Please i want an E-commerce site, which application would you advise?

Zen Cart or OS Commerce

Ok, Thanks, Please how do i integrate a payment gateway on the site?

Contact us and we will provide the shopping cart and install it for you. We will also configure up to 5 payment Gateways for you.

Contact us here: fisherking48<at>yahoo.com

u can also develop ur own shopping cart if u like, i developed a similar project in my first year which i used php and mysql it was really good.

The are already build cms like os commerce, u dont have to worry about security.

You can get the best Quick Shopping Cart service at XnYnZ.com and make the Online Shopping site.

You can also sell your product on ChrisvicMall(www.chrisvicmall.com). Register as a retailer and start uploading your product image and info on ChrisvicMall.

ChrisvicMall is a new market platform where users can buy or sell online without worry if the buyer will send the product or if the seller won't pay. Both buyers and sellers are protected.

As a seller, always take your shop everywhere you go and chat with your buyers from the comfort of your home. Get alert when someone buy's your product and know exactly which product they are interested in buying. Beat your competitors and build your online customers.

As a buyer, you can buy any item even when the price tag is in dollars. If you saw a product you like in another website but the prices is in dollar or you are afraid that the seller might not send the product to you if you make the payment, tell the seller to upload the product on ChrisvicMall so that you can be able to buy it and also have complete control of your money until the seller send the payment.

You also have the opportunity of buying from different sellers at once and pay at once saving you the time.

I have used opencart for years and have no complaints about it (opencart.com). What's more? If you have used joomla, the admin interface is just like joomla's, and the learning curve is quite low.

@yawa-ti-de its been a longtime!! i guess you still the queen(i remember u been female, did i guess ryte?) of webdesign here on nairaland....lolz! is dhtml still here
Anyways i have been building websites for awhile now and lately with Joomla(2years now)nut have not started learning how to customize the extensions yet.

Please i would be building a shop[ping cart soon for a Nigerian Bookshop and honestly its my first commerce site. what do you advise? i see you use opencart. its provided by my host as part of fantastico but how do i integrate it with a payment gateway in Nigeria
Your reply would be appreciated,
Thanks.

^^^ The only payment module I have implemented for the Nigerian market is the Bank Transfer. As for other payment methods, I believe DHTML had mentioned on a thread here that he developed a payment module for opencart that accepts Naira. You might want to check him out.

Good luck!

ok thanksbut what youmean by bank transfer?
Also,how do u use ur opencart? which of the payment gatewat do u integrate it with?.

Bank transfer means that customer can buy a product but at check out, your status is set to "confirmed (or something like that)" and can only be changed on the back end when the site admin changes your status (which only happens after you deposit money into the account specified on the front end, on the check out page).

99% of the time though, I install the PayPal Pro or PayPal Standard payment gateway module

You can also you Prestashop cart system.

Ok thanks yawa.
which is the best actually? My team member says he uses open cart and its the best. But what about Zen cart? andpresto cart?

does anyone have an idea of any multi store ecommerce cart.....

remmyz: does anyone have an idea of any multi store ecommerce cart.....

you can use Magento.

From my own experience, I can say opencart is the best - it has a very low learning curve for the very reason you are using it, the client. Once you upload an item or 2, in many cases, I didn't even have to give them a tutorial. It was that straightforward.

On another tangent: It's the same reason I prefer Joomla! to WP.

Dive: u can also develop ur own shopping cart if u like, i developed a similar project in my first year which i used php and mysql it was really good.

please i need that zen cart setup but got it in zip file &not installable, ols help me

weyrey.......lol
ok thanks as well, because i was about asking yawa-ti-de of the payment integration with opencart. so u say cashenvoy is cool, i will try it then,.

Now you are raising the issue of cashenvoy. Is it much better than voguepay?

yorme: Now you are raising the issue of cashenvoy. Is it much better than voguepay?

there was no where I compared any payment module.... i only said i have used cashenvoy and it's cool. didn't know where you coming from.... guess you just want to pick up an argument. ....got better things to do sir

^^^ Sorry, you guessed wrong. I am actually about to begin an e-commerce project (a bookstore, actually), but my client does not want an opensource. The payment gateway i am planning to use is vouguepay, of which other webmasters are of the view that voguepay is best for online transactions.

Cashenvoy, i am just hearing of. That is why i asked if it's a better alternative or if it is equally good for online transactions, especially for my about-to-start project.

For d e-commerce & shoppng cart sites- want xtensions dat cud fit-in 2 wat ds sites has- www.dsw.com, www.mottaionline.com and a2wshopping.com. Demo & documentatns strongly needed pls

Open cart is great, you can integrate Voguepay or Simple Pay for transaction processing.
