Amazon is major platform. Maybe this should be part of the core system
Yes it should but according to CS-Cart Support:
Our engineers have examined the documentation for the payment method and its usage statistics. They decided not to integrate the Amazon Login and Pay payment method in CS-Cart in the nearest future.
I use DPS PX Access by www.paymentexpress.com Their product is getting updated in a couple of months to PxPay2 and DPS PX Access will no longer work.
I asked CS-Cart when there would be an update but they are dropping support for all www.paymentexpress.com products because of low demand. They suggested getting a quote from http://www.simtechdev.com to develop the payment processor.
I will get a quote but if I pay for the development it makes sense for others to be able to use it as well. So Fotis if you made it into an addon I would be the first buyer and you could sell it again to others.
Okay, I just found this thread after beating my head against the wall for a couple hours wondering why the Amazon Checkout button wasn't appearing despite configuring the option.
So I went through this thread, and if I understand what I read correctly, does it mean that essentially these instructions CS-Cart points you to for Amazon Checkout setup do not work?
If true, WHY IN THE HELL would this page not tell poor new users like me that this doesn't work.
In my Amazon Payments account, I have a Merchant ID, MWS login and MWS public and secret access key. (I had assumed these are the same as what the CS-Cart setting page is labeling as "AWS" login and access keys. But of course it doesn't work.
However that PHP file is actually located in /apps/payments/amazon !!!
So I have an Amazon Payments (production view) all setup but is this something different than what is needed to setup the Amazon Checkout payment option in CS-Cart or is that the correct info and I just got in before the discontinued it or is the Amazon Checkout setup on the Amazon side just missing (replaced by "Login With Amazon") and I'm just lost because the damn CS-Cart KB article is now effectively giving incomplete and/or outdated info regarding Amazon Checkout?
Amazon payments, the method cs-cart used to support (very poorly though) has been discontinued. Cs-cart decided not to support the new login and pay with Amazon, so I'm afraid that if you want this you need a 3rd party add-on. I had one made by dvsgr - it's finished but we can only install and test in some weeks. When it's all working, my guess is he'll offer it for sale for a reasonable price.

Thank you for the confirmation! CS-Cart needs to update their KB article to state this so users like myself don't end up wasting time going down a dead end!!!
