Supported Features

The eWAY Tokens module allows you to process credit cards via eWAY without ever storing the full card details locally in your WHMCS installs database. Card details are still entered on your site for a seamless checkout process, and thus you do still need to be PCI Compliant, but your risks are greatly reduced by not storing the cards locally.

Installation

To install the eWAY Tokens module, begin by downloading it here: http://www.whmcs.com/members/dl.php?type=d&id=134 and then upload it to the /modules/gateways/ folder of your WHMCS installation

Configuration

Once installed, begin by activating the module from the list of available gateways in 'Setup > Payment Gateways and then configure as follows:

1. Enter a Display Name of your choice for end users to see (eg. Credit Card)
2. Enter your eWAY Customer ID, Username & Password
3. Ensure that "Disable Credit Card Storage" is unticked in Setup > General Settings > Security - when using a token module it is not needed

Note: eWAY operates a separate system for dev/sandbox testing and so you will need to register @ http://eway.com.au/developers/sandbox.html in order to use the demo mode.

Multi-Currency

This module does not send the currency when processing payments, so can currently only be used to process payments in the eWay account balance. IE. if your eWAY account is in AUD, you can only process AUD transactions through WHMCS.

However orders may still be accepted in other currencies so long as the Setup > Payments > Payment Gateways > Convert to for Processing setting is set to your eWay account currency (to continue the above example, AUD).
