Integrating Clickbank via INS

DAP has built-in support for ClickBank’s Instant Notification Services (INS) (starting v3.9)

This is very similar to Paypal’s Instant Payment Notification (IPN).

The ClickBank INS notification will be processed instantly in real time, and your members will receive their welcome email with their membership login info instantly after purchase.

For high-level ClickBank user-flow, see this post.

Integrating with ClickBank is the same whether it’s a one-time product, a subscription product with recurring payments, or a PitchPlus (one-click upsells) product.

CB INS Setup

1. Login to your ClickBank account

2. Go to the “Account Settings” tab at the top

3. Click on “My Site” from the sub-menu at the top.

4. Under Advanced Tools, update the Instant Notification Service URL (accept the terms of service etc), and make sure the URL points to:

http://YourSite.com/dap/dap-clickbank.php

Replace YourSite.com above with your actual domain name.

5.  Screenshot below shows Version 1.0, but starting DAP v4.2, we have added support for CB INS 2.1.

So if you’re using DAP v4.2 or later, then select INS Version 2.0 and set the CB INS URL TO :

http://YourSite.com/dap/dap-clickbank-2.1.php

But if you’re using DAP v4.1 or earlier, then select Version 1.0

and set INS URL TO:

http://YourSite.com/dap/dap-clickbank.php

6. Whatever value you put in the Secret Key field in ClickBank (see image above), put the same value (must be ALL UPPERCASE) in to your DAP Admin Dashboard on your web site, at:

Setup > Config > Payment Processing > Secret Authorization Key used when interfacing with external systems

7. The Product Title in CB must match the Product Name in DAP.

8. The Thank You Page url in CB product settings page, should be set to point a static thank-you page you create in your WordPress blog – something like http://YourSite.com/thank-you/ .

And the page should state something to the effect of…

Thank you for your purchase. The download information for the product you just purchased has been sent to the email id you just use during the purchase.

Please check that email id in a few minutes, and you will see an email from us with your login information.

That’s it!

Testing

Make a test purchase.

If the integration was setup correctly, the user will be registered in DAP.  You will find the user account in the DAP Users > Manage screen and you will find the completed transaction / order details on the DAP Orders page.

If the test order is listed in DAP Orders page, then CB is correctly integrated with DAP.  Check the payment status in DAP Orders page. If it says Success, but no welcome/thank-you email got sent, then make sure you set the thank-you email for that product in DAP products page.

Troubleshooting

If no order is listed in DAP orders page for the test purchase, then CB is not integrated with DAP.

To troubleshoot, do the following:

  1. Set DAP Setup > Config > Log Level to 5.
  2. Empty log content under System -> Logs.
  3. Run another test purchase.
  4. Send us the log snippet from System -> Logs.

DAP-Supported Shopping Carts

Last updated: 09/02/2014

Direct Integration with Shopping Carts and Payment Processors

UPDATE: We are now authorized resellers for Authorize.net. If you’re in the US or Canada, click here to apply. If you’re in the UK, then click here.

DAP directly integrates with the following Payment Processors without the need for any additional third-party shopping carts:

  • Stripe (new!) – via DAP Shopping Cart
  • Authorize.net (US/Canada / UK) – via DAP Shopping Cart
  • 2Checkout.com
  • CCBill.com
  • ClickBank
  • ClickBank PitchPlus (1-Click Upsells)
  • Digiresults
  • DealGuardian
  • Google Checkout
  • e-Junkie (FYI: e-J does not allow recurring payments)
  • JVZoo
  • Paypal Standard – direct & via DAP Shopping Cart

  • Paypal Website Payments Pro (legacy) – via DAP Shopping Cart
  • Plimus

DAP also integrates with the following Shopping Carts

Indirect Integration through 3rd Party Shopping Carts

Since DAP integrates with Shopping carts like WooCommerc, 1SiteAutomation.com (our white label of 1Shoppingcart), e-Junkie, Premium Web Cart and Infusionsoft, that means that it also integrates (albeit indirectly) with all of the Payment processors and gateways that these carts support. So, for example, since DAP works with 1SiteAutomation, it essentially integrates with all payment providers supported by 1SiteAutomation, like:

Bank of America
BluePay
Concord EFSNet
Cybercash
DPI Merchant Services
e-Commerce Exchange
Echo Inc.
ECX QuickCommerce 3.0
Epoch Systems
eProcessing Network
EPS SecureNet
EWAY (Australia)

1-Click Upsells

If you use the DAP Shopping Cart Plugin, you can do 1-Click Upsells/Downsells like the pros, without the need for any external shopping cart or upsell service provider.

The free DAP shopping cart that comes with your DAP purchase allows you to do unlimited 1-Click Upsells using Stripe, Authorize.net and Paypal Website Payments Pro (legacy).

However, for doing 2-Click Upsells/Downsells with Paypal Standard, you need our Paypal Upsell-Tree plugin that is sold separately. Or you can also get this plugin for free with our Platinum subscription.

Of course, if you need advanced shopping cart features – like ability to calculate shipping, tax, and coupons – then you should consider using 1SiteAutomation.com.

1ShoppingCart & GoDaddy

If you want automated recurring order processing using 1ShoppingCart (1SC) or 1SiteAutomation.com, then DAP needs to be able to process the recurring email notifications sent by 1ShoppingCart, which it does on the back-end when the DAP Cron Job runs every 10 minutes.

However, if you’re using Godaddy as your web host, then because GoDaddy disables a mandatory PHP library (“imap”) on all their servers for some reason, DAP is unable to process the recurring order email notifications from 1ShoppingCart.

This is not an issue if you are using GoDaddy as just your domain name registrar, and using some other service like Liquid Web or Hostgator as your web host.

But if you’re using 1SC & GoDaddy hosting, you will have to end up doing manual cancellations if any member cancels their subscription, or if their credit card fails and their recurring payments don’t get processed.

Please note that 1ShoppingCart order processing works great with all other (non-GoDaddy) hosts.

Cancellation or Refund Requests

The Question

How does a customer, once they have signed up and become a member, cancel their membership (or get for a refund)?

Cancellations

If it’s Paypal, they could go into their Paypal account, and cancel their subscription themselves.

If it’s ClickBank, they can log in to their CB account, and cancel their subscription themselves.

If it’s any other payment processor or cart – like 1SiteAutomation.com, Authorize.net, Paypal Payments Pro, etc – then they have to ask you (the membership site owner) to cancel.

Refunds

Except with CB, in all other cases, they have to ask you for a refund

Action Steps For DAP Admin

Whether it’s a cancellation or a refund, log in to your Payment Processor (1shoppingcart, Authorize.net, etc), and make sure you perform the cancellation or refund there. DAP does not store any of the payment information of your subscriber. So both cancellations and refunds have to be performed at your Payment Processor.

Now that you’ve cancelled the actual charging of the customer at the payment processor level, you have to also take care of the customer within DAP – only for refunds.

Cancellation Of Ongoing Subscription in DAP

If this is the cancellation of an ongoing subscription, then no action required within the DAP Dashboard as far as the User is concerned. DAP already does “Pay As You Go” processing – which means, their account will automatically expire at the end of the current recurring period (eg., end of current month). The “Access End Date” of the user’s access to the Product will automatically expire if no new payments come in. And then they’ll automatically lose all access to the content that is part of that Product.

However, if this is the cancellation of a “trial”, where if the user comes back and signs up again for another trial a few weeks or months later, then you want the user to start all the way AT THE BEGINNING. So if it’s the cancellation of a “trial” then you must manually remove the user’s access to the product. So for that, follow the process below.

Refunds (and Cancellation of Trial) in DAP

If it’s a refund of the entire purchase, then…

  • Search for that user by email on the “Orders” page, which will bring up their Order (a.k.a “Transaction”)
  • Click on the “Refund” button on that screen. That will create a new negative transaction in the Orders table. Then it also roll-backs any affiliate commissions earned on that sale and make a negative entry in the database for that affiliate. Then it rolls back user access by the number of days entered in one of the “Recurring Cycles” entered on that Product’s page (depending on how far along they were in as a member).
  • Now search for that user by email on the “Users > Manage” screen. Make sure that they no longer have access to the Product.

If it’s a refund of just one recurring payment from among a series of subscription payments, or the cancellation of a trial, then you can go into the “Users > Manage” screen, search for the user, and do a “Rollback Access for Selected User(s) to the Product by 1 Recurring Cycle“.

Paypal Website Payments Pro Integration

IMPORTANT: PLEASE NOTE

The latest version of Paypal Payments Pro (called PAYFLOW) is not compatible with DAP and Recurring Billing Cycles, You will have to open a Paypal account with the older version of their Payments Pro Merchant service that is compatible with DAP. Please make sure to use the older version of PPP which has to be specially requested through their support team. In a future DAP release, we will make it compatible with the new version of PPP.

Please read this for more on Payflow and Paypal Payments PRO :

http://www.digitalaccesspass.com/forums/threads/1044-Recurring-transaction-failed-in-paypal?highlight=payflow

This post includes information about generating buy buttons for Paypal Website Payments Pro. It also has information about setting up 1-Click Upsells.

Even if you don’t wish to do upsells, you should follow the setup instructions in this page, for integrating your site with Paypal Website Payments Pro .

What you need before you can use this plugin

  1. You need a Paypal Website Payments Pro merchant account with Recurring Billing enabled.
  2. You must have SSL (secure server) enabled on your web site. Ask your web host to enable SSL for your site.
  3. You must have a working version of DAP 4.2+.
  4. Login to the DigitalAccessPass.com member’s area and download the file, DAPShoppingCart.zip .
  5. Unzip it to  your desktop. It will unzip the files to a new folder on your desktop, called “DAPShoppingCart”.
  6. Upload all the files inside, directly to your “dap” folder on your web site. DO NOT upload the folder itself.
  7. After the files are uploaded, check to make sure that you find the files checkout.php and checkout-submit.php (just to name 2) directly under the dap folder. If you don’t, then you haven’t uploaded the files to the right directory.

Installation & Setup

  1. Enabling Instant Payment Notification (IPN) within your Paypal account.

    a) Log in to your Paypal account and click on the “Profile” link.
    b) Go to Instant Payment Notification

    c) If IPN is already enabled, and you already have a URL in that field, then skip ahead to Step 2.
    Else, if IPN is not already enabled, then click on “Choose IPN Settings”

    d) On the next screen, in the Notification URL field, enter…
    http://YourSite.com/dap/dap-paypal.php

    Don’t forget to replace “YourSite.com” with your actual web site’s domain name.
    e) Make sure “Receive IPN Messages” is selected.

    f) Click on “Save”.

  2. Enable “Auto-Return” and “Payment Data Transfer”

    Log in to your Paypal account.

    Go to Profile.

    Click on Website Payment Preferences

    Turn Auto Return to On (see image below)

    Set Return URL to http://YourSite.com/dap/dap-thankyou.php

    Scroll down further to the Payment Data Transfer (optional) section

    Set Payment Data Transfer to On

    Scroll all the way to the bottom of the page, and then Save the changes.

    You will now see a green check mark image, with a long string of characters on line 2. That is your Paypal Identity Token. Copy that string.

    Go back to DAP Dashboard > Setup > Config > Payment Processing > Paypal Identity Token field, and enter this string there, and save it.

  3. Log in to your Paypal account and retrieve the following 3 pieces of information:
    Paypal API Username
    Paypal API Password
    Paypal API Signature
  4. Now log in to your DAP Dashboard and go to “Setup > Config“. Click on the “Paypal” link in the sub-menu at the top. The current page will then skip to the “Payment Processing: Paypal” section about half-way down the page.
    The current page will then skip to the “Payment Processing: Paypal” section about half-way down the page.
  5. Fill out items (1) through (10). 
  6. Into fields 7, 8 and 9, enter the Paypal API Username, Paypal API Password, and Paypal API Signature that you noted down earlier.
  7. This step applies to you only if you are already using 1ShoppingCart with DAP (if not, skip to next step):
    Be sure to disable the “Email Order” cron job from your web hosting control panel (“Cron Jobs” screen), because you don’t want your orders to be double-processed.
  8. We’re going to assume that you’ve already setup the pricing and recurring options on the Products/Levels > Manage page, on the Pricing & Recurring tab.
  9. Now click on Payment Processing > Generate Buy Button on the DAP Admin Main Menu.
  10. Switch to Auth.net & Paypal Pro tab.
  11. Select the product name for which you wish to generate the buy button. Sections 1 and 2 are self-explanatory.

  12. If you want to put the shopping cart page right within a WordPress page, then do this…
    a) Set the Payment Success Page to point to the page where you want users to be redirected upon purchase. It can be your login page, or a static thank-you page that informs the buyer to check their email id
    b) Create a WP Page with the title Checkout containing the tag %%DAPCART%% tag and publish it. The permalink of this page would now become https://yoursite.com/checkout. Remember to add the “s” to “http” to make it “https://”. This page is not something you should access directly, but only through clicking a buy-button.
    c) In the above screenshot, where it asks for “Checkout Page in WordPress”, enter the URL of your new checkout page from Step (b) above. Replace yoursite.com with the name of your site.
    NOTE: The checkout page URL should start with https (SSL-enabled) and not http.
  13. When done with sections 1 & 2, at the bottom of section 2, click on the Generate DAP Shopping Cart Button Code
    This generates the buy button HTML code for your product, which you can then directly paste into your sales page. When you click on this link, you will get a pop-up that shows the actual HTML code for your button. The price, trial price, and recurring options are all taken from your Product settings. So make sure you have saved your Product changes before you click on this link.
  14. Here’s what the HTML code looks like:
    <form name="DAPCartPaymentForm" method="post" action="https://yoursite.com/dap/checkout.php">
    <input type="hidden" name="payment_succ_page" value="http://yoursite.com/members/"/>
    <input type="hidden" name="item_name" value="Bronze Members" />
    <input type="hidden" name="is_submitted" value="Y" />
    <input type="hidden" name="btntype" value="buynow" />
    <input type="hidden" name="is_last_upsell" value="N" />
    <input type="hidden" name="payment_gateway" value="paypal" />
    <div align="center"><input type="image" src="https://yoursite.com/dap/images/addtoorder1click.jpg" width="200" height="100" border="0" name="submit" /></div>
    </form>
  15. Put the button code on your sales page. Now click on the button, it will take you to the checkout page (if you customized the checkout page as per step 12 above, then you’ll be taken to https://yoursite.com/checkout).
  16. Enter the CC details and other info and hit submit.
  17. The purchase will complete and DAP will redirect you to whatever you set in the Payment Success Page in the button.

That’s it for Paypal Pro button generation.

1-Click Upsells

  1. If you’re doing upsells, the only thing you need to do is, look for the “payment_succ_page” field in the above form.
  2. Point it to the URL of your Upsell offer. This can be either a static HTML page, or a WordPress Page.
  3. On the upsell page, if you want to upsell say, Product B, then make sure you set up Product B ahead of time in DAP, and set up the price and recurring options. Then generate the buy button code for Product B and have it already published on that page.
  4. You can repeat this process for unlimited upsells, downsells and one-time offers. No limits.

 

Creating Custom Header & Footer for Checkout Page

You can either use the standalone cart page, and then customize the header and footer.php file.

Or you can put the cart right within a WordPress page on your site, so the cart will then take on your theme’s look and feel, and look like it were completely a part of your wordpress site.

Header & Footer for Stand-alone Cart page

To create custom header and footer, create two files by name cartheader.php & cartfooter.php

Upload them to the dap/inc/ folder.

Whatever HTML snippet you put in the above two files will show up as header & footer on the check out page.

Shopping Cart Overview

Summary

While it looks like a LOT of steps, that is only because we have to explain the steps in detail so they are clear. In reality, it is very simple to set up, and starting from scratch, if you have DAP & SSL already installed, it shouldn’t take you more than 1/2 hour to set up your 1-Click Upsells/Downsells/OTO’s. And if you’re not using Upsells/Downsells, then it can be done even faster.

If you have any further questions, feel free to open a support ticket, and we will assist you in getting this going.
