Hej Guys,
I have a question here about automatic payment procedure...
Imagine if you have yet another product in eCom. I wanted to know how it could be possible let's say at 12:00 or maybe several times / day - this product will be added to a cart, than this cart must be pushed further to payment provider (I know about the risks of saving credit card credentials by myself etc...) and eventually making order. Just wanted to know what could I use for this kind of purpose, and what should I be aware of. I think It can be easyer to implement something like this with no payment provider. To start with we could also do that without one, and just send a mail notification instead.
Speaking of user, well there would be a place in the database where I would manage this user - automatic order request feature... and when the time comes (12:00) for example, I submit every order to every user that has entry in my table...
Any suggestions,
Regards,
Dmitrij

I'm pretty sure this would be illegal, unless you are PCI certified, so I'm not going to give you any suggestions on how to implement it :)

However, some payment providers (like the danish provider DIBS) already provides this as a service you can use. The customer can order a subscription (recurring payments) and everything is handled by the provider... including the storage of credit card information.

Hej Morten,

Ok, I see I should have not mentioned this thing about credit cart storage etc...

I am NOT trying to re-implement payment provider no...

What I am focusing on is this:

I have a user, I have a product.

Now how can I make it so that if today is 20ht of november kl. 12:00 - how can automatic order can be made and submited without any user interaction on periodic basis (once a month for example) for this specific user and this specific product.

Another part is payment provider. I wanted to use  standard payment provider functionality in DW, but they require user to grab his card and write their card number into the payment submition form. Well it is also an option of using "giro kort" payment, and than just send email with information that must be payed eventually in cash or bank transaction whatever...

The most important is the first part.

Eventually I would like to submit the order - that's it...

Now what's the best way to do this?

Kind regards,

Dmitrij
