internal shoppingcart - no paypal

[needhelp]

Does anyone know how to setup a shoppingcart-script that does not use paypal or only link to paypal? What I mean is a fully functional script that can be integrated in pixelpost.

that "simple shoppingcart" for pp v1.6 does not seem to work on v1.7 and as far as I remember, it only opened the local mail-client to send variables to an email-account.

but is there no other solution than paypal and a mailto:xy@xy.com - form?
what I was looking for is a simple "purchase"-button on the image-template-site that sends variables to e.g. "cart.php" and a form to fill in name and address.

thx for your replies!

It's much easier for a addon creator to simply work with a third party service like PayPal, and here's why.

1) You don't have to have an SSL certificate for your server
2) You don't have to sign up and pay a monthly fee to have a merchant account with a credit card processing company.
3) It's saves the developer from having to write a completely new shopping cart from scratch.

That being said, PayPal isn't the only service out there, in fact it should be very easy to modify one of the existing PayPal addons, and have it work with 2Checkout.com or other similar sites. Sites that simply provide you with a shopping cart, let you pay with a credit card, and don't require the user to have an account.

Hopefully that will help you.

might be okay for people living in the US, where payment by creditcard is as normal as sunset :-)

for people living outside the US, e.g. Europe, payment by creditcard is not that accepted.
lots of people only want to pay cash on delivery.
