Authorize.net & Nopcart
Hello,
I am creating a shopping cart for a chamber of commerce client using NOPCart. I chose this because it allows me to include the hundreds of different pricing options for membership fees. This is the first time I’ve used NOPcart and I have never integrated a payment gateway with it.
Currently the cart seems to be working properly up to the checkout page. You can view the cart now at:
www.burbankchamber.org/html/joinNEW.asp and also www.burbankchamber.org/html/luncheonsNEW.asp
The user selects the product (membership fee) from the appropriate category and pulldown menu and selects “Add to Cart.”
The user is taken to managecart.html to check cart contents.
Then after selecting Check Out, goes to checkout.html and fills out name and company information. On submitting this form, the user is taken to checkout.php for a confirmation message.
Two emails are sent through checkout.php; one to the user and one to the cart owner (currently using my email address).
Project Requirements:
1)I need to integrate Authorize.net with this shopping cart. (Authorize.net is one of the processors that this cart supports, but I don’t have experience integrating it).
2)I need to make sure the user is directed to Authorize.net to make their purchase by credit card and is returned to the chamber of commerce website.
3)I need to make sure confirmation emails are sent to the user and the cart owner (either through NOPcart as I have now or through Authorize.net and that these emails contain the User’s information (name, address,company, phone, email and product purchased).
I just want to be sure that the cart contents (including the product descriptions) and user information gets passed to Authorize.net and that the user experience is as easy as possible when using the shopping cart.
If you have experience with NOPcart and have suggestions on anything that may need to be changed on my end to facilitate this project, I welcome those, too.
