LiveCode 5 iOS app with ecommerce/payment gateway?

Post by edwardcox » Wed Oct 12, 2011 11:13 am

Hello All,

First time poster here and very excited about LiveCode 5. I'm an iOS Developer looking to develop an App which is basically a simple store front, something I believe that LiveCode will excel at. However I'm looking for advice or recommendations on how to best handle ecommerce and a payment gateway for the purchase. The goods will be shipped from a store and I'd expect to handle many transactions per month. I guess, if I'm thinking straight here, I could consider the new in App Purchase option.

Anyone willing to share their thoughts or comments? Much appreciated.

Best Regards,

Ed, in app purchase is the ONLY option. Apple will take a 30% cut. So it goes :)

Perhaps a web app and one of the many third party ecommerce options would be a better fit for your needs.

LiveCode is Open Source, and therefore, FREE for most uses - you can buy a Commercial license for it, if you need to release your software through the Mac App Store, or if you are not allowed to develop under the GPL.

Hi Ed

Firstly... howdy from Tas... why not sign up on the LiveCode Downunder G+ community https://plus.google.com/u/0/communities ... 3950607276

I think most of the answers here are wrong and apple won't interfere with a physical goods store. I know PayPal has an sdk and I was thinking of doing an external one day for it...

Cheers
