Was this information Helpful?

Hi all

I'm just now setting up UC for the first time and it's a bit confusing to say the least. I read that Google Checkout now does recurring payments, which I'd like to do for memberships to my site. Something like $5 the first month, $3 every month after.

Can someone help out a newbie on how to go about doing this in UC? Pretty thoroughly confused at the moment, lol.

Any help greatly appreciated

Re: Google Checkout with recurring payments?

There is a google checkout module already, but it doesn't look like it supports the recurring payments yet. I just had a look at google checkout's recurring api and it looks reasonably straight forward and wouldn't be too difficult to implement.

If you want to attempt to code this yourself what you probably want to look at is the uc_authorizenet payment module and how it implements recurring payments and then take the current uc_google module and modify it to include the same features.

In 6.x-2.x google checkout module is part of ubercart, but for 5.x-1.x its separate here: http://drupal.org/project/uc_google_checkout

Re: Google Checkout with recurring payments?

Thanks for the reply. I'm not much of a php coder, so there's no hope of me coding it myself Smiling, but I'd love to see this get added to UC.

Re: Re: Google Checkout with recurring payments?

I have a client that desperately needs this feature and is willing to pay. Are there any programmers out there that could help?

Re: Google Checkout with recurring payments?

Has anyone made any progress on this? If it's done in the google checkout module will it utilize the hooks for the core recurring in 2.x the way it does for the credit card module? I know there's a separate project on drupal.org for another recurring module but I'm not sure where it fits in unless you're using authorize.net. Any info is appreciated.
