username in case of a shared certificate). Don't add 'https://' and don't use leading or trailing slash.

I put localhost, even my hostserver name and my domain name

I have a private certificate from starter SSL that I was not able to install correctly and in admin after Oscommerce installation says:
"No esta protegido por una conexión segura SSL". You are not protected with a secure SSL connection.

Have you guys check out reseller guru
s website. I reckon it integrate with 2C nicely. You probably won’t notice if you don’t look at the https address

There are over 40 3PP alternatives to choose from. They may not offer seamless integration with your shopping cart, but they provide their own version of a shopping cart and payment gateway included. Many customers are already comfortable with several of the more popular 3PP alternatives, so to milk this market you should provide them with the interface that they are familiar with.

Agreed. Many people won't even enter there full name on a site that doesn't have the "lock"
