eWay
ProductCart integrates with two payment systems offered by eWay:
- XML Payments (recommended). Using this method your customers will process credit card payments directly through your own website, without ever leaving your store. The transactions are “posted” to eWay in the background. An SSL certificate is required on your store since that’s where credit card information will be entered.
- Shared Payment Page. Using this method customers will temporarily leave your site and be taken to eWAY's secure Shared Payment Page. Once the transaction has been completed, they will be taken back to your store. Since credit card information in entered on the eWay form, an SSL certificate on your store is not required, although it is still recommended.
Once you have created an account with eWay and received your Customer ID, return to ProductCart, log into the Control Panel and select Payment Options > Add New Options > Real-time credit card processing… to load the Add Real-Time Payment Option form.
Select eWay from the list of available payment gateways, and you will be taken to a section of the page where you can configure the following settings:
- Customer ID. Enter the Customer ID that has been assigned to you by eWay.
- Enable Test Mode. Check this option to use the gateway in test mode.
- Processing Fee. You can choose whether to charge an additional transaction fee using the Processing Fee field. The fee can be either a flat charge or a percentage of the total order amount.
- Payment Name. You can change the description that is shown to your customers during checkout. For example, you could change “Credit Card” to “Visa and MasterCard”.
To complete the activation, submit the form by clicking the Add button.
