Payement system that User Manager should support
What kind of Payment systems do you prefer using? What kind of system should we support first as the most widely used one? Maybe there are others that we don’t mention here?
PayPal/Authorize are good, but how about creating an open system to allow integration with local banks?

i almost removed your post as spam …
I’ve used both authorize.net and paypal, and I would have to say authorize.net is easier to use for both the ISP and the customer. The easier it is to get through a hotspot, the more people will be inclined to use it.
#1 Authorize.net (very popular, easy, open, professional, widely supported)
#2 Paypal (very common, convenient, changes often, less professional, more mom and pop style)
#3 Worldpay (commonly supported in many applications and billing systems)
Many companies already use authorize.net because they have very competitive rates, an easy to integrate API, and it’s compatible with many 3rd party ecommerce and billing programs, so the likelyhood of it being able to work with your existing billing system is a huge plus, many might find they only need one processor to handle an unlimited number of Hotspots including your main billing package.
Here’s an example of how simple it is to setup Authorize.net (once you allow the API)
Merchant ID xxxxxxx
Merchant Password xxxxxxx
Merchant Transaction Key xxxxxxx
Payment Gateway https://secure.authorize.net/xxxx
You can also apply to become resellers (i.e. Mikrotik could be a reseller and help ISP’s setup their own Merchant Account and Mikrotik would make a small amount of revenue from doing that while allowing the ISP to get great merchant service rates and a simple setup)
Will any of these be added into 2.9 or do we have to wait until 3.0?
we have made the authorize.net payment system, please look at this topic

Now we will start to work on PayPal.
Hi Uldis
Are we going to see PayPal integrated into User Manager at the MUM next week?
not yet 
It will be in the middle/end of the February. We started to work on the new GUI for Usermanager that’s why all is going so slow.
Mid-end Feb for Paypal 
Guess that will give me some more time to get our hotspots ready to roll out.
come on! it’s less than two weeks until february 
Yeah, but we are like kids waiting for Christmas to come. 
well it is feb 5th any updates??? already bought a level 6 lieses and installing it in the server to implement this
Its down to a week and we’ll have Paypal integration.
Canyou also provide som interface that can use custom payment service. Since UserManager is isolated form external databases, it would be good if it can use info from external source about payments or payment status for users.
That would allow developing (or using) third partu applcation for money acounting and let MT interact with it.
according to firebat it should be here … well, yesterday i saw a test of it, which means it’s working. you will have to wait for the next routeros release probably.
Thanks Normis. That’s good news. I hope the new release comes out soon…
Can you add recharging accounts with prepaid vouchers?
Thanks.
Normis:
Which Router OS version will Paypal integration be in?
