How about just eliminating the PIN codes? I haven't run into a gateway yet that requires two factor authentication so why does X-Payments? Don't tell me its because PCI-DSS requires two factor authentication. That's only for remote network level access (VPN) to the cardholder data environment not application level access. The same goes for the crazy encryption junk that is needed to communicate between X-Cart and X-Payments. What was that for????? Again, no payment gateway requires this stuff - https is sufficient along with a user name and password. You guys went so nutsy overboard on X-Payments its incredibly customer unfriendly when it doesn't need to be.

As for ideas.x-cart.com - when you reopen one page checkout or give me my votes back I might actually visit there again. One page checkout was closed with credit card payments still being two pages. I didn't get my votes back so I gave up on it being a way to actually influence development. Don't tell me it can't be done - other carts do it and third parties are starting to do it for X-Cart. You guys need to start thinking customer friendly instead of tech-nerd excuses and over-engineering.
