Seems that everyone is finally getting onboard with Paypal. Heck, I have been using Paypal almost exclusively since my sports card buying and selling days on ebay. I signed up from an auction listing that had a banner stating that they would give me $5 free dollars to sign up. Now, Astraware is on board. In case you didn't know it, HP.com takes paypal as well. I love ordering my ink using paypal.
Astraware now accepts PayPal
Astraware is pleased to announce a new way to buy games and applications from their online store due to customers' requests for alternative payment methods. Many customers either didn't have the particular types of card Astraware accepts or they didn't have a credit card at all, and so requested that Astraware accept PayPal as an alternative to cards. After a bit of nifty integration work from David Oakley, Astraware's CTO, PayPal is now live on the Astraware website. "We get almost as many requests for different ways of paying and changes to our site as we do for developing different games - the number of PayPal requests has been steadily increasing over the last year until it was our most frequent request," said Howard Tomlinson, CEO of Astraware. "PayPal's Express Checkout system was easy to integrate into our store's checkout and also easy for our customers to use," said David Oakley, CTO of Astraware. "For people who already use PayPal it significantly reduces the amount of information they need to provide to buy our games." Customers who choose to pay with PayPal instead of the usual checkout system will be redirected to the PayPal site to put in their login details and confirm the transaction. Once completed the site will instantly redirect the customer back to the Astraware website to complete the transaction and the customer will receive their registration code on screen there and then so they can start playing the game immediately. Their code will also be emailed to them as usual so they can keep a record of their transaction. Customers who are familiar with using PayPal should hopefully find this will be just like their experiences at other sites! The initial roll-out of this enhancement is for purchases of Astraware developed and published products, so the option to use PayPal won't be available at the checkout if customers have added one of the titles (from the Astraware Lifestyle catalog, for instance) that Astraware resells for other companies. All being well, Astraware hopes to extend this service across all products on its site in the near future.
