Features
This Payment Module has been written to be as comprehensive as possible...
-
Fully Integrated Checkout - Great care has been taken to integrate the module fluidly with Zen Cart. At all points in the order process, the customer is kept fully informed and the next step to be taken is always clearly explained and easily understood.
-
Fully Integrated Order History - If a customer selects PayOffline as the payment method for an order, details of their current balance and a link to a payslip for any outstanding balance will be displayed alongside the order's information in their account area. If their payslip has expired, a notice to that effect is displayed.
-
Automated E-mails - By default the module is set up to automatically e-mail the store owner and customer whenever the status of the order changes.
-
PayOffline Help Page - The module comes with an information and easy-to-understand help page which gives an overview of the service and how to use it, as well as a link to a facility to allow them to find their local PayZone store and a list of FAQs.
-
PayOffline Info Sidebox - The module comes with a handy and attractive sidebox which makes it easy to alert your customers to the fact that PayOffline is a supported payment method, even before they've reached the checkout stage. It also lets them find out more about how PayOffline works by giving direct access to the help page.
-
Javascript Detection - If the customer's browser has javascript enabled then the help pages and payslip are displayed in an attractive popup window rather than a new window, for a better user experience. The payslip also then includes the ability to be printed with a single click!
-
Full support for all PayOffline callback types - All of PayOffline's callback types are supported by the module, so store owners and customers can be notified by e-mail whenever an order's status changes.
-
Storage and Display of Completed Transaction Information - The Transaction Information for any order processed using this module is available directly for viewing on the Order Details page for that order in the Zen Cart Admin.
-
Support for PayOffline's Test Transaction Server - The module can be tested against PayOffline's Test Transaction Server, avoiding any charges which would otherwise be accrued by using the Live Transaction Server. Once you are satisfied with your configuration of the module you can switch the checkout to being live at the click of a radio button!
-
Debug Support - Sometimes there can be problems sending and receiving information to/from PayOffline. The debug mode allows you to see what information was sent and received so you can check your settings. It is also useful when trying to determine why a site can't access its PEAR installation. Most people should never need this though and it is subsequently disabled by default.
-
Complete support for Zen Cart 1.3.x's Overrides/Notification System - The module is very easy to integrate as it makes maximum use of Zen Cart's overrides/notification systems.
