The Akopia Shopping Cart allows you to set up an online store selling goods and services through your secure server.

To see a live example Click Here.

For further information on using the cart see this page Quick Start

A full set of help files for the shopping cart is available at http://help.akopia.com/4.6.0/ These help files are also linked from within the Akopia Cart administration section that you can log into through your control panel.

Where is the cart?

You activate the shopping cart by going into the control panel, clicking on tools and then the shopping cart icon.

The cart files are located at yourdomain.com/cart/ BUT they must be accessed through these addresses:

Customer entry:
http://yourdomain.com/~username/cgi-bin/cart.cgi/index.html

(This is the page you need to link to from your main web site).

Admin entry:
http://yourdomain.com/~username/cgi-bin/cart.cgi/admin/index.html

How to get the checkout pages to run under the secure server.

Log into the admin center.
Click on "Preferences"
Click on "Directories and Paths"
6th on the list will be SECURE_SERVER.
Type in: https://red.srv2.com/
Click on the OK button.

Your Checkout pages will now be run under the secure server.

Real time payment gateways
