Protx (UK/Ireland Merchant Accounts)
|
This payment module provides everything a Zen Cart shop owner needs to accept credit/debit card payments over the internet. It uses the Protx VSP Direct service, which connects to a bank and checks the validity of the card details entered by the customer at the checkout. The customer remains on the store's website, they are not redirected to an external site to enter their details as with many other payment solutions, making this as professional a payment solution you could possibly use with Zen Cart! The whole checkout process is completely streamlined, therefore allowing store owners to have a store which works just as well as any of the large e-commerce websites! A Protx account must be used in combination with a merchant account. As of June 2007, the merchant accounts supported by Protx include those provided by the following UK/Ireland based companies: * Royal Bank Of Scotland * Barclaycard * Streamline * Lloyds TSB * HSBC * euroConex * American Express * Diners Club International * JCB Cards This module is very comphrensive yet easy to install and configure. As well as supporting Protx's latest protocols, it has full Multi-Currency Support, Visual Feedback of Javascript Validation, Icons for each Credit/Debit Card accepted and more... A full Feature List and Installation Instructions are included in the archive. Start accepting payments within 10 minutes! :) This module was first released in April 2006, © Copyright Ceon 2006-2007. |

A new version of the module has been released with an important security fix. ALL USERS SHOULD UPGRADE! Changes in 2.6.0 (right from version 2.4.0) are as follows: [ADDED] Option to enable/disable storage of entered card details added. If details aren't being stored, encryption is not necessary. [ADDED] Module now warns the user on the catalog side if the card details are being stored in the session but encryption can't be used. [BUGFIX] Debug output now always outputs information about the open_basedir setting for the server. Previously this information was (wrongly) only displayed if safe mode was enabled. [UPDATED] Encryption Keyphrase configuration option moved to the Security section and description updated to make things easier for new users of the module. [UPDATED] FAQs updated in documentation with much more comprehensive information about how to fix problems with a server's access to the PEAR:Crypt_Blowfish package. Changes in 2.4.4 (from version 2.4.4) are as follows: [ADDED] Option to enable/disable storage of entered card details added. If details aren't being stored, encryption is not necessary. [ADDED] Module now warns the user on the catalog side if the card details are being stored in the session but encryption can't be used. [BUGFIX] Debug output now always outputs information about the open_basedir setting for the server. Previously this information was (wrongly) only displayed if safe mode was enabled. [UPDATED] Encryption Keyphrase configuration option moved to the Security section and description updated to make things easier for new users of the module. [UPDATED] FAQs updated in documentation with much more comprehensive information about how to fix problems with a server's access to the PEAR:Crypt_Blowfish package. [ADDED] Checks for missing PEAR installation added. [UPDATED] Information about blank page upon checkout (caused by missing PEAR installation on server) updated to further clarify the options available to fix the problem. [UPDATED] Security issue identified with session clearing-functionality... all users should upgrade so that card details are cleared upon a successful checkout! [UPDATED] Minor documentation updates, including information about adding an extra code snippet to file for Zen Cart 1.2.x. [UPDATED] Documentation updated to use new display class for better on-screen rendering. Better print output formatting also added. (Tested in IE6-7, Mozilla 2.x and Safari 3.x). [BUGFIX] Quotes were missing in the SQL for the module's status check. Could cause an error when a payment zone was selected and a non-numeric country ID encountered (which is very rare, occurs only when all the zones for a store have been deleted!). [UPDATED] Version handling updated. Code moved from language file to main module. [UPDATED] Module now automatically disables itself if a configuration problem is found. [UPDATED] Error handling updated to allow usage of HTML in error messages (instead of coded HTML as was used previously). [UPDATED] Documentation updated with more information about what to do when module doesn't appear on the store catalog side. |

A new version of the module has been released to implement the changes necessary to support Protx's new systems which were brought in on 1st August 2007. Changes in 2.4.0 (from version 2.2.2) are as follows: [UPDATED] Module updated with URLs for Protx's new systems. [UPDATED] Support for new test card numbers and AVS/CV2 test values added. [ADDED] Support for new Authenticate Transaction Mode added. [REMOVED] Support for old Pre-Authorisation Transaction Mode removed. [UPDATED] Format of amount being sent to Protx locked down to use 2 decimal places regardless of the currency in use. [UPDATED] A warning is now displayed when one of the test Transaction Modes is being used. [UPDATED] Documentation (FAQs) updated with information about manual installation of the necessary Blowfish encryption files. [BUGFIX] Warnings if user has safe mode enabled fixed by checking if safe mode is enabled. However, as a result, communication time with Protx is then reduced to 5 seconds less than the script's max_execution_time, increasing the risk of timeouts. Safe mode is not good, disable it if you can and harden your server in better ways! :) [ADDED] The “Status” information for a completed transaction is now displayed alongside the other order information in the admin. |
