How to actually collect the money
jtdavis247 opened this issue · comments
I must be missing something but I cant seem to find how I actually collect the money from the people that sign up and support my campaign. I have pushed my app to heroku and everything seems to be working fine. It allows the customer to click on the reserve now button and it takes them to amazon, it even redirects them to the thank you page after they have hit confirm on amazon. The problem is I want to start collecting money and I can't seem to find where I can do that at on my amazon account. What am I missing here? and help would be great! Thank you!
You'll need to create an Amazon Seller Central account. Afterwards, get your access key and secret key from the "Integration" tab on your AWS account.

Once you have your access key and secret key, head over to config/settings.yml. Change amazon_access_key and amazon_secret_key appropriately.
There's an additional step. I intentionally left out code to charge multi-use tokens, to raise the barrier to entry slightly higher in the hopes of preventing unsophisticated scammers. Have a look at the documentation for Amazon FPS to see how to charge and refund multi-use tokens. You'll want to implement IPN.

Yeah I understnad why you set it up that way for sure. I have done everything that @tailorvj has mentioned now I am following the amazon_flext_pay documentation to try to collect money. I am fairly new to calling API's so thank you for your patients. So do I put this code ...
begin
response = AmazonFlexPay.pay('12.99', 'USD', 'senderToken123')
flash[:notice] = "Thanks! Your payment is processing."
rescue AmazonFlexPay::API::Error => e
flash[:error] = "Sorry, something went wrong."
e.errors.each do |error|
# notify yourself about error.code and error.message
end
end
redirect_to product_path
in the Postfill method like so...
def postfill
unless params[:callerReference].blank?
@order = Order.postfill!(params)
end
# "A" means the user cancelled the preorder before clicking "Confirm" on Amazon Payments.
if params['status'] != 'A' && @order.present?
response = AmazonFlexPay.pay('12.99', 'USD', 'senderToken123')
redirect_to :action => :share, :uuid => @order.uuid
else
redirect_to root_url
end
end
Lastly would I put the price variable in the first parameter? and what exactly goes in the 3rd parameter? Thank you again for your patients and I hope to hear from you soon! Thank you!
