Setting up an account with Linkpoint.
Click
here to create an account with Linkpoint.
In your Ecommerce Template admin, go to the Payment Providers
section, click "Modify" for Linkpoint and
enter your Store number and select from the drop down menu whether
you want the credit card details to be taken on the Linkpoint
secure server or whether you want to process the transaction on
your own site (this will require your own SSL certificate and
you may want
to read about setting up on a secure
server). Make sure
the system is set to "Enabled".
Now you need to login to Linkpoint and select the customize link
and set the return url to http://www.yourstore.com/thanks.asp and
the declined return URL to http://www.yourstore.com/sorry.asp
You will also need to set the Order Submission Form URL, which
will be the URL of your cart page eg.
http://www.yoursite.com/cart.asp
. . . or . . .
https://www.yoursite.com/cart.asp
Finally select the check box that says "URL
is a CGI script".
Do this for both the approved return and declined return url. Update
the url list on my linkpoint admin section so that it would accept
the transfer. For those who care to know simply copy the
url from the checkout page on your site and paste it in the url
section of the linkpoint account page. If there is more than
1 url that you are connecting put a space between them.
Troubleshooting
Make sure the following has been done in the Linkpoint administration:
You need to login to Linkpoint and select the customize link.
Now set the return urls to http://www.yourstore.com/thanks.asp
- make sure you check the boxes for automatically return to specified
URL for both thanks.asp
and sorry.asp pages.
Finally select the check box that says "URL is a CGI script".
Do this for both the approved return and declined return url.
Make sure you have set the pathtossl in vsadmin/includes.asp
if taking the orders on your own server as in the help here.
Please do read our guide here on credit
card fraud.
