Default Re: How can I stop "X-payments Started" orders from being created?

It also works around paypal callback...

There are many moving parts to a great checkout experience, and x-payments by itself is not the solution or the cause. X-Cart core is to blame for many design flaws, and the xpc must work as expected.

I froze my store earlier this year at version 4.5.4 and x-payments 1.0.6 and I don't know when or if I will jump branches.

PS -- Altered Cart has a module for $150 that integrates
Authorize.net direct post ->
Stripe ->
First Data ->
PayPal Advanced transparent redirect (no popups!) ->
SagePay inline iframe ->
TrustCommerce ->

http://www.alteredcart.com/product.php?productid=23&cat=0&page=1

and can be used instead of x-payments -- but this only integrates with CheckoutOne.

Do you like/trust x-cart checkout? In vers 4.5.4 the answer is no. So I invested in Altered Cart solutions (with x-payments 1.0.6), and it has performed exactly as represented. Just saying.
