1 00:00:00,790 --> 00:00:05,970 In this video we'll look at the options for payment systems that we can use with newcomers. 2 00:00:05,980 --> 00:00:10,600 There are lots of integrated solutions for collecting payments with newcomers and we'll look at some 3 00:00:10,600 --> 00:00:11,780 of the most common. 4 00:00:11,830 --> 00:00:17,540 We'll also learn how to manage inventory and product tracking directly in the Wordpress dashboard. 5 00:00:17,560 --> 00:00:22,150 By the end of this video you'll be able to set up a client with a simple payment and product tracking 6 00:00:22,150 --> 00:00:23,410 system. 7 00:00:23,410 --> 00:00:28,350 Let's start by logging into the Wordpress dashboard where we've been working with our wew commerce site. 8 00:00:28,540 --> 00:00:34,000 And let's check out the two menu items that newcomer's gives us when it's installed. 9 00:00:34,060 --> 00:00:40,000 The one we've been working with is the custom post type called products and we've looked at all those 10 00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:44,890 items but just above that is a commerce menu item with a couple other things. 11 00:00:44,890 --> 00:00:52,330 This is where you would manage your tracking and looking at orders coupons reports etc. and under the 12 00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:59,220 Settings button that will open up a number of different settings that we can set. 13 00:00:59,230 --> 00:01:07,420 Now if we go over to check out that will give us our options for what kinds of payments that we might 14 00:01:07,420 --> 00:01:12,510 be able to enable with or we'll come or set up that we have right now. 15 00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:20,110 If you scroll all the way to the bottom of that checkouts tab page you can see that the payment gateway 16 00:01:20,110 --> 00:01:23,310 section is down here at the bottom. 17 00:01:23,310 --> 00:01:30,630 Now a direct bank transfer is something that you can enable a check payment where they would send you 18 00:01:30,630 --> 00:01:36,810 a check in the mail or at a physical location and in that way you'd have to manually mark the item as 19 00:01:36,810 --> 00:01:41,880 paid before you ship it out or allow the customer to download it. 20 00:01:41,940 --> 00:01:43,240 Cash on delivery. 21 00:01:43,320 --> 00:01:49,860 That's obvious if you have a physical location or if you just want to put in payments manually and then 22 00:01:50,100 --> 00:01:57,060 Paypal Pay-Pal is a standard gateway that is really well used and popular. 23 00:01:57,060 --> 00:02:04,080 And actually it enables people to use credit cards to make payments on your Web site with out any additional 24 00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:07,770 fees they charge a little bit per transaction. 25 00:02:07,770 --> 00:02:14,940 There's a 30 cent transaction fee per transaction at this point as well as a 2.9 percent percentage 26 00:02:14,940 --> 00:02:20,840 that they take as a fee from the seller or the person receiving the payment. 27 00:02:21,150 --> 00:02:27,960 And this is very comparable and even less expensive than having a built in merchant account and a gateway 28 00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:28,610 system. 29 00:02:28,710 --> 00:02:33,560 That is how current card payments were traditionally taken in the past. 30 00:02:33,690 --> 00:02:40,650 Pay-Pal I think is the easiest way to get started with allowing you or your clients to take online payments 31 00:02:40,890 --> 00:02:45,390 using either a PayPal account or a credit card. 32 00:02:45,420 --> 00:02:51,930 Lots of people feel more comfortable making online payments through a merchant like PayPal because you 33 00:02:51,930 --> 00:02:55,950 know that the seller does not actually know your credit card number. 34 00:02:55,950 --> 00:03:03,990 Paypal keeps that secure and then processes the payment for you and allows the commerce system to track 35 00:03:03,990 --> 00:03:11,340 that payment and then allow for the product to be delivered the last couple of things about PayPal itself 36 00:03:11,610 --> 00:03:18,750 are that it allows you to collect credit cards on an online site without charging an upfront fee at 37 00:03:18,750 --> 00:03:19,570 all. 38 00:03:19,770 --> 00:03:26,880 Pay Powles regular pay pal payment system is free to use except for the fees that they take out of payments 39 00:03:26,970 --> 00:03:28,700 after you receive the payments. 40 00:03:28,770 --> 00:03:35,760 And at the same time the Pay-Pal standard extension for commerce comes with newcomer's plug in itself 41 00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:42,970 and you don't have to buy an extra extension or any kind of additional functionality so within the commerce 42 00:03:43,060 --> 00:03:46,890 settings page how do you enable people in the first place. 43 00:03:46,990 --> 00:03:54,910 If you click the Pay-Pal item here under the checkout tab you can see that there's an enable and disable 44 00:03:54,950 --> 00:04:01,930 checkbox so you can just click the checkbox to enable Pay-Pal standard and then you can choose the options 45 00:04:01,930 --> 00:04:02,550 here. 46 00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:08,560 You can edit the description and that's the great thing about Pay-Pal is you can pay with your credit 47 00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:11,110 card even if you don't have a paypal account. 48 00:04:11,140 --> 00:04:13,100 And I think that's the standard message. 49 00:04:13,270 --> 00:04:20,470 You put an e-mail address that Paypal is associated with you and then you can go down and choose any 50 00:04:20,470 --> 00:04:23,350 of the other options that you need. 51 00:04:23,350 --> 00:04:29,800 Generally with just the e-mail address you can set up PayPal standard to check take credit card payments 52 00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:35,650 on your behalf and then you set it up with Paypal to have them deposit those amounts directly into a 53 00:04:35,650 --> 00:04:36,900 bank account of yours. 54 00:04:37,730 --> 00:04:43,220 Now there's a number of ways that your web site can engage with PayPal in terms of different extensions 55 00:04:43,430 --> 00:04:50,090 that will comer's has to make your web site able to take payments through paypal Paypal standard is 56 00:04:50,090 --> 00:04:51,910 the one that comes with newcomer's. 57 00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:57,350 And I found this document the Paypal extension comparison by just searching for the word Pay-Pal in 58 00:04:57,350 --> 00:04:58,520 the documentation. 59 00:04:58,730 --> 00:05:01,760 And let's just take a look at some of the different items. 60 00:05:01,790 --> 00:05:07,130 A lot of these extensions are third party extensions that have been made to connect with commerce and 61 00:05:07,130 --> 00:05:11,420 give some different functionality for how it engages with your web site. 62 00:05:11,420 --> 00:05:17,870 The main difference between Pay-Pal standard and many of these others is that with Pay-Pal standard 63 00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:26,360 if you don't keep the customer on your website when they make their final transaction and many customers 64 00:05:26,390 --> 00:05:32,870 and online shoppers are very very familiar with this process we're using Pay-Pal standard when the person 65 00:05:32,870 --> 00:05:39,470 hits the make this payment button it sends them over to the Paypal website itself where they can log 66 00:05:39,470 --> 00:05:41,150 in or use a credit card. 67 00:05:41,210 --> 00:05:46,470 And then when they complete the transaction Paypal sends them back to your Web site. 68 00:05:46,820 --> 00:05:53,210 One of the advantages of using something like pay pal pro is that during the entire transaction the 69 00:05:53,210 --> 00:05:58,580 customer stays on the Web site and it's not that big a deal. 70 00:05:58,580 --> 00:06:03,740 Many people are familiar with paypal and know that if they go and pay with pay pal they get redirected 71 00:06:03,740 --> 00:06:04,640 back to the site. 72 00:06:04,850 --> 00:06:10,400 And that page that you send your customers to can also have your logo and your business name embedded 73 00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:11,520 at the top of the site. 74 00:06:11,660 --> 00:06:13,190 In the first place. 75 00:06:13,280 --> 00:06:20,750 Another thing about using Pay Pal pro is that an SSL certificate or a secure sockets layer certificate 76 00:06:21,050 --> 00:06:27,610 is required to have people fill out credit card information on the Web site directly by using Paypal 77 00:06:27,650 --> 00:06:28,510 standard. 78 00:06:28,550 --> 00:06:36,590 You can use a standard HTP site instead of the HTP s that comes when you use a secure sockets layer 79 00:06:36,620 --> 00:06:37,800 certificate. 80 00:06:38,180 --> 00:06:43,510 We'll talk about SSL certificates and the benefits of using those in the next chapter. 81 00:06:44,980 --> 00:06:51,400 Now let's take a quick look inside the Pay-Pal dot com Web site itself so that you can or you can coach 82 00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:57,910 your clients to sign up for the proper account to use Pay-Pal standard with a newcomer site. 83 00:06:57,910 --> 00:07:03,640 So when you click the sign up button on the right hand side click a business account and you can use 84 00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:09,690 a standard free paypal account without having to pay advance fees. 85 00:07:09,700 --> 00:07:16,180 So if you just click business account and then hit next you can see there's two choices you're presented 86 00:07:16,180 --> 00:07:21,830 with the paypal payments standard which is what we want what what we want our clients to sign up for. 87 00:07:21,940 --> 00:07:28,810 And then the paper our payments Pro which does cost $30 a month but it allows your customers to stay 88 00:07:28,810 --> 00:07:29,750 on your Web site. 89 00:07:29,950 --> 00:07:35,060 However it also requires that you have HGT P.S. which will learn about in the next chapter. 90 00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:40,840 But if you click select standard then it'll ask you for some different information you'll verify an 91 00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:46,960 e-mail address that Paypal will confirm with you by sending you an opt in confirmation link and then 92 00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:53,020 you can go on and continue to set up your bank account information and other information paypal needs 93 00:07:53,020 --> 00:07:54,190 like your address. 94 00:07:54,310 --> 00:08:01,440 And then you'll be able to take credit card payments online with the paypal payments standard set up. 95 00:08:01,580 --> 00:08:06,980 All you need to know is the e-mail address associated with your client's paypal account and you can 96 00:08:06,980 --> 00:08:14,340 get them set up and working back in the checkout options settings page under will commerce. 97 00:08:14,340 --> 00:08:16,940 Let's take a look at check payments options. 98 00:08:17,250 --> 00:08:22,680 So if you click Check payments and you have that enabled basically there's just a description title 99 00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:29,070 and some instructions where you would instruct the customer about where to send the check how to make 100 00:08:29,070 --> 00:08:31,720 it out anything you want in this field. 101 00:08:31,740 --> 00:08:36,230 Now of course if you are unable check payments you'll have to receive them in the mail. 102 00:08:36,300 --> 00:08:41,550 Open them and make that deposit and make sure that the funds have cleared your account before you enable 103 00:08:41,550 --> 00:08:46,570 that product to be either shipped or delivered digitally to the customer. 104 00:08:46,920 --> 00:08:50,910 And that's true of the direct bank transfer process as well. 105 00:08:50,910 --> 00:08:56,340 You can put your bank account and all of this information to be able to make a direct payment into a 106 00:08:56,340 --> 00:08:58,580 bank account through the wood commerce site. 107 00:08:58,740 --> 00:09:04,990 But again this is not an automatic payment gateway like PayPal or another credit card processor. 108 00:09:05,130 --> 00:09:10,950 You still have to make sure that your bank has received the funds before you open up the product to 109 00:09:10,950 --> 00:09:13,550 shipping or download to your customer. 110 00:09:14,970 --> 00:09:18,790 So how do you choose which payment option is right for you or for your customer. 111 00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:24,790 There are a lot of options and each has a different fee structure and a different type of setup. 112 00:09:24,910 --> 00:09:31,080 Pay-Pal and Strype are very similar to each other and are excellent payment processors to be able to 113 00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:39,420 take credit cards and have a streamlined and simple process for you and for your customers on the commerce 114 00:09:39,510 --> 00:09:40,890 documentation site. 115 00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:44,320 I just found this article by searching for payment options. 116 00:09:44,460 --> 00:09:49,890 And this is something that you could do some research on and see which types of payment gateways or 117 00:09:49,890 --> 00:09:54,770 payment systems you would want to learn how to set up for you and for your customers. 118 00:09:56,210 --> 00:10:03,050 The next thing to go over in this video is just the simple ability for Wu commers the in to track your 119 00:10:03,140 --> 00:10:11,750 inventory and your customers or clients products inside of their e-commerce store under that Wu comer's 120 00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:19,460 menu item you can look at reports or orders Let's click orders and check out what we have to look at 121 00:10:19,460 --> 00:10:20,300 here. 122 00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:26,190 Basically we will see receive notification in this section when we receive a new order. 123 00:10:26,210 --> 00:10:32,090 You can click learn more about orders by using this button and it'll go to the documentation at newcomer's 124 00:10:32,180 --> 00:10:35,150 dot com under reports. 125 00:10:35,150 --> 00:10:40,110 You can see that you can see order reports customer reports. 126 00:10:40,250 --> 00:10:43,430 And over here on the right side are stock reports. 127 00:10:43,430 --> 00:10:51,650 If you have stock and inventory tracking enabled this will track your stock and tell you when it's low 128 00:10:51,650 --> 00:10:57,550 or when it's out-of-stock or what products are the most stocked in your stocking system. 129 00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:05,840 If you look inside of a product itself let's open products and we'll just choose a product right here. 130 00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:14,210 On the product editing page if you scroll down a little bit you can see that one of the items under 131 00:11:14,210 --> 00:11:19,520 product data is inventory and then right here under managed stock. 132 00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:24,260 If you check the check box it says and label stock management at product level. 133 00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:31,670 That means that you can put in the number of pieces that you have in stock and then you can either allow 134 00:11:31,670 --> 00:11:33,840 or disallow back orders. 135 00:11:33,860 --> 00:11:39,170 You can even choose to allow it but notify the customer that there's been a back order. 136 00:11:39,170 --> 00:11:45,770 And then you can show in-stock or out-of-stock manually and then you can choose whether you want this 137 00:11:45,770 --> 00:11:48,740 item to be sold individually. 138 00:11:48,740 --> 00:11:53,550 Meaning you can only buy one of this item to be bought in a single order. 139 00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:59,420 In this lesson you learned how to set up credit card processing through paypal and commerce and also 140 00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:06,230 how to enable to other types of payment processing when using the A C S or bank account clearing system 141 00:12:06,380 --> 00:12:07,830 and accepting checks. 142 00:12:07,850 --> 00:12:13,100 The store owner must manually finalize the sale after payment has cleared as opposed to an automated 143 00:12:13,100 --> 00:12:15,140 payment gateway like PayPal. 144 00:12:15,140 --> 00:12:20,780 It will be up to you and your clients to decide which methods are best in the next video will set up 145 00:12:20,780 --> 00:12:27,400 shipping options as well as systems for delivering digital products or those that can be downloaded. 146 00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:32,750 One of the great things about newcomer's is its ability to manage the downloading permissions for digital 147 00:12:32,750 --> 00:12:33,610 products. 148 00:12:33,620 --> 00:12:34,450 Let's check it out.
