Hi,
I want to set up a very simple shopping cart with one discount setting
(full vs student/hardship) and a small handful of software products
(extensions to my open source SOFA Statistics application
www.sofastatistics.com). I have been reading about IPN and PDT and
Express Checkout vs Direct Payment etc and also some PHP libraries like
https://github.com/pete911/paypal and
http://blog.moorberry.biz/2010/04/paypal-nvp-api/.
All I want is for people to be able to buy the extensions by credit card
(or paypal credit) and for something to be sent to my system so I can
respond to the successful order. Ideally the user will be returned to
the SOFA website as well. I can handle the response (saving purchase
details to a database etc) but I want the rest to be nice and simple for
users. I have also opted for Express Checkout because I don't have a
verified US account and Express Checkout should be fine.
Any recommendations? I don't intend to handle refunds or anything else
very complicated. I am not using an existing PHP framework and would
rather avoid that sort of dependency if at all possible. The complexity
will be restricted to how I send the extensions to people and licence
them etc.
All the best, Grant
