Hey,

It's been a long time since I've posted here. I've searched the forums for "verisign" and come up with few listings and even fewer for "payflow pro." Does anybody have direct experience and know-how with setting up and integrating Verisign's Payflow Pro into a shopping cart. Please note, I'm not (interested in) using Miva Merchant or other canned carts.

If you don't have direct experience with it, I'd even appreciate a reference to somebody who does.

Thanks in advance.

Hello basi1,

log in to : https://manager.verisign.com/ with your username and password for your account.

there you will find documentation in pdf format on how to connect and use payflow pro.

You may need crypt-ssleay installed if you plan to use perl scripting.

It is really quite simple as they have a test card number and amounts to fail with and amounts to pass with.

So you can test the scripts and also set your account into test mode and log in and see what transactions

went through in test mode.

thanks cornball

Actually, I've already downloaded and installed the SDK from manager.verisign.com. At this point, I'm stuck on figuring out how to integrate it into my custom shopping cart software. Basically, I'm not clear on how to bridge the two. Please give me the kindergarten version :). Thanks.

Hello basi1, I have been out to mars and back.

Are you using perl ?

See : http://forums.devshed.com/t16872/s.html

This was a basic testing file I scribbled a while ago when I was integrating verisign on a web site.

The script was really only for testing an https post as verisign requests, and not the final script

with error checking and such.

Depending on what you have set up at verisign for each sale , means you have to post the verisign sdk name and value.

I think the line with print "Content-type: text/html\n\n"; is redundant ! in this example.

If you get stuck ask specific questions and post some code just ****** off usernames and passwords or other private info.

thanks
