I am wondering if a SSL certificate is required/recommended for the BluePay Module? (http://www.bluepay.com/developers/payment-modules)
Here is my dilemma. I have a zen store already set up with this BluePay module and all is working fine. This store already has a security certificate installed and dedicated IP adddress (for the SSL) and it works just fine.
Now that my client wants a second site with a completely different BluePay account, I am wondering if I have to have another SSL certificate to connect the Bluepay for the new site. The module does not say anthing about SSL. Obviously settting up another certicate and dedicated IP would be more work, and would then need its own hosting account if this were the case.
Bluepay said it was "Recommended" to have a SSL, but if no credit card information is being passed, really how serious is it? Of course they would say it's recommended. The bluepay settings have a secure URL to send the client for payment, an account ID and secret key. Seems to be just like Paypal on the surface, in that you send to another URL to pay and then it sends the order information (minus the CC info) back to the store. What do you think? Do I really need a SSL for this module?
