Adding Braintree payment module

[marton_1]

I have been using Paypal Express for years and it always worked well, I use the Zen Cart built in PayPal Express.

Now since installing the Braintree module, it seems that PayPal Express is now running over the Braintree Payment module since I now get PayPal messages over Braintree.

Now I have a new problem, PayPal Express does not display the correct price?!

If, for example, I order an item for 29.90 then I have a low price extra of 5.00 and delivery of 9.00 so the total is 43.90.
When I initiate PayPal Express then PayPal displays the price to pay is 34.55!
When I actually approve the payment then PayPal takes the correct 43.90?

I do not see where the 34.55 comes from, if PayPal somehow missed the delivery cost of 9.00 then the price would be 34.90.

If I do not use the PayPal express button on the Shopping Cart page but go through longer payment process then PayPal displays and works correctly.

My ideal solution would be to continue to use the Zen Cart built in PayPal Express module, is there some way I can configure this?
I suppose I could deconfigure the PayPal Express button on the Shopping Cart page but then I would lose a valuable function

I started using Braintree because credit card payments over PayPal were losing me customers because PayPal demanded some customers to open an account which they did not want to do!

I am using v155d with the standard Green Responsive template on a Unix server.
my web site here in English language!

BTW, thanks to whoever suggested I set up a Zen Cart test site on my Web host server; it was a bit tedious but it works well (other than confusing the google adwords statistics!)

Nobody commented, would be nice to hear a comment? Even simply from an existing Braintree user who does not have this problem with PayPalExpress?

Problem over.

I went into the Braintree Control Panel and turned off PayPal and then set it up again and now the prices are showing correctly :)

Now I am getting this log message for Paypal "update_status
Module disabled due to zone restriction. Billing address is not within the Payment Zone selected in the module settings."

I have selected the same payment zone as I used successfully for several years with the built in Paypal express module, it is named EuropeandCH and the detailed setting ls in the picture below.
Customers from Switzerland (Schweiz) are now being rejected.
Suggestions welcomed

Now I had three customers rejected by PayPal "due to zone restriction". I tried ordering myself with PayPal on my live site using my Swiss details and it worked OK.
I asked Braintree and they claim it is not their problem!

Here is a typical zen cart log message [HTML]Sep-02-2017 23:20:54 (1504387254)
update_status

Sep-02-2017 23:20:54 (1504387254)
update_status
Module disabled due to zone restriction. Billing address is not within the Payment Zone selected in the module settings.

Anybody know where does this 150xxxx number come from? Is it a PayPal number and can I trace it somehow?

I see someone with a USA address did some testing on my web site, thank you!

USA is not a valid zone for my site so will not work correctly!

I will move this question to the PayPal Express checkout forum, please ignore here.

I no longer get these Zone failure messages, I compared the Braintree Module braintree_api.php with the Paypalwpp module and changed anything that was different from the Paypalwpp, see comments with "MH".

    /**
     *  Sets payment module status based on zone restrictions etc
     */
    function update_status() {
        global $order, $db;

        // if store is not running in SSL, cannot offer credit card module, for PCI reasons
				
        if (IS_ADMIN_FLAG === false && (!defined('ENABLE_SSL') || ENABLE_SSL != 'true')) {
            $this->enabled = False;
            $this->zcLog('update_status', 'Module disabled because SSL is not enabled on this site.');
        }
       
        // check other reasons for the module to be deactivated:
				// added "&& isset($order->billing['country']['id'])) {" from paypalwpp MH
        if ($this->enabled && (int) $this->zone > 0 && isset($order->billing['country']['id'])) {

            $check_flag = false;

            $sql = "SELECT zone_id
                FROM " . TABLE_ZONES_TO_GEO_ZONES . "
                WHERE geo_zone_id = :zoneId
                AND zone_country_id = :countryId
                ORDER BY zone_id";

            $sql = $db->bindVars($sql, ':zoneId', $this->zone, 'integer');
            $sql = $db->bindVars($sql, ':countryId', $order->billing['country']['id'], 'integer');
            $check = $db->Execute($sql);

            while (!$check->EOF) {

                if ($check->fields['zone_id'] < 1) {
                    $check_flag = true;
                    break;
                } else if ($check->fields['zone_id'] == $order->billing['zone_id']) {
                    $check_flag = true;
                    break;
                }

                $check->MoveNext();
            }

            if (!$check_flag) {
                $this->enabled = false;
                $this->zcLog('update_status', 'Module disabled due to zone restriction. Billing address is not within the Payment Zone selected in the module settings.');
            }
            // added one } from next section MH
						}
            // module cannot be used for purchase > $10,000 USD
            $order_amount = $this->calc_order_amount($order->info['total'], 'USD');

            if ($order_amount > 10000) {
                $this->enabled = false;
                $this->zcLog('update_status', 'Module disabled because purchase price (' . $order_amount . ') exceeds Braintree-imposed maximum limit of 10,000 USD.');
            }

            if ($order->info['total'] == 0) {
                $this->enabled = false;
                /* $this->zcLog('update_status', 'Module disabled because purchase amount is set to 0.00.' . "\n" . print_r($order, true)); */
            }
        }
    // removed one } from this section MH

My Mastercard customers are being rejected with the message the first four characters of the credit card number are incorrect.

Here in Switzerland the first four characters of the credit card number are 5487.

I assume the credit card number is pre-checked before being sent to Braintree?

Where are the numbers for this checking stored?

BTW, Visa works OK.

The actual message I receive is

braintree_api
CC validation results: Die ersten 4 Ziffer der Kreditkartennummer, die Sie angegeben haben, lauten: . Ist diese Nummer richtig, können wir diese Kreditkarte nicht akzeptieren. Bitte korrigieren Sie ggf. die eingegebene Nummer oder setzen Sie sich mit Ihren Kreditinstitut in Verbindung.(-1)

So the first four numbers of the credit card are not displayed; is this some sort of security thing or does it mean the module lost the actual numbers somewhere?

[DrByte]

When the form data is submitted to your server, the payment module takes the card number and passes it to the cc_validation class to be sure that it matches the card types that you've configured your store to accept in Admin->Configuration->Credit Cards.

But, since the error message you quoted isn't showing *any* of the rejected digits, it's possible that the value is blank when being submitted.

Or, it could be that the translation logic in your language files is missing the placeholder that displays the card number. (First test for that is to switch to english and see if the same message also doesn't show the digits.)
