So I've added the required hooks to functions.php but I'm not seeing anything pop up in the form editor. Is there further coding required to take advantage of this field in the form editor, or is it all done outside of the editor? </p> <pre><code>add_action(&quot;gform_enable_credit_card_field&quot;, &quot;enable_creditcard&quot;); function enable_creditcard($is_enabled){ return true; } add_filter(&quot;gform_creditcard_types&quot;, &quot;remove_maestro&quot;); function remove_maestro($cards){ unset($cards[5]); //removing Maestro from the list return $cards; }</code></pre> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/possible-to-capture-credit-cards-locally#post-44458 Mon, 19 Dec 2011 23:25:22 +0000 Chris Hajer 44458@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>@bozzmedia, here is the latest information from Carl Hancock about what is currently built in to Gravity Forms for credit cards: <a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/credit-card-validating#post-44438" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/credit-card-validating#post-44438</a></p> <p>You can currently encrypt and store the credit card information with hooks that are built in to Gravity Forms. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/possible-to-capture-credit-cards-locally#post-44447 Mon, 19 Dec 2011 21:03:02 +0000 bozzmedia 44447@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I meant to ask specifically about storing credit card numbers locally AND securely. i.e. sending half the number over email, half stored on server with an encryption key, etc. </p> <p>If anyone comes up with a solution I would be very interested, thanks! </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/possible-to-capture-credit-cards-locally#post-44410 Mon, 19 Dec 2011 17:19:07 +0000 Chris Hajer 44410@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>As explained <a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/possible-to-capture-credit-cards-locally#post-18093" rel="nofollow">here</a> this is already possible. I have not heard of anyone developing this though.</p> <p>Also, the credit card data will not be stored locally in the future. It is always handed off to the card processor. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/possible-to-capture-credit-cards-locally#post-44295 Sat, 17 Dec 2011 00:45:11 +0000 bozzmedia 44295@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>We also have someone interested in this capability. Any success finding a developer for this? Will the Credit Card field coming in a future release help secure credit card information locally?

I'd love to be able to do this on my site. I currently take deposits online... and I get a phone call once a month from someone who says, I can't make a deposit, I don't have a paypal account! I'd love to get the information on my site etc..</p> <p>I also helped the local fire department with registration for a 5K -- and they had similar questions sent to them. Maybe a couple of us can get together to help underwrite the enhancement?</p> <p>-Scott </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/possible-to-capture-credit-cards-locally#post-18158 Thu, 10 Feb 2011 01:00:08 +0000 Carl Hancock 18158@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Recurring transactions are possible with Gravity Forms and the PayPal Add-On. The PayPal Add-On supports recurring transactions, which are really handled by PayPal. Gravity Forms sets up the recurring transaction with PayPal based on the form submission. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/possible-to-capture-credit-cards-locally#post-18127 Wed, 09 Feb 2011 21:06:23 +0000 ThomasUmstattd 18127@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Thank you!</p> <p>Would it be possible to do recurring transactions through the gravity forms? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/possible-to-capture-credit-cards-locally#post-18093 Wed, 09 Feb 2011 16:46:57 +0000 Carl Hancock 18093@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Yes, it's possible although i'm not 100% sure on the guidelines for storing credit card data. You would want to use SSL on your WordPress site which can be done using plugins that handle making sure the site is accessed via SSL and of course installing SSL on your web server.</p> <p>In Gravity Forms v1.5 there are hooks in place that would allow you to 1) encrypt form data and 2) decrypt form data when it is displayed. You would have to write custom code to do it, but the hooks are in place to make it possible. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/possible-to-capture-credit-cards-locally#post-18088 Wed, 09 Feb 2011 15:28:52 +0000 ThomasUmstattd 18088@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Is it possible to do everything on the site without sending users to PayPal. I know we will need an SSL certificate and that this is possible with various paypal compatible shopping carts but can we do this with Gravity Forms? </p>
