Advice & Help needed... how to accept payments on my new webstore

[antkel23]

Hi guys GREAT FORUM!!!

i have a little problem. i purchased my own domain name with hosting. they supply cpanel & oscommerce. BUT the oscommerce install is messed up i try login into admin and its always a blank page... i tried installing 7 times and gave up. (each time tying something nw to my files as informed by other oscommerce forum members on various forums)

i tried emailing the supplier of my hosting but they refuse to email back.......

SO.... here i am thinking outside the box. i'm going to set up a web page the old fashioned way and integrate paypal payments (i actually prefer this way because looking for the template that suits me was also a nightmare, so this way i can design the site my way no problems.) thats all good i have that under control BUT i would like to offer the option of paying via "direct bank deposit"

my problem is to sell more then one item this way i think i need a shopping cart yeah? as i understand it if i add paypal buy it now buttons on my site all items go into a paypal shopping cart which means it automatically goes to paypal checkout. with no space to add a pay via direct bank deposit unless they buy items individually (how annoying and unprofessional for the customer)

would a script be out there for it? or is there anything that can help me out, or am i being difficult lol??

i really really appreciate your help guys!!
thanks in advance!!

Hi,

I would like to help so here is my 2 cents on this

There is a new “kid on the block” , called OneTouch Online Purchasing™ .This is a revolutionary patent pending online payment processing service for digital downloads.

With OneTouch Online Purchasing™ people can purchase any digital content (such as music, ring tones, games, video clips, wallpapers), from anywhere on the web, via their computer or their mobile handset, and charge it to an existing account at their phone company, mobile operator, bank or Internet service provider of their choice. OneTouch Online Purchasing™ eliminates the danger of credit-card- like identity theft.

OneTouch is a very user friendly system that requires very little configuration, so it is ideal for merchants of all sizes, can be set up on their website in a matter of hours and appears simply as an additional payment option on it. It can sit "side by side" with paypal.The advantage of using this application is the no chargeback fees and the higher revenue share you can gain from it. I would suggest going to the website-http://www.onetouchpurchasing.com to read more about this new payment processing service.
I really hope this helps some....

Hi,

We are currently in process with Bankinter, S.A. of Spain which also covers non-Bankinter customers through their epagado online payment product, and we are in process with Breathe Networks Ltd. In the UK.

We have sales efforts underway with operators in other countries, and we are looking forward to announcing successful sign-ups with them soon.

Paypal has the bank option - that's one of their main offers. They take money from one (sender's) account and send it to the receiver.

I have never used one of those installed carts, especially open source, but usually you should be able to download the source code and then put your colors into the cart and if you are good with coding, you could change more things around.

Hosting is usually just that - hosting. Anything else usually requires a lot more support and most people cannot afford that. The carts though have their own forum where others will provide you support as needed (and usually at no cost).

With the logging in part - did you run the set-up page and set up the mysql database? Did you create the mysql database via the hosting control panel?
