Accepting Credit cards on Version 3.9

I am using zencart version 3.9 for the first time. I have a merchant credit card account and accept credit cards manually which I then just run the charges through my machine.
On older versions of zencart there was a credit card module and customers could use the credit card option and I would get some of the details on a email and other details from the website.
However, this module is not included in version Zencart 3.9.
Do anybody know the procedure for accepting offline credit card payments with zencart 3.9

Re: Accepting Credit cards on Version 3.9

Thanks for the info. However, there does not seem to be a credit card module where a customer can enter their credit card data and it just get emailed to me so that I can charge the card with my own merchant credit card account. This was possible in old zencart versions but not in 3.9.
The FAQ pages say that it is not included because of security issues but if you install a SSL certificate this should solve the security problems.
Thanks

Re: Accepting Credit cards on Version 3.9

That module has been removed in 1.3.9 for very valid security reasons. SSL isn't enough to overcome the sloppy handling of CC info inherent in that method.

If you must, though, the mod misty pointed to will add that function to your store.
