RE: PayPal Integration

[Paul Glavich]

Well we have had no complaints thus far (it is in beta atm), in fact we have 
received some really great feedback (giving in the range of 7-9 out of 10).

 

In terms of paypal, it looks like we have to use it for hosting so when we get 
to that part, it will probably involve a redirect to a hosted payment page. We 
provide verbiage stating our security involved and specifically not doing 
anything with the payment details and letting the respective sites handle all 
that. Again, so far so good.

 

In addition to this, a lot of customers have requested recurring payments and 
having their details saved by us. By details, they mean their credit card 
details so that we can re-use. The implementation of this seems secondary to 
them and they are opting for convenience and assuming security. Again, we don’t 
store any payments/credit card details and never will but these requests from 
customers don’t even mention paypal and/or secure storage, they just assume it.

I think this says something about perception in general though. In addition, we 
have had the odd payment gateway failure here (we use TNSI locally) and when it 
happens we actually have customers email through their entire credit card 
details (yes name, date, card no and CCV) to our accounts team to pay their 
monthly bill because they could not be bothered with the hassle of retrying 
later or perhaps left it too late or something. Yes, it is a thing. Smart 
business people are doing this.

 

Bottom line out of all this (for us anyway) is convenience seemingly trumps 
security, security is a given. I guess until something happens that is security 
related.

Totally agree with Greg here. Unless you are a major site that I somewhat 
"trust" (as if) I won't purchase if there is no paypal option that goes to 
paypal.

It’s one of the reasons that I’m seeing more customers wanting to use PayPal. 
At least their card details are only stored on a single site.

Yep. We have recently integrated with Stripe, Braintree and eWay. Out of all 
three, Braintree and stripe are the easiest. eWay has a lot of redirecting 
going on. Braintree and stripe client portions are very good. eWay’s 
site/portal is a little messy while the others I found more straightforward.

 

Also, we recently had a visit from Paypal to integrate with them (even though 
Braintree are affiliated with them). They only have a hosted payment option and 
we actually didn’t want that at all. All 3 (eWay, stripe and Braintree) go 
through a single form on our site but we don’t host or collect any payment 
creds, it is just our custom form.

Paypal do have a new payment system which requires no initial setup. You simply 
provide an email and payments go to paypal under that email. They are ‘held’ or 
‘buffered’ there until such time as the full setup is completed which actually 
makes setup really easy from a customer perspective.

Re: PayPal Integration

Hi folks

For those using Stripe, does it have a hosted payments page option that you 
redirect to, and it all runs on their site and redirects back? I like the way 
with eWay that I flip across from my site to theirs and it's obvious that it's 
theirs.

I really want the form that people enter card details into to be clearly their 
site and not mine.

Wanting to add PayPal now (to existing MVC app in VS2015). Been reading the 
developer doco and it seems like a convoluted mess. Presumed one of you must 
have been doing this lately.

I need to know the outcome for the next processing stage so it does need one of 
the notification-based options, rather than just HTML forms or something.

There seem to be endless discussions around IPN vs PDT vs Express. I want the 
customers to be able to pay via PayPal or by using a credit card when not 
PayPal members. I presume I can do this via the REST APIs.

Anyone got a “reader’s digest” version of the minimal code that’s required to 
simply add the ability to take a payment?

Regards,

Greg

I have integrated with Stripe as well and it is great. Very easy,
everything PayPal should be but for some reason isn't.

PayPal just needs to draw a line in the sand with their old API(s),
deprecate them, and build something new and easy like Stripe.

Re: PayPal Integration

I was looking at the options recently but have only gotten to the decision
made step, implementation will come later.
I chose https://stripe.com/au/features

Don't have anything like a readers digest post but their docs look good
with examples for many languages. I enquired about eWay some time ago and
have been getting spammed ever since. Told them I chose someone else and
still get their emails. I should hit the unsubscribe button now that I'm
thinking of it.
