Hi all,

For anyone that is still using the now unsupported Interspire Shopping Cart and is using SagePay, we have just successfully moved across to Worldpay with little fuss.

The gateway does need a bit of customisation (only to get you re-directed back to your website), however, nowhere near as much as the coding that is required to modify for SagePay.

SagePay's attitude to this upgrade has been to upgrade your shopping cart (which, lets all be honest, we all know we need to do at some point) but if its working, then carry on for as long as poss. Then they hit you with the '3 months cancellation charge' accompanied with a bit of attitude from staff members.

Worldpay is also cheaper (which is always a bonus)!

If I can help anyone with the changeover, then please let me know and I will do my best to help.
 
We have done this too for a few clients, and have also noticed that SagePay seems to have gone a little down hill over the past year or so, their service seems to not send notifications sometimes and orders not created in this instance.

After getting in touch with their tech support team, and getting the log files (which are only stored for 24 hours), they rub their hands of the issue, and are no help what so ever.

WorldPay on the other hand are a good choice, never had any issues with them, and you are correct, they are cheaper and offer a lot more than SagePay

SagePay is extremely popular with our clients and we have a v3 integration. Getting an old integration working with v3.x is not a difficult task. If anyone needs help PM me. So long as the source code is there I can fix this for you.

No point moving to another provider over this.

@Al B - Yep you are correct in saying the V3 integration is fairly straight forward, in most cases its just a task of updating the version number in the API URL string, but sometimes their service can be a little hit and miss on high turnover high traffic websites (from what we have seen).

There's a bit more to it than that but not a lot. I believe xor support has been dropped for AES only and a few other minor things. This is only a good thing. I've not come across any reason to suggest their service has gone down hill.

None of our customers have made any complaints that I know of. I'm sure all customers of all companies have a bad experience from time to time. :)

It may not be a 'difficult task' for you as the Owner/Founder of CubeCart. I do not dispute it would be an easy integration for you.

But I was talking about Interspire and was offering assistance for anyone that has the same issue we had.

You say there is no point moving to another provider over this, does that mean you are offering to sort the issue for Interspire users for free?

For us, it has been a simple change to Worldpay with no additional cost.

I wouldn't be able to do it for free. If moving to a different PCP works for you .. Great!!

I just thought I'd let you know I'd help you out if you wanted it.

Good luck!
