Active Merchant

This library is supposed to aid in creating e-commerce software in Ruby. In the future we want to support all “good” payment gateways.

This library is the foundation of commerce for www.shopify.com.

Please visit the ActiveMerchant homepage for more resources, tutorials and other information about this project.

Supported Direct Payment Gateways

The ActiveMerchant Wiki contains a table of features supported by each gateway.

Sample Usage

require 'rubygems'
require 'active_merchant'

# Use the TrustCommerce test servers
ActiveMerchant::Billing::Base.mode = :test

# ActiveMerchant accepts all amounts as Integer values in cents
# $10.00
amount = 1000

# The card verification value is also known as CVV2, CVC2, or CID
credit_card = ActiveMerchant::Billing::CreditCard.new(
                :first_name         => 'Bob',
                :last_name          => 'Bobsen',
                :number             => '4242424242424242',
                :month              => '8',

                :verification_value => '123'
              )

# Validating the card automatically detects the card type
if credit_card.valid?

  # Create a gateway object for the TrustCommerce service
  gateway = ActiveMerchant::Billing::TrustCommerceGateway.new(
              :login => 'TestMerchant',
              :password => 'password'
            )

  # Authorize for the amount
  response = gateway.purchase(amount, credit_card)

  if response.success?
    puts "Successfully charged $#{sprintf("%.2f", amount / 100)} to the credit card #{credit_card.display_number}"
  else
    raise StandardError, response.message 
  end
end
