hey all. i was wondering what some of you think would be a great start for a shopping cart that integrates paypal for a web software. and that after they go through the payment process they will beable to create there account
i am just starting to get into ecommerce things.
thanks
Do you need a freelancer to develop this web portal.
you can contact me on we also work on online payment solutions like paypal.
well i am not sure. i know my php stuff and am developing the software. but i have never used a payment intergration
It usually works the other way around.
The shopper first needs to have an account, and only then he can proceed to payment.
The shopper must usually identify himself before paying, because most payment methods (such as paypal) require the shopper's email address and/or name, address, and such, before he can use their payment system to pay.
Once you have all this information, you could as well create an account for the shopper. You can, however, decide to activate his account, only after receiving payment.
If you don't mind using a fully done and supported cart instead of creating your own, zen-cart is widely used and enjoyed and has paypal, google checkout, and more built in.
thanks i will look into that. i don't want to build my own i just want to be able to integrate it into my software
