Hi Everyone I am developing a sinatra application that can handle CC processing and have hit a snag finding a Payment Gateway library that will support my use case.
I would very much like to use ActiveMerchant as it supports multiple payment gateways, and this is a requirement for my client. However, it appears that the main branch of ActiveMerchant does not support what I will call "Card Present" transactions (borrowing from Authorize.net terminology). A Card Present transaction means that the customer is swiping their card using some kind of card reader, as opposed to just typing in their card number into a web form. In my use case, mobile devices are talking to this sinatra back-end application. It seems that ActiveMerchant purposefully is keeping Card Present transactions out of the main branch. Or maybe Card Present transactions are just not as important in the web-only world. I'm wondering if any of you out there that have developed mobile applications might have experience in dealing with these Card Present transactions and if you have recommendations for libraries / gems ? Non Ruby solutions would also be welcome. I was also wondering if any of you could recommend a good forum for mobile developers since it seems that Card Present transactions are more of an issue with mobile developers. -- -- SD Ruby mailing list [email protected] http://groups.google.com/group/sdruby --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "SD Ruby" group.
