DAP-Supported Shopping Carts

Ravi and Veena,
We’ve launched a test version of our site. Things are working very well. Hurray!

I have questions for down the road … we have an ongoing membership fee that we’re processing using authorize.net ARB. I’m wondering about how to handle changes in credit card information, say when a card expires or when the cc number changes. I’d like for people to handle this BEFORE the card expires or if they know the cc number has changed. Suggestions?

Thanks!
–Karen

Ravi and Veena,

Is the new version 4.0 going to have the Plimus Plugin updated?, please let me know, I think that would be very helpful for international users, as im in Mexico and had problems with my PayPal account.

Please let me know.

Thanks
Carlos B.

Carlos,
Yes, the DAP version 4.0 will have support for Plimus.

Karen,
DAP does not handle changes in credit card information, or notification to users when a card expires or when the cc number changes. This will have to handled within your authorize.net merchant account.

Hi, has this changed or is this feature coming? Any pro-active tools like this would have tremendous value to DAP. Please update me. Thanks.

“Karen,

No plans to add this feature but we will add support for automated cancellations /refunds (where the cancellation / refund request can be triggered by DAP to say authnet) so you can mange it within DAP and not have to login to your merchant account to manage.

There is more value in adding features to support the members that are staying behind rather than developing features around cancellations/refunds.

Any idea if you’re going to integrate with BrainTree Payments systems? It’s a great platform that 37Signals and many other SaaS companies use.

I’d love to see it apart of DAP!

Hi Chris,

With DAP 4.1, we have created support for any payment systems integration with DAP as long as the payment system supports IPN notification via HTTP post.

See – http://www.digitalaccesspass.com/doc/3rd-party-shopping-cart-integration/

Any chance you’ll integrate with Magento Go in the near future?

Lia,

We might not add support for it in the near future but you can use the DAP IPN scripts to integrate it yourself.

See – http://www.digitalaccesspass.com/doc/3rd-party-shopping-cart-integration/

So you’re saying that DAP is not the all-in-one solution for the shopping cart then?

If it serves as a shopping cart, then you should be able to pull the order and click refund so it processes the refund and then, does a chargeback to the affiliate commissions just in case affiliate commissions were paid?

Right?

How do you handle this besides a lot of extra work?

John,

>>So you’re saying that DAP is not the all-in-one solution for the shopping cart then?< < Sure, you could say that. DAP does have its limitations when it comes to being a specialized shopping cart, and it does not have some of the advanced features like say, 1SiteAutomation.com. But we realize that, and we're not looking to add certain features any time soon (like quantity, color etc). We're also not going to be storing credit card information of the user on your site - which is what will allow you to do refunds and cancellations right from within the DAP Admin Dashboard on your site. Cancellations is very simple - you don't have to do anything within DAP at all. See http://www.digitalaccesspass.com/doc/cancellations-and-refunds/

>>How do you handle this besides a lot of extra work? < < I don't know about calling it a "lot of extra work" - it's only a couple of extra clicks, but yes, extra clicks for sure. See http://www.digitalaccesspass.com/doc/cancellation-or-refund-requests/

Unfortunately, we’re not going to be changing that any time soon, because storing credit card information within DAP on your site comes with its own security issues and protocols, which you won’t be technically qualified to deal with, and we can’t do it for you because DAP is meant to be a self-hosted solution – and not a fully-hosted solution like 1SiteAutomation.com . So for those who want those extra features, 1SiteAutomation.com is the way to go.

And DAP already does reversal of affiliate commissions for refunds. So that’s not an issue.

Is there an issue with Auth.net ARB and Godaddy?

I can’t find any information on how DAP integrates with Google Checkout. I would be grateful if you could provide such information. Thanks in advance.

Irfan,
You will find a script called dap-gc-responsehandler.php in your dap folder..

Change this line in that script:
$server_type = “‘sandbox”;

So to point to production, change it to:
$server_type = “‘production”; // change this to ‘production’ to go live

Update DAP setup -> config -> Secret Authorization Key to be
Your GC merchant_id|YourGC merchant key (pipe delimited)

Point the GC IPN handler to http://yoursite.com/dap/dap-gc-responsehandler.php (replace yoursite.com with the name of your site).

Create a DAP product and make sure the item name that you are trying to sell via GC exactly matches the product name in DAP.

That’s it.

>>Is there an issue with Auth.net ARB and Godaddy? << None that we are aware of.

I am using Godaddy as your web host, and if they disables a mandatory PHP library (imap) on all their servers and since DAP is unable to process the recurring order email notifications from 1ShoppingCart. can i just have 1SC manage my payments and use DAP for my content drip, autoresponders only?

If DAP is not able to connect to the email account where you have the 1sc recurring emails, then dap will not be able to automatically extend content access upon successful payment. If the access is not extended, then the users wont have access to paid-for content.

If you want to continue to use godaddy, 1sc and dap, then you can setup recurring product as a one-time product in dap. Set it up as a recurring product in 1sc and use 1sc to sell it.

You can still use day-based dripping in dap.
So the users will have an access end date of 12/31/9999 upon purchase (as it’s defined as one-time product in dap).

If a user cancels payment, you will have to manually reset their access end date in dap. The content dripping will control what they get to see based on their membership life.

Hello,

Do you have any plans to integrate with AlertPay?

Thanks.

No.. but if AlertPay supports IPN, we will consider doing the integration as a custom project.

Looking for step by step Nanacast DAP integration.
All of my affiliates are in Nanacast.

Thanks.

Hi Harlan,

Hi Guys

I just came across this new and exciting credit card payment service called Stripe.

stripe.com

Apparently, it makes it really easy to allow website to start accepting payments. All major credit cards covered and seems to be quite good.

Perhaps integrate this with DAP?

Regards

I forgot to mention. Here is their website:
https://stripe.com/

Am currently using paypal standard, however, cannot use multiple currencies (the account is set to dollars, if pounds come in the transaction doesn’t get completed unless it is manually accepted). Would paypal Payments Pro solve this issue? Otherwise what would you suggest? Many thanks in advance.

You will have to check with paypal if you can set it to manually accept currency other than dollars automatically.
DAP allows you to send currency at button level to paypal (you can specify the currency the button should use) but the transaction will only be completed in dap if paypal accepts the transaction and if it does not require manual approval in paypal.

Is 1ShoppingCart integrated as well as the white label? One of my clients uses 1ShoppingCart and is looking to get started with DAP. He’s been with 1SC for a long time already.

Hi Alex,

Yes, our white label http://1SiteAutomation.com is basically the exact same back-end as 1ShoppingCart.

Now, 1SC has many other store-front products that are not part of our white label. So if you just want just their core cart – that includes the shopping cart, autoresponders and broadcasts, affiliate module, upsells, etc – then you can just sign up for http://1SiteAutomation.com and you can then get DAP for free.

See http://DigitalAccessPass.com/documentation/?page=/doc/get-dap-for-free/

Hi Veena&Ravi

Just a wishlist addition for integration with http://www.stripe.com. They have a nice payment system which handles all gateway and merchant requirements, so you’re going to get a lot of small business who want to avoid merchant acct fees signing up for it. I have one client on DAP that I’d like to move but they don’t have budget for custom integration.

Hope you can table it for sometime soon!

Thanks!

Hi Jeff,

Yes, integration with stripe is on our wishlist as well. We expect to have it integrated with dap in about 4 months.

Thanks,
Veena

Oh 4 months that’s great!

Thanks Veena

do you have a way to integrate with shopping carts not listed?

we currently use Payza as our payment processor and that integrates with only a few shopping carts

>>
