Configuring Payment Methods

In Plesk Sitebuilder, you can offer your customers the following payment options:

• Offline payment options:
  • Cash on delivery. Payment is made, when a product is delivered to a customer.
  • Check / Money order. A customer issues a check or a money order that will be sent to you by regular mail.
• Online payment options:
  • PayPal
  • Authorize.Net
  • WorldPay
  • BluePay
  • 2Checkout.com

This is the default list of available payment systems. Plesk Sitebuilder administrator can disable some of the payment systems and integrate a custom payment system to the eShop module.

To see the list of payment methods available to you, as the store owner, go to the Payment Systems tab on the eShop page of your Plesk Sitebuilder Wizard.

Using online payment options allows your online store buyers to pay using their credit cards. When a buyer selects an online payment system, he or she is asked to fill in the relevant payment details on the Checkout form. After the order is submitted, the transaction is processed by the payment gateway, and returned with a certain status (successful or unsuccessful), which automatically changes the order status in Plesk Sitebuilder to Paid, or Failed, correspondingly.

Note: For offline payment options, you need to change the order status manually.

To be able to use the online payment options on your site, you need to integrate these payment system gateways with your online store. In Plesk Sitebuilder, you do not need any programming or third party scripts to do this - you only need to register merchant accounts with the preferred payment systems and fill in your merchant account data in the appropriate fields in Plesk Sitebuilder.

At any moment later you can disable any of the payment methods you configure for your customers. When a payment method is disabled, it disappears from the shopping cart settings, with all integration settings remaining in the system in read-only format (grayed out). By default, all payment options are disabled.

Note: Before registering with online payment systems, refer to their web sites and make sure that the currency you chose for your online store is supported.
