Title: Email Credit Card Details
Post by: allenmuncey on October 03, 2005, 18:48:32 PM
Hi, I'm working on a whole https:// site,
is there a payment module, or facility to allow the credit card details to be sent to my office for manual processing?

Thanks for your help,

Kind Regards,
Karl

Credit Card # by email is a huge security risk.  Email isn't "private" at all and anyone who knows how can intercept and read your email unless it's encrypted.

why do not use the credit card processor already done for phpshop ?
after an order you'll have the credit card data via the phpshop admin and use it for a manual transaction...

for those that wish to have credit card info emailed to them > go to admin> components> mambophpshop > store > add payment method > create a name (e.g. credit card) > the code is "PO" > select which cards you wish to have and that is it.

i prolly mispoke by calling it a payment processor.  after anyone gives a credit card number, i just call it in manually, its for a small business so far and i only have about 10 per week (or less as people also write us checks).  the bank then takes care of the processing and the deposits the credit transaction into my business bank account.

Hi

You need to setup your shop with the Credit Card payment processor that already exist in the shop.
Since you have https, credit card numbers are sended encryted, and stored in your database.

So you don't need to have them sent by email. Just have a look at your orders, you have the credit card number, and you can process them manually.

Bye

"i understand that this is not secure...i personally use this...want to save on fees..."

Jesus, I hope no one else makes such a bad move. Can you image online stores sending credit card numbers through the net in Clear Text?

I hope I never shop at your store,

Regards,
Chuck

One of our developers has created a payment module that is better than the "default" version - in that it never sends or stores the whole information in either database or e-mail - basically it splits the details so some are stored and some sent - the shop owner then has to put them together in order to place the transaction with the bank. SSL is definitely recommended as the customer submit to website is the only time when all details are together.
