Setting up Payment Methods in MyOrderDesk Follow
There are many ways to accept payment in MyOrderDesk. In this article we will look at how to use the Payment Method area (Admin > Shopping Cart > Payment Methods), cover some of the more popular payment methods you might want to use, and link to various other articles that will go into more detail on the various methods.
The Payment Methods area allows you to create both Integrated (ie: credit cards), as well as non-integrated (ie: pay on terms) payment methods.
It is important to note that after creating your various Payment Methods, you will need to go to Users & Groups and turn the method On for any Groups that you would like to have the method available.
Creating a Payment Method
Select the New button, and then select from the various choices supported.
Integrated Payment Methods
The Integrated methods that are included are listed below (Select the linked text for specific details on setting up each of the methods):
- Print Reach Pay - Print Reach Pay allows users to pay with credit and debit cards during the checkout process. You can allow your customers to store their credit cards on file, request payment after the order is placed and have access to MerchantTrack where you can link directly from MyOrderDesk to your own private portal where you can manage your transactions and even enter virtual transactions.
