When using a GC, customer is forced to enter credit card info.

I was hoping that they could use a GC without credit card info. Is this possible. I tell it to apply the GC to the entire amount but still wants cc info.

Thanks

Re: When using a GC, customer is forced to enter credit card info.

I tried searching for the answer but could not find it.

Using Zen Cart 1.38a
Authorize.net SIM

The test gift certificate has been added to my account. It asks how much of it I want to apply to the total.. my total happens to be $7. So I put 7 in the GC box.

It still wants a credit card even though it is covered by the GC. I'm not sure if it is designed like that, or if something is wrong.

No special modules for payment or gc.. just the standard ones that come with Zen Cart.

When I first sent myself the GC I was able to checkout without using a credit card.. not sure what happened..

Thanks

Sometimes the GV calculation will have a problem if taxes or shipping or other charges are involved.
v1.3.9 contains several fixes to deal with that.
