Accept Credit/Debit Card payments for inputting into a Manual/Offline Card Processing

I want to allow the shop owner to accept Credit/Debit Card payments for inputting into a Manual/Offline Card Processing System.

Until now, I used to use Ceon Manual Card for zen 1.5.1. However, Ceon Manual Card does not support zen 1.5.6.

Is there another way?

Thanks.

What's the business reason for doing it via manual processing? Every bank and security expert will tell you it's a bad idea. Why do you "need" to do this?

Yes...my customer wants this plugin. He used this module for zen 1.3.9 and zen 1.5.1

Then He will upgrade zen 1.5.1 to 1.5.6.

So He wants to keep this module.

"I want it" is NOT a "business reason" to justify it. WHY do they "need" to process cards manually?
Are they just trying to be cheap by not paying for gateway access? Or is there actually a real reason why card payments "can't" be processed in-real-time for this store? There's gotta be a "why": what is it?
And have they told their bank that they're insecurely handling card data?

More secure and pass all audits you need to accept payments in real time otherwise you need to make sure all data securely handled as you will get a huge fine.
