Re: payments from email



A question somewhat adjacent to this topic:
One of the reasons we moved to this accounting bundle was to gain the
ability to accept credit card payment from our clients/customers. 

Our scenario would be a client calls after receiving an invoice and asks
to pay it with CC.
We obtain the clients CC info over the phone and process it (via Ledger
SMB) for said invoice.

It goes without saying we have not gotten that far yet. Is anyone doing
this ?
(The goal is to get AWAY from PayPal and use our own merchant services)

As a follow up to my original question under this same subject dated
June
12 to the devel list. Turns out a user can add one.
How I added a paypal "buy it now button"

This will add a button that pays an invoice total using your merchant
paypal account. We use project numbers to identify different contracting
jobs for the same customer so substitute you own variable there or
remove
the projectnumber_1 line.

This does not allow a customer to create an order just pay a bill for
work
you already performed etc...

Edit the invoice.html file in templates.
Append this code to the end of your invoice.html

<br>
<form target="_blank" action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr";
method="post">


<input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_xclick">
<input type="hidden" name="business" value="..hidden..">
<input type="hidden" name="amount" value="<?lsmb total ?>">
<input type="hidden" name="item_name" value="<?lsmb projectnumber_1 ?>">
<input type="hidden" name="item_number" value="<?lsmb invnumber ?>">
<input type="hidden" name="invoice" value="<?lsmb invnumber ?>">
<input type="hidden" name="bn" value="YourBuisnessNameWithNOspaces">
<input type="image"
src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/btn/btn_buynowCC_LG.gif"; border="0"
name="submit" alt="PayPal - The safer, easier way to pay online!">
<img alt="" border="0"
src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/scr/pixel.gif";
width="1" height="1">

Tips:
Do not use the paypal button creator.
Insert your data for YourBuisnessNameWithNOspaces and
..hidden..

Email the invoice and use the html template.

Enjoy accepting plastic and getting paid faster but loosing a %.
