Payment Module Required

[Porpoise]

On our existing (osCommerce) site, we use a Payment Provider called Pay Offshore. We do not collect card data, we merely pass the customer over to them with the cart details, they deal with the payment authorisation and pass the result back to us.

 

Unfortunately, they do not have a module for Prestashop, so I'm trying to find a similar module that we could modify. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I have not tried this, but looks like it might help,

Haven't heard of Pay Offshore before, but you might look at these two sites: http://www.modulebazaar.com/en/20-prestashop-payment-modules and http://www.presto-changeo.com/en/8-payment-modules

 

For my needs PayPal has been fine. Been using them for years, Pro and maybe advance could be options in North America. The only other one I've used is Authorized Net and that was fine too. Ended up costing more than PayPal so we dropped Authorize net.With PayPal I hear you need to keep a certain amount in your account, haven't ran into that issue though. I like the debit card and no need for an extra merchant account plus a card swiper, plus the virtual terminal and etc.. I like a one company solution.

Thanks Sages,

 

They look promising, I'll have to research them. We have just started accepting Paypal as well but they are quite a bit more expensive than Pay Offshore. As we have a physical store as well, we need the merchant accounts anyway. However, as PCI compliance costs thousands of pounds if you are storing card data, we prefer not to see the card data - we just hand off to Pay Offshore and they hand back with payment authorised (or not, as the case may be) including the 3D Secure authorisation which is required by the banks. So in essence, the "payment button" just posts the form data to their secure server and they pass the result back to our BO.
