I am not aware of anyone that has done a Braintree integration but in looking at the site briefly, it doesn't look like it would be too difficult.
I do want to clarify one thing. With our Authorize.net implementation we only store the encrypted cc in cache while checking out. It doesn't get stored in the database unless you decide you need to. As far as PCI compliance, I do know of one client I worked with that paid an outside vendor to do a pci compliance audit of their satchmo store and they did pass. I'm not saying this to try to persuade you not to use Braintree. I just want people to know that our authorize.net implementation can be pci compliant. That being said, Braintree's "Transparent Redirect" sounds interesting and would be a useful processor to have in Satchmo/bursar. -Chris On Sat, Mar 13, 2010 at 2:47 PM, Richard <run...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hello all, > > I love Django and I've been waiting for a chance to use Satchmo.
