PayPal Integration

Posted on: December 15th, 2010 by ryan 4 Comments

Overview

PayPal is one of the most commonly used credit card processors on the web. It has over 87 million accounts and continues to grow each day. PayPal is simple to use and it’s guaranteed to be safe for both you and your customers!

How It Works

PayPal has a few different type of accounts to choose from when creating your own account- the accounts are as follows:

Personal Account
Premier Account
Business Account

Personal: Recommended for individuals who shop and pay online, or wish to send or receive personal payments for shared expenses such as splitting of dinner bills or rental charges. We don’t recommend that sellers open a Personal account to receive online payments, as the transaction fees are higher. Premier: Recommended for casual sellers or non-businesses who wish to get paid online, and who also make online purchases. Business: Recommended for merchants who operate under a company/group name. It offers additional features such as allowing up to 200 employees limited access to your account and customer service email alias for customer issues to be routed for faster follow-ups.

How To Integrate PayPal

The only information needed to give to the developers when integrating PayPal with your website is the user-name or email address that is used when logging onto your business PayPal account. This allows the developer to set up many types of payment plans that you want to provide your customers. Whether you want a “buy now” button, an “add to cart” button, or a simple “donation” button. For more information on the different type of payment buttons please click here. Your PayPal password should never be giving to any developer. If they ask you for such, please be cautious of their motives. For the “buy now” button you may need to log into your own account and give this code to the developers, if you need help doing this PayPal offers technical support.

Summary

PayPal is a very convenient way to process payments from your customers. IBCS corp highly recommends PayPal because it is so well known and trusted through out the world. IBCS corp can and will be happy to integrate PayPal with your current or new website, so you can easily collect payment from your customers. For more information please contact us and we will be happy to answer all your questions!

Aussieessentials.com receives immediate response from new Joomla website!

Posted on: July 30th, 2010 by ryan No Comments

iBCScorp worked with Steve and Kara Havertz to create http://www.aussieessentials.com. This site was developed using Joomla to sell a product called SPLAYD®. The SPLAYD® is a unique device that combines a fork, spoon and knife into an easy to use utensil. Steve and Kara wanted this website to sell the SPLAYD® so that others can enjoy this handy object as much their family does. IBCSCorp has extensive experience in working with Joomla and their Joomla experts know exactly what is needed for your business. iBCScorp can customize Joomla CMS to meet the requirements of smaller websites to make them easier to manage and manipulate for their clients. Steve and Kara are able to manage the content themselves and can add their own products and product details to their site. This Content Management System (CMS) met their needs well and they are very happy with their site. Shortly after the site went live Steve said:

“We have started getting sales. Our site is actually showing on the first page when you search for the mini splayd. We have had a couple of people find us just by doing a Google search which is cool. Thanks again.”

–Steve

This is just one of iBCScorp’s many satisfied customers!

Steve and his family are now able to sell and share the SPLAYD® with everyone around the world.
