Thread: OsCommerce and SagePay

Here at merchantaccounttalk.com we realize just how frustrating it can be to figure out how to integrate your site with Sage Pay. That's why we've created this guide and PDF walk through.

1. Downloading The Add-On

Not all versions of OsCommerce support SagePay as standard. If your version doesn't then you will need to download it from the Internet. The address for the SagePay OsC add on is [url=http://addons.oscommerce.com/service/sage_pay]osCommerce Community Add-Ons[/url]. If your version of OsC does support Sage Pay then you can simply turn it on.

Select the type of add on that you want to use depending on your account limitations.

• Sage Pay Form - Accept payments by transferring customers to the SagePay site
• Sage Pay Server - Accept payments and process your own invoices
• Sage Pay Direct - Capture credit card details on your site. This is seamless but will require PCI DSS checks.

2. Installing the Add-On

Follow the instructions inside the zip file to integrate the file with your store. This module is very easy to install since you don't need to overwrite any original files. This means that you can easily upload the files without needing to replace anything. You should use an FTP client such as the free coreftp ([url=http://www.coreftp.com]Free FTP client, secure file transfer software[/url]).

3. Activating the Add On

Once the module is installed it will then need to be activated so that you can start using it. Log into your admin panel on Oscommerce by visiting [url]www.**yourdomain**.com/admin[/url] and entering your username and password.
Once you are logged in you will see a menu bar down the left hand side of the screen. Click on the "Modules" option.

a. Selecting the SagePay Module
Select the SagePay module by clicking on it in the Payment modules list.

b. Installing
Click the install button at the right hand side of the screen. Wait a few seconds for the module to be activated.

c. Editing
Click on the edit button once the sage pay module is installed. This can be seen in Fig 3. Clicking the edit button will then allow you to adjust various settings.

d. Entering Information
Fill out the form with all of your information including the logon name and password for your sage pay account. It’s a good idea to set everything up using the Simulator server to start off with. This way you can ensure everything works as it should.

All of the fields are pretty self explanatory. The Customer email message is the body of the message that you send to customers who have successfully paid for something on your site. The sort order controls where the payment option for Sage Pay is found on the shopping cart of your site.

Once all of the information has been entered you can click update to save the changes.

SagePay is currently running a promotion for new customers using oscommerce. It's possible to get three months free by using the coupon code "osc223".

This means you can get a discount worth £60!

Is it possible to use this discount code if you don't use Oscomerce? Would really like the three months free you see!

Hi Shirley,

Not sure on that one. I doubt it though because they ask for the type of store you're using when you sign up.

You could try talking to a sales person to find out whether they will offer a similar deal.

It's only available to new accounts anyway.
