Hello Goncalo,

The default way of using payment gateways in uCommerce is by doing "customer redirect".

This means that in the case of PayPal, the user enters credit card data on a page controlled by PayPal.

If you yourself have a page where the customer enter credit card data, your site needs to be PCI compliant. This is not an easy thing, and it is not something you would normally do.

So the recommended flow is:

Your site> User enters billing details
Your site> User selects the payment method

<<User is redirected to PayPal, for example>>

PayPal> User enters credit card data

<< PayPal validates the payment >>
<<User is redirected back to a confirmation page on your site>>

Your site> User sees a confirmation page.
At this point the "checkout" pipeline is run.

Re: dummy payment method service
The payment method service "Default Payment Method Service" is precisely a dummy service.
Once you get a PayPal account, you can set up the correct service and test the complete flow.

Kind regards,
Jesper

PS: I would recommend that you use the "PayPal Express" payment method service. That way you do not need the complicated setup of a certificate, etc. for PayPal "proper".

Thank you Jesper!

Yes, after posting the thread I have been doing some tests, and I successfully implemented the Paypal Express payment method.

Now, after I confirm the payment, Paypal gives me the error message :

Wrong amount! Expected 5,400.00, but was 5400.00

In the order summary, the value shows "5,400.00", with the comma separating the thousands. But after I confirm the payment, it throws that exception.
If I choose a product with a price lower thant 1,000.00, the paymant process completes without any error

Hello,

This is a bug! :-(

I have checked the code. It looks like we expect PayPal to return values with a thousands seperator. They do not.
Maybe they did at one point?

This will be fixed in the next release.

Sorry for the inconvenience!

And thank you very much for making us aware of this.

Kind regards,
Jesper 

Thanks again for your help Jesper!

Is there any way to override the sending information process, and fix this, for now?

Hi Goncalo,

You can create a custom class and register that service yourself by using the following code: 

   public class ExtendedPayPalExpressPaymentMethodService : PayPalExpressPaymentMethodService
    {
        public ExtendedPayPalExpressPaymentMethodService(CommerceConfigurationProvider configProvider, IOrderService orderService, ILoggingService loggingService) : base(configProvider, orderService, loggingService)
        {
        }

        public override void ProcessCallback(Payment payment)
        {
            base.ProcessCallback(payment);
        }

        public override Payment RequestPayment(PaymentRequest paymentRequest)
        {
            return base.RequestPayment(paymentRequest);
        }
    }

You also need to register it in configuration like so: 

http://docs.ucommerce.net/ucommerce/v6/extending-ucommerce/register-a-component.html

But we are in the process of redoing all payment gateways, and the release will be soon (hopefully next week). Maybe you can wait untill then, instead of writing a lot of custom code for something that will be fixed shortly?

Best regards

Morten

Hi Morten,

I'm experiencing exactly the same problem as Goncalo, is there any update on this? has there been a new release to fix this?

I'm currently using umbraco 6 with ucommerce version 4.0.3.13287 it looks like ucommerce has moved on quite a bit since then?

Thanks

Hello Chris, 

The fix is not release yes :-S We are in QA state so we expect it to be released this week (fingers crossed no impedements). It has been pushed quite some time now. 

is working on a reply...
