Tokenized gateway local storage issue

Recommended Posts

There are two cases in which if you are using a tokenized gateway with WHMCS that you could still be storing credit card information locally instead of at your gateway.

 

-A new user orders a product and pays with a non credit card gateway such as PayPal.

-They decide they would like to add a credit card to their profile, they do this from the Client Area

-At this point the credit card information isn't tokenized, it is stored locally until the first time the card is used.

 

-A new user orders a free product and they input credit card details.

-The credit card details are stored locally until the first time the credit card is used.

 

The underlying issue is WHMCS will only call the storeremote function if the user has at least one invoice set to a credit card gateway.

 

I have reported this issue to WHMCS but they instructed me to request this as a new feature.

You can vote for this feature here:

If you are using one of the credit card gateway modules that we (ServerPing) provide and using the included templates, this is not an issue since credit card information is sent directly to the gateway via javascript and never sent to your WHMCS server.
