Absolute Beginners - Getting Started
We have put together some information to help beginners get an idea on what Html is, and how easy it is for a first time user to get the concept on how it
all works. We do not promise that you will become an expert quickly, however in regards to setting up your payments through the Patrasys System, you will
get the hang of it within 20 minutes. We have setup an html creator that will allow you to present your orders for payment and send your customers back to
a page you designate on your website.
What is an HTML File?
- HTML stands for Hyper Text Markup Language which basically means a system of linked text.
- An HTML file is a text file containing small markup tags
- The markup tags tell the Web browser how to display the page
- An HTML file must have an htm or html file extension
- An HTML file can be created using a simple text editor
Below we have put together two methods which you can use to send your request to the check out page. The first method is the get method, and the
second the post method. We have tried to explain as much as we can on this page, and believe that you will be able to get this completed successfully in
no time at all. If you need any further support, please email us at support@patrasys.com

GOING LIVE
All new accounts are set on a Test status until fully activated. You can make as many test transactions as you like, however please note that we
delete all test transactions after 2 weeks to keep the transactional data clean. Once the testing is complete, you will then need to go live. In order
to go live, you need to log into your account, and go to the activation page.
The HTML POST method
POST is the preferred method for sending lengthy form data. When a form is submitted POST the user does not see the form data that was sent. For
example, this is the link form uses POST to submit information to the server:
GBP £ Sales <FORM METHOD=POST ACTION="https://patrasys-retail.com/15/patraserve.php">
USD $ Sales <FORM METHOD=POST ACTION="https://patrasys-retail.com/USD/">

Optional Form Data
Below are the optional fields you can send with your payment. The advantage to this is that the client will not have to enter their details twice, if they are
being transferred from a shopping cart. Their details will already have been filled out on the payments form, and all they will have to do is confirm and
pay for their order. It is therefore highly advisable to include these fields along with the mandatory fields if sending the customer to the payment page
from an external application or shopping cart:
