Credit Cards

Post by Skara »

I've got a validation class, no problem. How can I set it up to actually work? ^^;
I know absolutely nothing about how this actually works.

Validation class? That's a bit vague.

No, I mean I know how to validate one. That's no problem. I want to know how to do something with it. As in how would I charge it?

You need a payment gateway -- I've used bluepay (bluepay.com) before. They give you a script that you can use to integrate into you shopping cart. Somtimes you connect using CURL and somtimes it's a simple post with a redirect from their server that you define in a hidden field. Typically they have you submit a query string to the server with specific variables in a specific order accompanied by some sort of secret key. They process the card for you.

Is that what you wanted to know?

a very large undertaking that would be, if creating a system (like authorize.net) you mean.

if help you want on how to charge a card (using someone like authorize.net or some other 3rd party), help I can provide.
