Amazon Payments in OpenCart - missing order details in back-office - e-commerce

I have just set up Amazon Payments as a payment method at my store, but have an important issue with it. I can successfully go through the payment process, i.e. I've done a couple of test orders and received order confirmation e-mails accordingly, but when I go into the back-office (Dashboard), I do not see any Payment and Shipping Details :
For what it's worth, I've only done test orders in Sandbox mode.
Is that an issue with Amazon Payments and what would be its solution, or is this the 'proper' way that Amazon Payments works, i.e. it has not been designed to return order information details back to OpenCart?

Shopify problem : Payment gateway isn't setup to test orders

Payment gateway isn't setup to test orders. This store can't accept real orders or real payments.
I add a custom payment to Shopify and when I place order using method the error appears
enter image description here
You can't test real payment methods on development stores.
This is because development stores have limitations on them to make sure that they are used only for development.
You'll have to transfer the ownership to your client. You can find more information here.

How to use Big Commerce Order API and make customer pay?

I would like to make an API call to Big Commerce backend to complete a purchase on a customer's behalf. Based on the API reference:
https://developer.bigcommerce.com/api/stores/v2/orders#create-an-order
By default, I believe that one can only create an order that not yet paid by the customer. Please correct me if I am wrong.
So, my question is - How do you make a payment on behalf of a customer for the order? It is safe to assume that we have a tokenized credit card of our known customer in a payment gateway like Stripe.
My guess of how it could be done is when an order is created, I can set up a webhook to call the payment gateway to make a charge on the customer's credit card. Is this correct? Are there anything that I should watch out for?
Currently, you cannot use the BigCommerce API to process a payment or full transaction. We only allow payments through the control panel where you can enter credit card details or on the storefront made by the customer. If you'd like to make use of tokenization or recurring payments, it is better to use Rebillia or Recharge (apps).
As you stated, you would need to make a call to Stripe's API to charge the card on file with the customer's token. This should be fine. It won't make any calls back to BigCommerce, so I'd be mindful of error handling (such as if the card has expired) and how you'd retry or mark the order in BigCommerce. Depending on how it was configured, you would want to check order details to ensure you were only processing payments from API created orders.
I'm not sure of what PCI implications might be for the storage of the Stripe tokens. That would be another point for consideration.

Shopify API - Payments

I have been reviewing the API documentation for Shopify and am trying to figure out if the cost of an item selected from the 'Store' can be passed in a Get command back to a different website so a different website can charge for the Item along with other charges from a website ...and then once the payment goes through on the website, send a POST to shopify that the sale was complete and proceed with fulfilling the order?
Our software is newspaper software so we provide newspapers with subscriber web portals were customers can sign up and pay for a newspaper subscription.
We would like to offer the ability to add Single Sales items to what a customer purchases and we want to be able to do it in one payment transaction
I have reviewed the various Shopify API documentation but it is not clear if the API supports getting cost info and posting a successful charge back to Shopify to complete the fulfillment step. We are looking to be able to GET the cost for a selected single sale item passed to us from the Shopify API so that we can add it to the Amount we pass to the Payment Gateway we integrate with and when the payment goes through, send Shopify a success on the payment.
The ultimate goal is to have a customer make one payment that can include single sales items as well as a newspaper subscription or day pass.
You should do a POST and create an Order using the Shopify API once (at your side) are sure the payment has gone through.

PayPal MassPay API

I just bought a script with the Masspay API needed to make an authorized payment at a specific time the "deal" ends.
With that said I am unclear why mass pay would need to be enabled for this feature.
If someone could please explain what Masspay is? And I have been reading that masspay is no longer availabe and I would have to contact paypal directly? Is this true for the sandbox accounts also?
If anyone has any information on this subject I am more than thankful.
Thanks.
If I understand your correctly,
Mass Payment is used for sending money.
If you are the merchant with record (you ship items and charge customers), then PayPal Express Checkout is what you want. You can DoAuthorization to hold the fund before you ship the item, and then DoCapture to collect payment after you shipped.
In you are part of the service provider, say you and another merchant both provide the service and own the payment from customer, then Adaptive Payment is what you need. You need call Pay after you shipped.
In simple terms Masspay allows you to make multiple payments to multiple people in a single shot using xls or csv files.
No, paypal is not sun-setting Masspay. This feature is still available and will be supported by Paypal.

Onsite Recurring Payments using Paypal Website Payments Pro API

I want to accept recurring payments on my site using paypal without having the user ever leave my site. Based on the paypal documentation it appears you have to send the user offsite to paypal (express checkout) first and then have them come back to your site.
Is their a different way of using the api so the user stays on site the entire time?
To Process payments not on PayPal's website, you need to use Website Payments Pro.
To use PayPal's recurring payment system, without programming your own:
Use Website Payments Pro Recurring Payments (direct payment recurring payments / DPRP)
Program your own recurring payment functionality:
Save cc info to a database and make DoDirectPayment API calls based on your criteria
Process an initial payment when someone signs up for your recurring service, save the transaction ID, and then call DoReferenceTransaction in the future (based on your criteria). Always use the newest transaction ID as they only last a year. Also, you need to call PayPal to apply for this feature ($0).
