Split payment between 2 methods

[Graphics B]

Hi Community!

 

We need some help! 

 

We are looking for a plugin that will allow us to accept multiple payment methods for one order.

 

Anyone got any ideas?

 

THANKS!

Hi.

 

I posted a similar question a few months ago but had no luck with any replies:

https://www.prestashop.com/forums/topic/412550-split-paymentmultiple-payment-methods/

 

Let me know if you find any useful information.  Currently this is a real deal breaker for me...

unfortunately this is a real deviation from core features, and would likely require extensive development and customization.  also since there are some many types of payment (paypal, credit card, bitcoin, bankwire, check, COD, store pickup etc...), and multiple payment providers for each, it would be difficult to provide a module that would implement all of it.  you don't even mention what 2 payment methods you would like.

 

I believe that explains why you would never find one, and why you are not getting any replies.

 

this is really custom development and you will need to provide detailed requirements as to your expectations and needs.  I would start by explaining what payment providers you want the module to implement (ie... Paypal and Stripe, or Paypal and Braintree, or Paypal and Auth.net etc...).

 

Once that is determined, next determine how you actually want this to function.  Remember, Prestashop does not include this in their base product, so be prepared to provide requirements, here are some thoughts to get you started...

1) how should the checkout experience work.  How will it change to enable the customer to pay twice.

2) how should this reflect in the back office in the order listing and order detail pages

3) how do the various emails (order confirmation, payment accepted etc..) change

4) how do you process refunds or returns, which payment method is refunded if a single product is returned on a multiple product order

5) Is the customer choosing how to split the payments? Or is there some intelligence you want the module to implement for splitting the payments?

Thanks for the reply, Bellini.  I can't speak for the original poster, but for my purposes I need the following:

 

1.  PayPal and 1 major payment gateway service (E-way)

2.  Store Credit Option

3.  Gift Card Option

4.  Ability for customer to make payment for an order using the following combinations:

        a. PayPal only

        b. E-way only

        c. Store Credit Only

        d. Gift Card Only

        e. Combination of [a or b] + c

        f.  Combination of [a or b] + d

        g. Combination of [a or b] + c + d (this one can be removed if too complicated)

 

I currently use an e-commerce solution that has store credits and gift cards as standard features and allows these combinations by default with no modification of the code, so it disappoints me that these are not standard inclusions with PrestaShop.  As I mentioned earlier though, they are deal breakers for me though.  

 

The way my current site works is the cart tries to use the store credit balance by default during checkout, but the customer can opt not to use this should they wish.  There is also a "Use gift card" field that can be filled in which, when a valid card is used, will deduct the balance from the amount due, and the customer may use either PayPal or Visa, MasterCard via the Eway payment gateway.  

 

On the invoice all payment methods are itemized with their dollar amounts populated based on what was relevant to the order.  On the backend it is a similar situation where any particular payment method(s) are populated under the order details.

 

What do you think?  Thanks in advance!
