emember with external gateway

[carlyblack]

Hi I’ve purchased estore and emember but now my client wants to use Paymate for processing the payments so I can’t use estore anymore.

My question is can i use an external gateway to accept payments for emember and have it redirect the client to a form to register for their specific membership level after their payment is approved.

Any direction on this is very appreciated.

thank you.

Yeah you can use any Gateway to accept the payment and hook it with eMember as long as you can code it up

Does PayMate have an Instant Payment Notification functionality similar to PayPal’s IPN? If it does then this shouldn’t be too hard as I can give you an IPN handling script which you can tweak to work with PayMate.

hi thanks for that. I don’t know if they have an IPN they have the ability to send you back to the website to complete the process but there isn’t a script for an IPN so to speak.

what would i need to hook this all up?

If they don’t have IPN then I am assuming they will POST the payment data back to the site after the payment. You will need to write a script that reads that data then verify the payment. Once you know it’s a genuine payment you can do the post payment operation stuff like create the membership account (if you follow the IPN handling script included with eMember, it will give you a good idea of what happens after the payment).

hey thanks so much for your guidance, yes they do POST the payment data back to the site.

I’ll have a go with following the script and let you know how I go in case there are any other people that need this help.
