I am new to worldpay - better still, never used it to buy or sell products/services, but one of my customers would like to add a worldpay system to their website to allow people to buy their car products.
If the products info is coming from a database, all with differents prices, how can/will the worldpay payement system be handled? what account should he take? how much will it cost him? and any other information or experience that you may find useful.
Thank you

But the worst thing about Worldpay (OK - that is harsh, there are many things worse) is that the confirmation page is on their server, which means you cannot track a cookie through to sale easily, screwing up conversion data.
Also - the worldpay account we were unfortunate enough to be stuck with takes 60 days to get the money into our account.
Where's the customer service in that?
The WorldPay developer manual is available:
support.worldpay.com
You can track cookies through to the sale, use callback to send payment or payment failure data back to a script on your site.
Good thing about WorldPay?
1) You don't need a secure server.
2) Integration is easy (very easy)
3) Integration is complex but powerful (if you want)
4) Pages are customisable, colours, graphics, even text can be changed
One final question how does the product on the pages links to the worldpay system, in other words, how easy is it to link the prices from the dtb to the world pay system? do you have to have all your products listed in some kind of catalog hosted on worldpay? how is the connection made between the dtb on the site and the worldpay system
Thanks again

If you want to do anything after payment is processed, use the callback facility to call a script on your site and you should be able to find all the order information from the order reference number.
