Shopping Cart Website Plugin

Shopping Cart Website Plugin

Sell products via one the world's most popular payment solution, PayPal.

You can sell physical (with stock) or egoods, as well as receive simple payments (and send out just a receipt).

Also, you can now collect orders for offline order processing (invoice, purchase order, cheque, or offline credit card through your existing POS system).

• Online Payment Processing Payments are processed using your PayPal Website Payments Standard account


• Online Product Management All products are created and managed through the system's online administrative area


• Optional Product Attributes
Optional attributes can be created for individual products to allow additional information to be requested for a product purchase. For example if you are selling clothing you will need to know what size of garment is being purchased.

• Stock Management The online administrative area will allow you to enter the number of units you have available for purchase for each product


• VAT/GST Support Austrialian, UK, European Union taxation situations (gross+, gross including, net) supported.


• Scalability For small to medium applications.

Designed for PayPal Web Payments Standard

Accept payments easily with the world's most popular payment platform. No SSL certificates required!

With just a small configuration in your PayPal account, have PayPal notify your website when an order is completed. It really couldn't be easier.

Unlimited Products

There are no limits to the number of products that you can create for your website.

Unlimited Categories

Create as many categories to organize your products into as you need. Even create sub or sub-sub categories, each with their own meta-description to target search engines.

Discounts and Sales

Set up a sale that automatically discounts customer orders if they purchase a certain number of a given item. Even set up an start and end date for a sale, such as for seasonal promotions.

Accept Orders for Offline Payments

Don't want to accept payment right away? Want to use it to invoice a customer, or have them send in a cheque or provide their credit card for processing via your pre-existing POS credit card terminal? No problem, it does that too.

Stock Management

You can set stock levels if you only have a finite number of units for sale. If someone tries to order an item that isn't available (or more than are available), they will be notified of the stock level.

Optional Product Attributes

Does your product have a option size or color specifications? Maybe an engraving, or customer customizable text? Each product can be configured differently to allow your customer to specify the version of product that they need.

VAT Support

If you are a merchant from Europe or the UK, then you need to often show the price including the tax. This system allows for these cases. If you are a merchant from North America, it is recommended that you use the tax options configurable directly in your account at PayPal.

Secured Administration Dashboard

Manage your Shopping Cart features through a web based dashboard, secured by your username and password.

You can enable additional, optional, functionality of CAPTCHA, and bad login attempt lockdown for additional security. The administrative area can also be forced to use your SSL certificate for the highest level of security.

Sub Administrator Accounts

In addition to the Super Administrator account, you can also create sub-administrator accounts that only have access to specific parts of your administrative area. This is often helpful if you want to delegate the management of basic adminstrative duties, but not give out the "keys to the kingdom".

Configurable Syntax

Many of the buttons, menu items, and labels, are all configurable through our Syntax Configuration panel. Don't want to use the word "Login"? No problem, change it to whatever you like.

System Updates

Getting the latest version of the system has never been easier. Through the administrative area, you can see what updates have been made, and also fetch the latest files to be applied to your system. Free updates for the duration of your basic support life-cycle (1 year, but can be extended).

Server Requirements

As with all of our website plugins, the Shopping Cart system requires the following:

• Unix/Linux Web Hosting Platform
• Running the Apache web server
• With PHP 5+, and MySQL 5+
• Not compatible with WordPress, Joomla, Drupal, or Microsoft FrontPage Extensions
• or
• Windows Web Hosting Platform NEW
• Running the IIS or Apache web server
• With PHP 5+, and MySQL 5+
• Not compatible with WordPress, Joomla, Drupal, or Microsoft FrontPage Extensions

If you do not yet have web hosting, and need such an environment, we provide affordable web hosting plans that meet these requirements.

Software Requirements

The Shopping Cart website plugin is a server-side application and does not need software on your local PC or MAC to run. To install the system to your web server, you will have two options:

1. Use our web-based installer via your web browser
   
   or
   
   
2. Manually install using an FTP progam such as FileZilla, FTP Voyager, or Adobe Dreamweaver (PC or MAC). Microsoft Windows website editors (such as SharePoint or Expression Web) will not transfer certain essential files, so we recommend a dedicated FTP client such as FileZilla if you are using a MS web editor.

If for whatever reason you have trouble installing the website plugin to your web hosting space, we can install the software for you. Configuring the system will still be your responsibility.
