E Commerce Solutions for Yola Websites.
Does any of you guys in Yola or using Yola knows how to integrate E Commerce in to Yola Websites? I have created my company website through Yola and I am finding an e Commerce solution where I could integrate online transaction forms that accepts visa, master cards, paypal etc. Would really appreciate, if some one help could me with this. I am a beginner and wants to improve (thank to Yola!). My company website is http://www.beachtravelmaldives.com.
I’m confused, in need of help

Inappropriate?Hi beachtravels
Right now the only ecommerce option we have available is our PayPal online store widget.
In order to receive credit card payments on your website you need to meet certain legal requirements and have the right authorization. This can be expensive and difficult to set up. You need an SSL certificate, which you cannot use with a Yola site.
Many people make use of third party services such as PayPal because they take care of the security requirements for you. Note that if you use them, your customers can pay with their credit cards even if they do not have a PayPal account.
I hope this gives you some ideas. I am glad you are looking for ways to develop your site. I hope we will be able to offer a more comprehensive ecommerce solution in future.4 Comments

Thanks for the support. I thought that in Paypal, customers should have to have an account in order to pay online. I have a paypal a/c but opened under the country, Maldives. -
"In order to receive credit card payments on your website you need to meet certain legal requirements and have the right authorization. This can be expensive and difficult to set up. You need an SSL certificate, which you cannot use with a Yola site." Could you please help me understand this? Why I cannot use SSL certificate with my Yola site? So it means I cannot find another Ecommerce solution but only can use Paypal? I have a Paypal a/c but opened under the country Maldives, where I cannot get many features that others who get so many, because of the region problem. Please help me out with this. I am in need of finding a way to get an ECommerce solution for my Yola site, that accepts visa, mastercards etc for the products we sell.

The reason that you cannot use an SSL certificate on a Yola website is that your site must be hosted on a unique IP address. Yola sites are hosted on the same IP address. You could download your site and host it elsewhere - with a hosting service that could offer you a unique IP address. The other option is a third party service (PayPal, Google Checkout). You might also want to take a look at http://www.mals-e.com/ You can create a shopping cart through them and embed it in your site using their embed code. Hopefully in future better options will become available.
