Re: Newest x-payments and php 5.2
 

Yeah I have 2 stores and I may just go with the xpayments hosting solution or may just forget it altogether. I'm being charged $1000 to have xcart "look" like my current website and now this additonal $50 per month per store for hosting. And then I need to upgrade my other store which I'm guessing its $1000 for a redesign also.

So it's all adding up to the point that I'm wondering is it all worth it.

1. If you have version 4.1.x, that means you've been using xcart for at least 4 or 5 years. That means you should have a "free" x-payments NFR license - but you need to "install" it somewhere in the next 36 hours! Like right now!!!! It's use it or lose it. Read this:

2. A good x-cart specialist host, such as Hands-on or EWD can solve most of your issues without spending silly $$$$

Store upgrade costs for designers should have nothing to do with fundamental hosting issues.

If you "own" an x-payments NFR license, RUN, don't walk, and find a host with php 5.3 right this minute. Install it. Tell x-cart where it is installed and you save yourself $1189. But you MUST do that right now. Today. That is assuming you've been a long-time x-cart customer.

Ihave 2 versions of xcart licenses since 2008. And I just checked and it shows 1 x-payments license. Shouldn't I have two there?

or is one good enough for both sites since it can have multiple stores?

Re: Newest x-payments and php 5.2
 

One license per account.
Many threads about this...
Bottom line:
If you EVER want to use the x-payments license after tomorrow, you MUST install it on a php 5.3 server and tell x-cart where it is -- you don't have to USE it, just install and assign the license, else it's gone forever after tomorrow.
DO this now.

ok thanks for the tips. Didn't realize this march expiration date and i guess I have really good timing, or bad timing....lol

Re: Newest x-payments and php 5.2
 

To clarify, one xpayments license per xcart purchased? or they give you one xpayments license for one account, even if you bought 20 xcart licenses?

Re: Newest x-payments and php 5.2
 

per account

Re: Newest x-payments and php 5.2
 

Yeah, think I decided to work on something else. This just isn't as easy as it needs to be, it's way over complicated and I have too many other projects. It should come with xpayments, every single copy bundled as one. Not $1200 for a license.

I am really sorry that we can't provide a free X-Payments license for everyone. If we could we would do that. But our ongoing fees on development of this software and supporting its PA-DSS status make us charge our customers. Unfortunately, the PCI council and PA-QSAs do not work for free. Neither our developers. Even powerful communists could make people work for free and USSR collapsed due to economical reasons.

Said that I want to note that we launched special cheap X-Payments Hosted plan named "for Small Business" - see http://www.x-cart.com/xpayments-pricing.html - it comes with PCI compliant hosting space pre-configured to be used with X-Payments along with X-Payments itself (pre-installed).

Also, your free X-Payments license allows connecting up to 10 stores.
