1Introduction

This manual explains the installation, configuration and usage of the payment module for Modified Shop and Saferpay.

Before beginning with the installation, please make sure that you are in possession of all necessary data:

  • You should have received a username and a password from Saferpay
  • Modified Shop payment module by sellxed.com/shop
  • Access data to your server and shop

In case you don't yet have a contract with Saferpay, you can gladly acquire it directly through us.

Note that you must use at least PHP version 5.6 for our plugins. PHP 8 or higher is currently not supported.

1.1Installation Procedure

In this document you will find all important information for the installation of the module. It is important that you strictly follow the checklist. Only by doing so, the secure usage in correspondence with all security regulations is guaranteed.

  1. Configuration of the basic settings of the payment module
  2. Configuration of the payment methods
  3. Conducting a test purchase
  4. Activate your account with Saferpay
Installation Service

Our payment plugins should have per default the correct settings for most of our customers' preferences. That means once you have entered the required credentials in the plugin configuration to connect your account to your website, the plugin should be fully operational. Should you be willing to receive detailed information on a setting you do not know, you may contact our support team who will be able to assist you further.

Our support team is at your disposal during regular business hours at: http://www.sellxed.com/support. Furthermore, you have the option of ordering our installation service. We will make sure the plugin is installed correctly in your shop: http://www.sellxed.com/shop/de/integration-und-installation.html

.htaccess Directory Protection

In order to test the module, any kind of directory protection or IP blocking on your server must be deactivated. This is crucial as otherwise the payment feedback of Saferpay might not get through to the shop.

1.2System Requirements

In general, the plugin has the same system requirements as Modified Shop. Below you can find the most important requirements of the plugin:
  • PHP Version: 5.4.x or higher
  • OpenSSL: Current version with support for TLS 1.2 or higher.
  • fsockopen: The PHP function fsockopen must be enabled. The plugin must be able to connect to external systems over the Internet.
  • PHP Functions: All common PHP functions must be enabled.

2Configuration Saferpay

2.1Migrating to JSON API

Please note that the old interface will be replaced by the new JSON API. In order for us to guarantee the long-term use of the module we have changed all of the modules to the JSON API. This has been tested extensively. The following steps are imperative to guarantee a continued smooth functioning of the payment module.

Dynamic Template

From now on only JSON API will be available and you need to follow these next steps carefully otherwise the plugin will not function properly. All orders that have already been authorized can still be canceled or refunded.

Due to the changes to the PCI Standard the hidden mode will no longer be available.The authorization will now take place via the new JSON API Payment Pages. In case you used the hidden mode you need to save the settings of your payment methods in your shop again after the migration or deactivate the payment method and activate it again.

Follow each step of the checklist carefully and make the necessary changes. (Each step is clarified by a screenshot further below.)

  1. Go to https://www.saferpay.com and log in with your username and password. On the right hand side you will find a dropdown. Chose Saferpay E-Payment and you will be directed to the backend of MySaferpay. (https://www.saferpay.com/BO/Login/).
  2. The access data for the JSON API can be created via Administration > JSON API. Here you can chose a password. The user will be generated automatically.
  3. You will also need a Customer ID. You will find this at the top right. Next to your username there is a number in brackets. ()It looks like this: e402487002). Your Live Customer ID consists of this number. Simply leave away the e and the last three digits and you will receive your Customer ID. It consists of six digits. In the example above your Customer ID would be 402487. (Compare with screenshot further below)
  4. For the Live Terminal ID you need to go to Settings > Terminals and in the bar at the top you will find an eight digit number. That is your Live Terminal ID. (In the screenshot it's the number 178xxxxx)
Figure 2.1: Login Screen for MySaferpay.
Figure 2.1: Creating a JSON username and password.
Figure 2.1: Create your Customer ID.
Figure 2.1: The Terminal ID can be found via Transaction > Payment.

2.2Backend Access for the Transaction Administration

The administration and the overview of transactions can be found via the following link:

From here you are able to manage and refund transactions. With the Professional Version you are able to do so directly in your shop. But please note that the status will not be synchronized. Orders that are refunded here will no longer be able to be refunded in you shop.

2.3Creating the JSON-API Access, Terminal ID and Customer ID

For the configuration of the main module with the JSON API you will need a new Customer ID, Terminal ID and the JSON API user and password. The following steps explain where you get this information.

  1. Go to https://www.saferpay.com and log in with your username and password. On the right hand side you will find a dropdown. Chose Saferpay E-Payment and you will be directed to the backend of MySaferpay. (https://www.saferpay.com/BO/Login/).
  2. The access data for the JSON API can be created via Administration > JSON API. Here you can chose a password. The user will be generated automatically.
  3. You will also need a Customer ID. You will find this at the top right. Next to your username there is a number in brackets. ()It looks like this: e402487002). Your Live Customer ID consists of this number. Simply leave away the e and the last three digits and you will receive your Customer ID. It consists of six digi. In the example above your Customer ID would be 402487. (Compare with screenshot further below)
  4. For the Live Terminal ID you need to go to Transactions > Payment and in the bar at the top you will find an eight digit number. That is your Live Terminal ID. (In the screenshot it's the number 177xxxxx)
Figure 2.1: Login Screen for MySaferpay.
Figure 2.1: Creating a JSON username and password.
Figure 2.1: Create your Customer ID.
Figure 2.1: The Terminal ID can be found via Transaction > Payment.

2.4Configuration of the Module

Navigate to the main module in your shop. Please fill in the following data into the corresponding sections:

  • Enter the JSON USername and Password
  • Terminal ID: Go to Transactions > Payment. There you will find a bar at the top right with an eight digit number. This is your Live Terminal ID.
  • Customer ID: You will find this at the top right. Next to your username is a number in brackets. It should look like this: (e402487002). Your Live Customer ID consists of this number. You simply need to leave away the e and the last three digits. In the example above your Live Customer ID would be 402487. Optional: You only need to set a password if you have the Professional Version. If you have not received a password you can leave this field blank.

The rest of the settings in the main module concern specific fraud settings to highlight transactions without 3D Secure. The default settings are correct for the most part.

2.5Activating the Payment Methods and Testing

Now you can activate the payment methods in your shop. (More information regarding the configuration possibilities of the payment methods can be found here). You no longer need to use the Saferpay test card for the tests. You can now directly activate the desired payment method.

Saferpay Testing

You no longer need to run tests with the Saferpay test card. For testing you simply need to activate the payment method MasterCard or Visa and use the published in the appendix for tests.

For Billpay there is a specific test procedure. To test Billpay, activate the payment method and switch to Live. In the configurations of the payment method Billpay activate the purchase mode and run the test purchases together with Billpay.

If the tests were successful, you can activate the module by setting the operating mode to live. Starting from now you can receive payments in your shop.

3Module Installation and Update in the Modified Shop Shop

3.1Installation

At this time you should already be in possession of the module. Should this not be the case, you can download the necessary files in your customer account in the sellxed shop (Menu "My Downloads Downloads"). In order to install the module in your shop, please carry out the following steps:

  1. Download the plugin. The download can be found in your sellxed.com account under "My Downloads".
  2. Unzip the archive you have just downloaded.
  3. In the unzipped folder navigate to the folder "files"
  4. For some shops there are different versions of the plugin provided. If this is the case open the folder which corresponds to your shop version.
  5. Using your preferred FTP client upload entire content of this folder into the root directory of your shop. For some shops there is a specific folder containing the plugins. If that is the case upload the plugin into this folder. Make sure that the folders aren't replaced but merely merged.
  6. If you haven't yet done so, log back into your shop.

3.2Updates and Upgrades

You have direct and unlimited access to updates and upgrades during the duration of your support contract. In order to receive constant information about available updates we ask you to subscribe to our RSS feed that we publish for your module.

More information regarding the subscription of this RSS feed can be found under: http://www.sellxed.com/en/updates_upgrades.

We only recommend an update if something doesn't work in your shop, if you want to use new feature or if there is a necessary security update.

3.2.1Update Checklist

We ask you to strictly comply with the checklist below when doing an update:

  1. Always do a backup for your database and your files in your shop
  2. Use always a test system to test the update process.
  3. Wait until all the files are copied to the shop, clear the cache if there is one in your shop and then visit the configuration page of the main module so that the update process will be initialized.
Do not do updates directly in the live environment

Please test the update procedure first in your test shop. Our support team is able and willing to help you if you experience problems with the update process. However, if you decide to perform the update directly in your live shop there is the possibility of a downtime of the shop of more than two days depending on the availability of our support if you do not want to book our complementary support.

Depending on the version it could be that the database has to be migrated. We recommend you therefore, to perform the updates in times when the shop is not visited too frequently by your customers.

3.2.2Update Instructions

Please always read the update instruction. Those instructions can be found in the changelog. If there are no special remarks, you can proceed by just overwriting the files in your system.

4Module Configuration in the Modified Shop Shop

The configuration consists of two steps. The first step is the configuration of the main module with all the basic settings (cf. Configuration of the Main Module). During the second step you can then carry out individual configurations for each payment method . This allows for full flexibility and perfect adaptation to your processes.

Create backups!

Please create a backup of the main directory of your shop. In case of problems you will then always be able to return your shop to its original state.

We furthermore recommend testing the integration on a test system. Complications may arise with third party modules installed by you. In case of questions, our support is gladly at your disposal.

Admin Folder

Please change the Admin Folder back to "admin" if modified during the installation. Alternatively you can use a not recommended and not update proofsolution, and modify our "hard coded" path strings. Please make sure to rename the "admin" folder of the module to exactly the same name on your webserver.

4.1Configuration of the Main Module

You will find the settings for the module under "Modules > (Export)-Modules > Saferpay Base Module" . Install the module and click on "Open Method Configuration". A new window should open up. Enter the individual options such as described above in the configuration of the administration interface of Saferpay. Should one of the options not be clear to you, you can find further information by moving the cursor to the question mark. The most central settings are explained in more detail in this manual.

4.1.1Create Pending Orders

You have the possibility of creating pending orders. In this case a temporary order will be created with the status "pending payment". This allows you to reserve the item in your shop and to transmit the identical order number as in the shop to Saferpay. In the case when a customer cancels his or her purchase, the order remains in your shop - except if you activate the option "Remove cancelled orders". This makes sure that cancelled orders are deleted regularly. If you do not wish to create pending orders, simply keep the default setting of xt:Commerce. However, this also means that the reference number (payment ID) with Saferpay doesn't correspond to the order number in the shop. You are, however, free to use both options.

4.1.2Database Encoding

If you haven't selected UTF-8 as a default for your database, this might lead to encoding problems with parameters with special characters. In this case you must select the option that data is UTF-8 encoded before being sent to Saferpay.

Saferpay API Password

If you are using the standard version of the module, then please do not enter anything into the Saferpay API Password; except if Saferpay has explicitly told you so.

If you are using the professional version of the module, then you require the password. Should you not yet have received it from Saferpay, then please contact the Saferpay support directly.

4.1.3Order Prefix

With the option order prefix you an define your own order scheme for the transmission to Saferpay. This option is especially useful in a multi-store set up so that you can identify which shop a transaction in the back-end of Saferpay belongs to. The tag "{id}" is automatically replaced by consecutive order numbers.

4.1.4Order Prefix

With the option order prefix you can define your own order scheme for the transmission to Saferpay. This option helps you identify to which shop a transaction the backend of Saferpay is related to. The tag "{id}" will automatically be replaced be the consecutive order number.

4.2Direct Capturing of Transactions

The option "Capture" allows you to specify if you wish to debit payments directly or if you first wish to authorise them and then debit the payment at a later point.

Depending on your acquiring contract, a reservation is only guaranteed for a specific period of time. Should you fail to debit the payment within that period, the authorisation may therefore no longer be guaranteed. Further information on this process can be found below.

Different settings between Saferpay and the module

It may be that settings saved in the payment modules overwrite settings saved in Saferpay.

4.3Uncertain Status

You can specifically label orders for which the money is not guaranteed to be received. This allows you to manually control the order before shipment.

4.3.1Setting the order state

For each payment method you may select in which state the order should be set to depending on the booking state. This is the initial state of the order.

4.4Optional: Validation

Note: It can be that this option is not visible in your module. In this case just ignore this section.

With the option 'Validation' you can define the moment when the payment method should be made visible to the customer during the checkout process. This setting is relevant for modules where the usage depends on the customer's compliance with specific preconditions. For example, if a solvency check has to be carried out or if the payment method is only available in certain countries. In order for the credit check or address validation to also work with European characters, the charset of the "Blowfish mode" must be set to "UTF-8" for certain PSP settings.

You have the choice between these options:

  • Validation before the selection of the payment method: A validation verification is carried out before the customer selects the payment method. If the customer does not fulfill the requirements, the payment method is not displayed
  • Validation after selection of the payment method: The verification of the compliance occurs after the selection of the payment method and before the confirmation of the order
  • During the authorisation: The validation verification is carried out by Saferpay during the authorisation process. The payment method is displayed in any case

5Settings / Configuration of Payment Methods

5.1General Information About the Payment Methods

The plugin contains the most common payment methods. In case a desired payment method is not included per default, please contact us directly.

In order to be able to use a payment method, it must be activated in your account with Saferpay as well as in your shop. Information about the configuration of the payment methods can be found further above.

Below you can find important information for specific payment methods that deviate from the standard process.

5.2Information on Payment Status

For each payment method you can define an initial payment status (status for authorized payments etc.). You hereby define the payment status for each state depending on the processing type of the order (captured, authorized, etc.). It's the initial status which the order assumes. Depending on the mutation carried out by you, the status can change.

Important info regarding Order Status

Never set the status to Pending Saferpay or any similar pending status which is implemented by the module.

5.2.1Order status "pending" / imminent payment (or similar)

Orders with the status 'pending Saferpay' are pending orders. Orders are set to that status if a customer is redirected in order to pay but hasn't returned successfully or the feedback hasn't reached your shop yet (Customer closed window on the payment page and didn't complete payment). Depending on the payment method these orders will automatically be transformed into cancelled orders and the inventory will be cleared (so long as the Cronjob is activated). How long this takes depends on the characteristics of the payment method and cannot be configured.

If you have a lot of pending orders it usually means that the notifications from your webserver to Saferpay are being blocked. In this case check the settings of your firewall and ask the Hoster to activate the IPs and User Agents of Saferpay.

5.2.2Order status "cancelled"

Orders with the status "cancelled" have either been set to that status automatically due to a timeout, as described above, or have been cancelled directly by the customer.

5.3Billpay by Saferpay

In order to be able to use the payment method BillPay correctly, it is important to carry out the steps below in the correct order.

  1. Make sure that the payment method has been in your customer account with Saferpay
  2. Before using BillPay you must complete certain integration tests. In order to do so, switch the Saferpay module to live-mode
  3. Activate the payment method "Saferpay OpenInvoice" and go to Integration Tests in BillPay and set the BillPay Approval to "Approval Mode". BillPay's employees will then test your shop. Once these tests are complete, switch off the "Approval Mode". The payment method can now be used

5.3.1Code Adjustments for the MasterPass Integration (xt:commerce SP 2.1)

In order for the button "Pay with MasterPass" to appear in the shopping cart when using external checkout with address transmission, the following adjustments in the code have to be made. If you prefer to simply use MasterPass as a regular payment method without address transmission, no changes are necessary.

The files containing the necessary code adjustments can be found in the zip files in /changes/*.txt. Please paste the codes contained in these files into the location described below.

5.3.1.1Adjusting shopping_cart.php

Please copy the code snippet from the file /changes/shopping_cart.php.txt in front of the following code:

$smarty->assign('language', $_SESSION['language']); (ca. line 140)

5.3.1.2Adjusting templates/[current-active-template]/module/shopping_cart.html

Please copy the code found in /changes/shopping_cart.html.txt in front of the tag-{/if}:

5.3.2Further information

MasterPass with External Checkout cannot be used in combination with vouchers. If the customer wants to redeem a voucher, she has to go through standard checkout.

6The Module in Action

Below you will find an overview of the most important features in the daily usage of the Saferpay module.

Figure 6.1: Transaction Information

6.1Useful Transaction Information on the Order

6.2Using Invoice Details of a Processor

In the following context you can view or embed the "payment details" of for example an "Open Invoice" transaction:

6.2.1Modified Shop Order Confirmation (E-Mail)

The "payment information" will be visible in the default "order confirmation e-mail" of Modified Shop.

6.2.2Modified Shop Invoice (PDF)

Due to technical limitations, it is currently not possible to display the "payment information" here.

6.2.3Modified Shop-Backend (Transaction details)

You can view the payment and transaction informations in Modified Shop under Modules > Modules > Saferpay Base Modules > open main module configuration > (above) Transaction Management.

Figure 6.1: Transaction details within Modified Shop.

6.2.4Modified Shop Success-Page

Due to technical limitations, it is currently not possible to display the "payment information" here.

6.3Trigger Payments in the Modified Shop backend

With the Modified Shop payment module, orders can be triggered directly from within the shop, so called Mail Order / Telephone Order (MOTO).

  1. Go to the customer overview and activate a customer. By clicking on "Create Order" a new window opens up for the creation of the order
  2. Click on "Edit" and select the item and the options
  3. In the field payment method you can select the preferred payment method and click on "Submit Order"
  4. Depending on the authorisation method that you have saved for the selected payment method, you will either be redirected to the Payment Page of Saferpay or the mask for the credit card will appear such as in the image below. Enter the credit card data of the customer

6.3.1Refunding Orders

In order to refund orders, open the transaction information (cf. above). There you will find information on the transaction. Further below you will find an input field in which you can enter the amount you wish to refund. By clicking on "refund", the refund request will be transmitted to Saferpay. You no longer need to log into the backend of Saferpay.

Figure 6.1: refund button

Executing a refund will not change the status of the order.

6.4Capturing / Cancelling of Orders

Please note

The transaction management between your shop and Saferpay is not synchronised. If you capture payments with Saferpay, the status in the shop will not be updated and a second capturing in the shop is not possible.

6.4.1Capturing / Cancelling of Orders

In order to capture orders, open the transaction information (cf. above). There you will find information on the transaction. Further below you will find an input field in which you can enter the amount you wish to capture. By clicking on "capture", the capture will be transmitted to Saferpay. You no longer need to log into the backend of Saferpay.

By clicking on "Cancel Transaction" you cancel the transaction and the reserved amount is immediately released on the card of your customer.

Figure 6.1: capture oder cancel button.

6.5Usage of the Alias Managers / Token Solution

With the Alias Manager, your customers can securely save their credit cards with Saferpay for later purchases. You can enable this by activating the option "Alias Manager" in the configuration of the Payment Method. The customer can then choose from his or her saved credit cards without having to re-enter all the details.

Figure 6.1: Alias Manager
Please pay attention!

The usage of the Alias Managers requires the activation of the correct option with Saferpay. To do so, please contact the support directly.

6.6Setup a Cron Job to Activate the Timed Operations

To activate the timed operations of the plugin (e.g. update service, deleting pending orders, etc.), please activate in a regular request to the file saferpaycw_cron.php. The regular call triggers the appropriate actions.

Here we suggest you use a Cron Engine like for example EasyCron. That way you can This allows you to open the file ( URL ) with an external service.

7Testing

Before switching from test to live mode it is important that you test the module extensively.

8Errors and their Solutions

You can find detailed information under http://www.sellxed.com/en/faq. Should you not be able to solve your problem with the provided information, please contact us directly under: http://www.sellxed.com/en/support

8.1Orders are not stored in the shop

In case the order is not stored in your shop in spite of you successfully entering the credit card information at ____ paymentServiceProviderName____ , please perform the following steps:

  1. Make sure that you have tested with the payment method called Saferpay Test Card.
  2. Make sure that your shop is reachable from an external server without IP restrictions or password prompt.
  3. It may be that the URL is too long and therefore can not be processed by PHP. In this case, increase the suhosin.get.max_value_length in your PHP configuration.

Shouldn't you be able to solve the problem by performing the above mentioned step, do not hesitate to contact our support team.

8.2Payment methods are not displayed in the checkout

In case the payment methods are not shown in the checkout even though they have been enabled, then please change in the language file in the respective language folder (/lang/LANG/LANG.php) the following entry (on line nr. 50): define('LANGUAGE_CURRENCY', 'EUR');

Set here the default language currency code according to the default language settings in your shop.

8.3The Referrer URL appears in my Analytics Tool

When a customer and the notification are redirected via Header Redirection, the Saferpay Referrer URL might appear in your Analytics Tool thus hiding the original traffic source. However, most Analytic Tools are able to minimize this problem.

In case you are using Google Analytics as reporting tool, this step by step guide may help you to exclude the URLs: under bullet point 4.

9Error Logging

The module will log different unexpected errors or information depending on the configured level. If there is any issue with the module, this log can help identify the cause.

9.1Log Levels

You can configure the log level in the Saferpay settings.

  • Error: Logs unexpected errors only. (Default)
  • Info: Logs extended information.
  • Debug: Logs information helpful for debugging.

9.2Log Location

The log messages are visible in the Modified Shop backend under "Modules > (Export)-Modules > Saferpay Base Module > Log Messages".

10Advanced Information

This section of the manual is for advanced usage of the module. The content is for advanced users with special requirements. Everything in this section is optional and not required for the daily usage of the module.

10.1Transaction Object

This section describes how to extract information from a transaction, if you need it for further processing. E.g. you require more information of the transaction for further processing an order in your ERP system.

The code snippets in this section assume your script resides in the root folder of the shop with the default shop folder structure.

Have Modified Shop initialized in your script, this is required for the database connection.
include ('includes/application_top.php');
Include the module main file and module classes.
require_once DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT.'admin/includes/SaferpayCw/init.php';
require_once DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT.'admin/includes/SaferpayCw/classes/SaferpayCw/Entity/Util.php';
Now you can load the transaction and then extract the transactionObject.
Load the transaction by Id:
$transactionById = SaferpayCw_Entity_Util::findTransactionByTransactionId($transactionId);
$transactionObject = $transactionById->getTransactionObject();
Load the transaction by external Id:
$transactionById = SaferpayCw_Entity_Util::findTransactionEntityByTransactionExternalId($externalId);
$transactionObject = $transactionById->getTransactionObject();
Load transactions by Order ID:
$transactionsByOrderId = SaferpayCw_Entity_Util::findTransactionsEntityByOrderId($orderId);
foreach($transactionsByOrderId as $transaction){
	$transactionObject = $transaction->getTransactionObject();
	//Do something with each object
}
