Just wondering if anyone has feedback on how easy/not it is to integrate 2checkout to HSphere. I saw some confusing info on their help files about recurring users needing to verify that services have been rendered?
I also got a surprise - only after I signed up - to discover you cannot incorporate your site's look and feel into their checkout system (under V2). Any other V2 limitations I should be aware of?

It's very easy to integrate it with H-Sphere directly.
Inside H-Sphere; select 'Settings', then "Merchant Gateway".
In the "Web payment processor conf" section select 2co from the drop down and 'edit'. The input your 2co ID, and you're good to go.
As for the v2 system, I beleive any limitations there, are on the part of 2co, so you'd need to contact them, as opposed to a H-Sphere related question.
Just a note: 2co doesn't support recurring payment notifications back to H-Sphere. You'd need to login when the users payment clears each month, and credit them appropriately.
It does however offer automation for the initial payment.

Actually that's what I was wondering about. So I can automate the first payment and account setup. But then for subsequent monthly payments, will I receive an email from 2co? And I then have to go into my HSphere and credit the client account?
What happens if I'm late crediting the client account - will HSphere shut them down?
And noted on the V2 issue - I know that's nothing to do with HSphere. Just wondering if anyone has heard of other 2co V2 limitations I haven't discovered yet.
Thanks for the quick reply.

Yes, you can automate that first step. It will create the account for you after signup (if you want it to).

It depends how you set your suspension rules. If you go to 'settings' then 'managing debtors', you can set rules on how you want H-Sphere to handle this. It can automate the warnings, aswell as account suspension (only if you tell it to) and even account removal.
You have complete control over it.
