Well we have had no complaints thus far (it is in beta atm), in fact we have received some really great feedback (giving in the range of 7-9 out of 10).
In terms of paypal, it looks like we have to use it for hosting so when we get to that part, it will probably involve a redirect to a hosted payment page. We provide verbiage stating our security involved and specifically not doing anything with the payment details and letting the respective sites handle all that. Again, so far so good. In addition to this, a lot of customers have requested recurring payments and having their details saved by us. By details, they mean their credit card details so that we can re-use. The implementation of this seems secondary to them and they are opting for convenience and assuming security. Again, we don’t store any payments/credit card details and never will but these requests from customers don’t even mention paypal and/or secure storage, they just assume it. I think this says something about perception in general though. In addition, we have had the odd payment gateway failure here (we use TNSI locally) and when it happens we actually have customers email through their entire credit card details (yes name, date, card no and CCV) to our accounts team to pay their monthly bill because they could not be bothered with the hassle of retrying later or perhaps left it too late or something. Yes, it is a thing. Smart business people are doing this. Bottom line out of all this (for us anyway) is convenience seemingly trumps security, security is a given. I guess until something happens that is security related. - Glav From: ozdotnet-boun...@ozdotnet.com [mailto:ozdotnet-boun...@ozdotnet.com] On Behalf Of DotNet Dude Sent: Tuesday, 15 September 2015 3:07 PM To: ozDotNet <ozdotnet@ozdotnet.com> Subject: Re: PayPal Integration Totally agree with Greg here. Unless you are a major site that I somewhat "trust" (as if) I won't purchase if there is no paypal option that goes to paypal.

As a consumer, I’d be happier entering details directly into a PayPal, Stripe, eWay, etc. site. Otherwise, how do I have any idea how you are handling them? It’s one of the reasons that I’m seeing more customers wanting to use PayPal. At least their card details are only stored on a single site.

We have recently integrated with Stripe, Braintree and eWay. Out of all three, Braintree and stripe are the easiest. eWay has a lot of redirecting going on. Braintree and stripe client portions are very good. eWay’s site/portal is a little messy while the others I found more straightforward. Also, we recently had a visit from Paypal to integrate with them (even though Braintree are affiliated with them). They only have a hosted payment option and we actually didn’t want that at all. All 3 (eWay, stripe and Braintree) go through a single form on our site but we don’t host or collect any payment creds, it is just our custom form. Paypal do have a new payment system which requires no initial setup. You simply provide an email and payments go to paypal under that email. They are ‘held’ or ‘buffered’ there until such time as the full setup is completed which actually makes setup really easy from a customer perspective. - Glav From: ozdotnet-boun...@ozdotnet.com <javascript:_e(%7B%7D,'cvml','ozdotnet-boun...@ozdotnet.com');> [mailto:ozdotnet-boun...@ozdotnet.com <javascript:_e(%7B%7D,'cvml','ozdotnet-boun...@ozdotnet.com');> ] On Behalf Of DotNet Dude Sent: Monday, 14 September 2015 4:59 PM To: ozDotNet <ozdotnet@ozdotnet.com <javascript:_e(%7B%7D,'cvml','ozdotnet@ozdotnet.com');> > Subject: Re: PayPal Integration Anyone used braintree?

Very easy, everything PayPal should be but for some reason isn't. PayPal just needs to draw a line in the sand with their old API(s), deprecate them, and build something new and easy like Stripe.

Wanting to add PayPal now (to existing MVC app in VS2015). Been reading the developer doco and it seems like a convoluted mess. Presumed one of you must have been doing this lately. I need to know the outcome for the next processing stage so it does need one of the notification-based options, rather than just HTML forms or something. There seem to be endless discussions around IPN vs PDT vs Express. I want the customers to be able to pay via PayPal or by using a credit card when not PayPal members. I presume I can do this via the REST APIs. Anyone got a “reader’s digest” version of the minimal code that’s required to simply add the ability to take a payment?
