Gift Certificate on Step 2 must select payment method ?

hi there,

I'm currently using gift certificate/gift voucher module and on payment information (Step 2) I have enough voucher balance to cover my entire purchase cost, but no matter what I have to enter/input my credit card details ?

For your information, I have disabled all payment module except for additional eWay payment module & zen cart free charge card.

So, during Step 2 of payment information, I only want to pay using my Gift Voucher Balance, and I do have enough credit to pay the entire payment, but the problem it keeps asking for my credit card details for my payment method.

Is this the way zen cart works ? So no matter what happen, the customers are required to select a payment method , for my case it would be the credit card payment since this is the only method that I have enabled on the payment module.

Cheers, erik.

Did you already have a GV Balance or did you need to redeem code first to enter the balance when you were checking out?

Right now, if I have a GV Balance of $40.00 and an order for $29.99 I just enter the amount and can check out, without selecting a payment method ...

Which Payment Module do you have installed?

Hi Ajeh,

I do have enough balance to cover the entire payment, My GV balance is currently staying at 26.85$ and I have applied the amount of 10.15$ to cover the payment.
Afterwards, I pressed the "Continue to Confirm Order" button, however a pop up box appeared which says:

Errors have occurred during the processing of your form.
Please make the following corrections:
* The credit card number must be at least 10 characters.

I have also installed and enabled additional eWay payment module and enabled "The Zen Cart FREE CHARGE CARD" payment module.

Or perhaps, did I delete something from the PHP code without realizing it .....

any help guys ?

I have the same problem on our site and I think the code needs to be rewritten.

Perhaps a work around would be to have an payment option which reads "Use gift cerficicate" which is a duplication of "Pickup in store". This would get around the form validation. You'd also need to add a note near the gift cerficicate for users to click "Use gift cerficicate"in the payment options.

Zen Cart 1.3.8a

Hello I am having this same issue. Is there still no fix for this?
If the paypal payments pro module is enabled i can't continue without "The credit card number must be at least 10 characters." when using the gift certificate.
If i enter payment info and the gift certificate covers the full cost i can't continue because it give me a paypal error that you can't pay for something that is $0.

Any help would be much appreciated!

I am having the same problem with Zen Cart 1.3.8a and offline credit card processing and PayPal Express enabled. There's no way to go apply the gift certificate without choosing a payment method, even when you owe $0. Can this be fixed?

As a workaround, we're telling the customer to choose PayPal as the payment method.

Is there a way to add a "gift certificate" payment method to choose instead of "credit card" or "PayPal" when you don't owe any money? Extra work for the customer, but better than what's happening now. Thanks!

Any comments from the developers?

Are you getting the same results if you only have Credit Card Offline cc and/or Check/Money Order moneyorder installed ...

What I am trying to see is if this is only with the PayPal modules installed ...

NOTE: setting them to NOT Enabled is not the same thing as testing with them as REMOVED ...
