talon177 Posted July 22, 2004 Share Posted July 22, 2004 Hi guys & gals, I've recently dealt with customer orders through PayPal and I'm wondering what's everyone's solutions on customers orders. For instance I use paypal and they take $0.30 + 2.9% per order, but the problem I'm having is how do you do only a partial refund, without the customer getting charged $0.30 + 2.9% if you send them money back. Also how can you do cc orders over the phone, because theres no where on paypal to do manual orders, the only way i know is by requesting money, but this takes time and buyers can't just pay right over the phone, you have to make sure they check their emails and pay. Now I was thinking of getting authorize.net merchant account, but they don't list their prices on their website, you have to call them. Is that because each person gets charged different prices? Also is it possible to do manual orders through their website or get a external cc processor. I'm looking for the most efficient and cost saving way to get a small business running. Anyone have any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

talon177 Posted August 5, 2004 Author Share Posted August 5, 2004 Has anyone tried Quickbooks Merchant Accounts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mpiscopo Posted August 6, 2004 Share Posted August 6, 2004 I use QuickBooks merchant account and am very satisified with it. The cost is minimal, no gateway needed either. You can't import cc information from osCommerce to QuickBooks, so you would need to manually copy and paste the information from osCommerce to QuickBooks. This also handles phone in orders nicely. You simply enter the transaction into QuickBooks, click on the icon to receive payment, and the cc is processed online and from within QuickBooks. I had a different merchant account prior to this and was very displeased with all the hidden charges and surprises associated with it.

The only downfall is that they charge $400 / $200 a year to access their api to make it automated. This is now fixed. We released a contribution today for Propay that automates the credit card processing without having to pay them fees.
