I am looking for someone to change the existing payment processor at my website, which is Clickbank right now, to PayPal. This work needs to be done FAST.
YES… THERE IS A CATCH!!!
I am a dude who has rather very basic knowledge of computers… as you can imagine it creates quite a lot of problems.
I have a website which I built with XSitePro software, it is one of these WYSIWYG ( what you see is what you get ), and it is nice and running.
Since it wasn’t possible to build a members’ only area with a “log in” with XSitePro, I purchased a DLGuard software from www.dlguard.com which is very good for this propose and quite easy to use. Of course, it is easy if someone know what he is doing… it was not a case for me.
The site has been integrated with Clickbank, which would be fine, except for that it takes exactly four and half weeks to get money from CB. For this reason I decided to change to Paypal.
DLGuard is design to be integrated with PayPal ( among others ) so it should be relatively easy. DLGuard software is very easy to use if someone has sufficient knowledge of computers and website building. And he must be able to read English.
THERE ARE TWO PROBLEMS which need to be addressed:
1. The site has existing members, who joined through Clickbank, and we need to keep them “undisturbed”.
2. How to make it work with PayPal ( THE CATCH )
So far when someone wanted to purchase a membership at my site he/she was directed to Clickbank payment processing page where he would complete the transaction.
Immediately after that he/she would receive two emails… one from Clickbank which was a purchase confirmation with an Order Number… and one from my site which was a sort of brief welcome message.
To make a long story short… the purchaser was/is able to log in to members’ only area using Clickbank’s Order Number as a Password and her/his email address as a Username.
AND THIS IS OUR PROBLEM… if we switch to PayPal, we will not have an Order Number any more. The new members, who will be joining the site, will need Password and Username to log in.
SO THE QUESTION IS… HOW CAN WE MAKE THIS WHOLE THING WORK?
I don’t know how to better describe everything… so please ask all questions you may have.
BUT… you must be experienced with this kind of things… there is no time for experimenting or learning here.
Thank you and good luck with your bidding.
