Clarifying ZC issues w/ Web Site Payments Pro: It doesn't work yet in v1.3.7

[2004g35]

Just do not use CardService International - their BBB record is deplorable. The PayPal express checkout works just great in Zen 1.3.7 - maybe you can get by with that until the Web Payment Pro module is working. I use 1st American and have no problems. HOWEVER, the merchant bank they use, Redmond in California, is nickel and diming me to death on hidden fees and charges. Watch out for companies that tell to 1.99% (or lower). It is amazing how many monthly charges actually come through at 3.33%. That being said - PayPal's 3% but no other surprises, is not so expensive.

It is a Zen Cart add-on available in the download section

paypal express is an included function in ZC that allows the user to go directly to paypal without creating an account first,

as for CSI we have NO issues with them at all,

FYI--I was planning to set up Website Payments Pro after researching many different options for a merchant account and payment gateway. It seemed to be the best solution for my needs, Paypal said it is fully integrated with Zen Cart, and decided this 2 weeks ago.

Then today, as I am ready to start getting it set up, I came here to see if there are any known issues with setting it up, and discover that it is NOT useable with Zen Cart (yet). The Paypal rep called me as I was reading this thread, and he insisted that it is fully compatible with Zen Cart, and he did not believe me when I said it wasn't fully.

Someone might oughtta let them know that the changes are not done, yet. I can't imagine I am the first one to have this come up. Anything I can do to help get this update together, I will do!

They are aware - but it is a big company and all of those that should know, don't always. Sorry.

I know it isn't your fault...I've dealt with large companies before, too

(And I'm pretty sure now I know why it isn't done yet, after a lot more research)

Thank you, Zencart devs, for the new implementation of PayPal Express Checkout ... it is especially neat how it can autogenerate a zen customer account. :)

Looking forward to Direct API support.
