I note that Paypal are now offering a hosted solution (Website Payments Pro Hosted Solution) for taking credit card payment. Any plans on implementing this in the near future?
Many thanks
Julian
that really doesn't make any sense to attempt to integrate into opencart. If you are using pro then you want the customer to stay on your site if you have opencart then you already have a webhost, if you want them to go offsite for the payment just use standard or express.

That's what I thought, but there are problems with PayPal standard:
1) If they are using an email address that is already assigned to a PayPal account they are not offered the credit card option.
2) Our German customers are not even offered the credit card options.
3) Our abandonment rate is higher because some people just leave as soon as they see the mention of PayPal account.
We just applied for a Pro account, but our host want £175 for each ssl cert, they don’t install ssl certs from anyone else, so we are faced with the choice of moving host or using hosted credit card payment.
Thanks

well I would say if your hosting is charging that much for SSL certs you need to just move to another host and use the paypal pro api.
just curious if they charge that much for SSL what are they charging for hosting? I imagine you'd be better off all the way around with a different host anyone who charges that much for SSL are just rip off artists.

Hi,
They charge £4.00/month for hosting, so not too bad. I am very happy otherwise with the service, I have had my fingers burnt with other hosts before, so I would be reluctant to change, but a will have to make a decision.
I did in fact by the certs from Godaddy, after being told I could use them, then found out I could not! The thought of moving hosts is stressing me out!
Plus we use multi store and that means I need UCC ssl certs, plus the basic email package is no good with Godaddy, they don’t have a cpanel... Knowing my luck multi store will cause problems with the certs. Have either of you used ssl with multi store?
Cheers for your help guys

godaddy is fine for the certs, but I would absolutely NOT use them for hosting.
