It won't be a simple upgrade. However, since we will use the same css-based skin templates, I believe it won't require complete redesign either.

So I'm sat here thinking "Do we even need the X-Payments Addon"?


As far as I understand the standard, if credit card data ever touches your server (and it does with SagePay Direct: php scripts receive it from a customer's browser and send it to a SagePay's server), your server is in the PCI scope.

Although the SAQ-C form omits some requirements, I guess it still requires you to use a PA-DSS verified payment application (the one that transmits card data from a customer's browser to a gateway's server) on a PCI-DSS compliant server (there is a special section related to Shared Hosting in the standard). X-Payments will be a PA-DSS verified payment application that processes SagePay Direct payments in a PCI DSS compliant manner.
