Hello again…

If you have upgraded your WP Ecommerce installation to a Gold version, you’ll notice you get more payment gateway options. One of these new options is an integration with Authorize.net, and by default (WP Ecommerce versions 3.6.6 and earlier) the Authorize.net gateway only passes the credit card number and expiration date over to Authorize.net.

Some prefer to pass over the CVV (the 3 digit number on the back of the credit card) number as well. So, I have integrated that into a file for you. All you have to do is download the file and replace the existing “authorize.php” file with the one you download. It is located here: “wp-content/plugins/wp-shopping-cart/gold_cart_files/merchants/authorize.php”

So download and replace, that’s all there is to it. Then your shopping cart checkout page will ask for the CVV number, pass it on to Authorize.net and verify it for purchases using Authorize.net.

   Hi,
   I have not added the gold mod yet. It gave me all sorts of trouble 6 months ago, when I first started playing around with it. This is another example where a feature is added to say it is available without really completing it. This is the first time I have ever heard of a gateway implementation that did not pass CVV without hacking it.
