Hi there! I've been selling small self made games in my little online shop for quite some time now. But since a few weeks I'm selling more games than before (yay!) which leads to a huge problem: For every order/payment I get (via PayPal) I have to generate the customer's activation code per hand. This means that I have to create ~5 codes per day and mail them to the customers. That's way too much work! So now I'm looking for a way to automate this. It would be nice if the customer could pay via credit card and get the activation code immediately (on my website). Therefore I would need a credit card payment system, that directly displays a certain page after the payment (which can't be accessed otherise). On this page I could then implement the activation code gennerator. Since I've ssen that on many websites it can't be so difficult. But so far I couldn't find a good credit card payment system. They all are charging insane amounts of money (and huge monthly fees). And since I don't make that much money with my games I'd rather pay ~10% of every sold copy and nothing else. Is there anyone here who has experience with a sales system like this? Any help would be appreciated!

Not true. You can use Instant Payment Notification from Paypal to instruct your website to autogenerate and email the product key. It'll work fine with your current Paypal integration. clicky

Hey, thanks for the hint. I'll look into that :-)

RegNow looks decent to me, though I didn't use it personally.

I had a similar question, thanks for the help, GameDev!

An alternative to Paypal is Amazon Flexible Payment Service.
