Hi,

I was wondering what could be done to enable a credit card charge at checkout. Currently the system uses the secure trading hosted method of payment. I was thinking of creating two payment methods and Debit cards and Credit cards with the credit card option adding 1.8% charge to the cost. However, it seems you can't have two of the same payment method as it causes issues (it stops the redirect to secure trading and stops working if there are two secure trading payment methods) - not sure we can get round that?

Is there an option at checkout where there can be a checkbox that says something like "Paying by credit card 1.8% fee applies" customer checks this and the charge is added before heading to secure trading?

Many thanks.

Hi,

Having several instances of the payment method with different prices/percentages is usually what we recommand to do in such cases.
However, the plugin developed and provided by secure trading ( www.securetrading.com/cart/hikashop/ ) doesn't support multiple instances of payment methods.
It would require migrating it to the new payment API we released 2 years ago.
You could potentially ask secure trading if they could support the new system. It shouldn't be too complex and we have a developer documentation with an example of such payment plugin available if they want to:
