checkout form

Just saying… storing credit card numbers on your site or creating a form that emails them to you is a big no-no. You’d get slammed for PCI stuff by your bank if there were any sort of issue.

I strongly recommend using a plugin to run credit cards through a processor like Stripe. The form is filled out on your own SSL-enabled site, but all you store is a token that represents the transaction.

Hi,

Normally, it is not safe to store customers credit card data in your site. It is not safe and legal as well. If you still want to store credit card data, you have to make your site PCI/DSS compaliant. And it is a very long process.

So I suggest you should use some local payment gateway. If it is not a good solution, you can store all info accept credit card number in your store. And when you want to charge their credit card you just call them and get number on phone.

I hope this helps.

To elaborate on what afsanamultanii said about local payment gateways, there are gateways available where the customer places all payment data on a form on your site, inserted by the gateway. Behind the scenes, the payment is processed and the results displayed on your site, usually right on the same form. Your customer never leaves your site, but you never have direct access to the payment data, it’s out of your hands and you have no liability in this regard. I cannot think of any valid reason why anyone would not go this route unless they are so big that PCI compliance makes sense.

hey guys thanks for you replies,
I live in Israel and the credit card companies who work with wordpress take alot of % of the transaction and a high amount of monthly paid money.

i have a small buisness with a register machine here and its not affordable for me to hire their support because of this.

so I understand from you that i have no other way to get the money proccessed on my physical register machine?

Does the payment processor you use offer any sort of web interface? There may be a plugin for it.
