Elieen - I would like to test this code too. Please let me know how I can download it and test it.

Thanks,
Sarah

Hi,

I'm pretty sure it's in the latest version of CiviCRM.

I have CiviCRM version 3.1.2, but I do not see Link Point or First Data as a choice when setting up a payment processor.

You're right - it is set for 3.2

http://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-5335

You can back-port the patch from the jira issue though

Having said that it seems like the CiviCRM team have done the work on getting the files sorted for release so it might be almost there in 3.1.2 - check CiviCRM/Core/Payment & see if the files are there - if they are it might just be a case of adding it in

Hi Eileen,

In developing a new Drupal / CiviCRM, we installed your LinkPoint / First Data Global Gateway payment processor.   So far, initial test payments (no actual transactions) have been successful.   Thank you!

Is this payment processor production-ready or is it still in beta?

What are the issues involved in developing a recurring payments feature?

Hello,

I have had people report back that they have been happily working with it live and have submitted it for core.

The code is very similar to a number of others in principle. I think from memory it is an XML based POST style processor - probably based on the eWay code so it doesn't introduce a lot of unknowns.

I can't recall what support Linkpoint has for recurring payments but I the main reason I didn't recurring it was because I wrote the code for a very small amount of money which I never actually received.

In general the recurring code has been less trodden than the normal payment processor code and they are less consistent with each other so for that reason I generally think it takes about twice as long to extend a processor to cope with recurring contributions as it does to write the code in the first place

Eileen, I installed the new version of CiviCRM as of today (ver 3.1.4), and checked the Core/Payment/ for the file and it is not there...

Is there any way you can send me the file as well? I really hope they can include the processor in the core files since this is a very common processor for big banks.

Thanks
Andres

Hello all,

A client of mine would like to have recurring payments set up in the Linkpoint / First Data processor. I am considering taking on this project, but I am not sure my client will have the budget to fully fund it. I'm putting out feelers to see if anyone would be interested in helping to fund this. On completion, the code will of course be available to the community and will hopefully be included in future versions of CiviCRM

Eileen, I haven't looked into licensing. Is it okay to use your code as a base? Do you know if anyone has made any effort to set up recurring payments through First Data?

Thanks,
David

There is no problem using my code as a starting point.

I don't think anyone has extended it yet

dbenton: Is this something you're currently working on? We have a client that's interested in tracking recurring payments with the first data payment processor. Would love a status update if you've made some progress. Thank you!

Thanks for the reminder to update this thread, reperry. Unfortunately we didn't make any progress on this. We were planning to go ahead with it, but then the client decided they'd rather switch gateways than pay for the development. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.
