Magento: Create New Payment Method – Cash On Delivery

· · 126 Comments

About: How To Create a Magento Custom Module and A “Cash On Delivery” Payment Method
Who’s Interested: Informative to the semi-technically savvy
What: Custom Magento Payment Method

So I’ve seen more and more people raising awareness about desire to create a new payment method that allows orders to be paid via “cash on delivery” or “on pickup” by customer. Is this helpful to companies who sell to local clients? Absolutely. But if you were to click here for info on the diversity of payments, you’d know that this is just the tip of the iceberg.

So in offering a solution, I’ll go ahead and outline what files need to be created and why with hopes to help educate the intigued learner in how to create a Magento Custom Module as well. The benefit in knowing how to do this is modifying existing Magento functionality in a way that it will not be overwritten upon a successful Magento upgrade.

Thus, I’ll jump in. The following 5 files will be created (relative to one’s Magento root folder):

  • config.xml
  • system.xml
  • PaymentMethod.php
  • mysql4-install-0.1.0.php
  • NewModule.xml

Here are their contents (with comments) and relative paths:

Again, this serves as a basic configuration for a new payment method that allows Cash On Delivery and is written as a Magento Custom Module, with plenty of options for the live version. Modifying these files may be necessary, though this should be a good outline to get you started. Any help needed, post here and we’ll get some dialogue going to find solutions for your needs.

    Branko,

    We’ve been excited about Magento for some time now. We’ve also had a chance to dialogue with you some and gain a better appreciation for your involvement in the Magento community.

    Let us both keep up making progress with Magento on behalf of the community!

    Thanks for the encouragement.

    Thanks Tomislav,

    Great to hear from you, and I do hope this tutorial is beneficial in your endeavor to write a custom payment module.

    I was wondering, would you suggest any other topics about Magento that you’d like to hear or know more about?

    Let’s get a list rolling and begin writing on the most valuable topics the Magento community can benefit from.

    Thanks for your input,

    That coincidence is fun to hear about 🙂

    In that case since you’re working alongside Branko,I recognize much-needed topics that will benefit the Magento community have already been approached in an ongoing manner here: http://activecodeline.com/

    We’re excited for your community involvement, and are glad for the opportunity to contribute as well.

    Feel free to jot down thoughts on topics you’d like to hear about as they come to mind. Nonetheless, we’ll keep on blogging about the design, development, and marketing of Magento!

    hi timothy,
    As Tomislav has no suggestion I have one, if I may 🙂
    I’ve learned php with osc: I realize then now that I’m programing in a XXth century way. I’ve discovered Magento and love it and see this an oportunity for me for learning he XXIth century way of programing.

    I’m studying now all I can find about OOP and Zend framework: that isn’t easy but surely worth it.
    Here comes my request: where to start in order to discover Magento’s code? Is there some logic I should keep in mind when I need to find some piece of code I want to see/change?
    You know, a tutorial about Magento’s code for beginers.

    Thanks in advance. Cheers.

    Hi there “osdave”… In my modest opinion, Zend Framework is the way to go, especialy if you are interested in Magento. I too am on the path of learning and hopefully mastering Zend.

    There are people who will say Zend is fat as framework, use CodeIgniter, or PHPCake or Symphony or… Whatever the case may be, Zend is recognized as Enterprise ready, it comes with full certification program, it’s documentation is great and so on… in short; you can’t go wrong if you choose to go with Zend.

    Hi @osdave and Branko,

    So great to have you both interacting here. I’m just catching onto the dialogue, and think Branko’s got a great perspective on jumping into Magento by initially learning the Zend framework.

    I recognize a couple ways of going about Magento customization. For theme customizations, one can often l learn by comparing the code with the frontend of the theme (via Magento theme notes AND Firefox Firebug tool). In this manner, learning theme customization techniques can be self-learned automatically by adjusting the visual part of the Magento theme.

    But I think you’re referring to Magento core code customization more specifically. And with our combined experience, we agree that learning the Zend Framework (which has made available some great tutorials and videos) is key.

    As you get familiar more with Object Oriented Programming, I believe you’re going to see GREAT value in utilizing the concepts it has to offer. Here’s a link that might get you started actually: http://devzone.zend.com/node/view/id/627

    As I understand it, Magento is written with the intention of not just utilizing the basic OOP concepts, but enhancing code re-usability and efficiency with the Zend Framework.

    They’re still making changes, as we’re all growing alongside them. Let’s keep the dialogue up, and post all kinds of thoughts/questions here and there so we can help each other out.

    All the best,
    Lee

    hi Lee, thanks for answering.
    The link to the devzone seems very interesting for me right now, as I’m revising the base of PHP. I’ll focus on parts 7 and 11 (OOP and XML) as these are both concept I am less confident with and very important for Magento (and I guess for good PHP programing).
    So, thanks again for your time and I’ll check your future posts, keep up the good work 🙂
    cheers, dave

    Hi,
    Thanks a lot for your work, but unfortunately the payment option doesn’s show up in frontend. It does in Admin->Configuration->Payment methods and I have enabled it. Also, I have refresed cache. Any idea what I did wrong? Thanks in advance!

    Reply

  13. timothyleetaylor says

    Hi @Tonitobleroni,

    Thanks for your inquiry. Can I ask what version of Magento you are using? Also, you can try to manually refresh the cache by removing all contents from the following path: var/cache/

    Try that and mention what version of Magento you are using. Make sure the payment option is enabled, and we’ll see what we can troubleshoot from there.

    Thanks,
    Lee

  14. timothyleetaylor says

    @osdave,

    That sounds like a great plan for getting started. Also, once you do get an idea for the architecture of Magento (and better seeing at a high-level how everything fits together), you can attempt to go through this payment module piece by piece to see why the code is there and how it interacts with the other files inside the module.

    If you have any questions, post them here. Understanding the module may not seem as overwhelming, and it also plugs right into the Magento code with OOP concenpts (like overriding controllers with OOP practices in mind). Thanks, and all the best with your learning – as I’m doing it right with you every day =) It never stops!

    – Lee

    Hello Lee,
    Thanks a lot for your response. I manually removed all content from the cache folder. I am using 1.1.6. I have enabled the payment option in Admin.
    Thanks in advance!

    Hey @Tonitobleroni,

    Please visit this post and read up about some solutions others have found when dealing with this type of issue: http://www.magentocommerce.com/boards/viewthread/832/P45/#t10489

    Unfortunately, without being able to look into the code you have (as various setup options can be prohibiting this from showing up on the frontend), it is hard for me to troubleshoot. Also, some questions I might cover with you are already located within the forum post mentioned.

    Lastly, if you don’t find any solution there, you may try a quick install of another Magento store and see if the module works from the fresh install.

    I haven’t had time to go in and verify that the code be relevant for Magento version 1.1.6 yet, though I haven’t seen anyone else having a problem with this – so it’s not likely there is any upgrade issues involved.

    Thanks,
    Lee

    Hi,

    Could you suggest me how to configure the this module in own magento application. when i putted the all files in my local system this is not overriding the default shipping method of magento.

    Reply

  20. timothyleetaylor says

    Hi @sirvash,

    I’d love to recommend how to configure this module in your own Magento application, though with all the possibilities, it would probably turn into a small project rather than a couple discussions.

    In reference to the issue you mentioned, make sure you haven’t changed the name of the default shipping method of Magento. Also, I’d recommend going back and make double-checking that the files were copied into the correct folders (reference the paths in the download we have available).

    Please contact us via our contact form below if you’d like help on a project, and we’d be glad to assist you.

    Thanks!

    Hi All,

    As I see, there’s been a bit of activity that I haven’t had time to get to. My apologies here. I haven’t needed to update this for Magento’s new 1.2 version, so I haven’t tested it against the upgrades Magento has made. Unfortunately, I haven’t had time to update it – though I assume there’s some adjusting to the “system.xml” file regarding displaying correctly within the Admin->Payment Methods.

    I’ll post again when time opens up. Until then, keep testing and post your successful findings on the blog here!

    Thanks for all community contributions,

    Hey there @Sabarish,

    That error tends to be a result of something going wrong within your config.xml or system.xml file inside the module directory. Be sure to check unnecessary whitespace and invalid characters (which happens sometimes if copying and pasting).

    Hope you find a solution that results from digging around those two files.

    Cheers!

    What I mean is, say I have a list of user accounts maintained through the admin panel. What then if I create a group called “vips” and then only when they are logged in they can see the payment option “Cash on Delivery”.

    We would not want to deliver a heavy valuable package to someone whom we did not trust to give them the COD treatment!

    This is somewhat off topic, but I haven’t been able to get any help at the Magento forums.

    Sounds like you know what you’re doing, maybe you know the deal with this?

    Thanks in advance!

    Here’s my issue:

    – I added a new module using ModuleCreator.

    – Was able to activate it via Configuration -> Advanced.

    – The new module MENU tab shows up in the Admin section, but when I click on the button, it takes me to a blank page.

    – I’m using “default” theme for the backend, and a custom theme for the frontend. However, this new button takes me to a blank page styled using my custom theme.

    So my question is—where can I see this custom module admin page? Is it a php, xml or phtml file?

    I want to add content to it, and if possible, change it to “default” theme like the rest of the admin section.

    Heya guys,
    first I must say I really appreciate your effort in serving Magento community! That goes for Croatian team as well!

    I am also interested in knowing whether this module works in 1.3.x. I am gonna try it anyway and let you know the results.

    However, I am still kinda confused about Magento updates. The thing is I am modifying the system quite a bit plus thinking of using lots of extensions. I mean, I am aware the system needs to stay safe, however, the possibility of having to modify code after every update makes me, well, not happy.
    Anyway, I know this is a different topic, it just bothers me extensively.

  52. freshwebservices says

    Hi jazkat,
    If you use your own modules to modify Mage behaviour/functionality, then you have less to worry about when upgrading. However, if you modify core code, then this is a problem when upgrading – you’ll have to use a diff tool to compare the new code against your modified version and then merge the 2 if you can.
    So if possible, figure out how to create your own module to do modifications – often ‘all’ you have to do is copy the file you want to modify into app/code/local/yourfolder and then publish it as a module, having informed Mage to use your module rather than the default.
    Best wishes,
    Eddie

    Hi Eddie,
    thanks a lot, this makes sense. I was actually going to create my own modules and not change core files, so that means I was on the right path not to complicate my life 🙂

    Hi @Abdul,

    From the link you gave us, it looks like this kind of functionality is more related to a “product configurator” rather than an actual payment gateway. The payment gateway would need to happen once the products are added to the cart and the user is sent to the checkout process.

    All the best in finding the right solution!

    Cheers,
    Lee

    Dear Timothy,

    First of all thanks a lot for the module. I have installed it on Magento 1.3.1 and it work great. We have added an additional fee as COD charges and it works great on front end. However, the problem comes when I have to modify an existing order or create a new order. It simply does not count the additional charges and the total of the order is having only the shipping charges added. Can anyone who has faced the similar issue, guide me how to solve this issue?

    Regards.

    I think your post does a better job explaining how to create a payment module for magento that the wiki page they have on the magento community site. Good job!

    Totally agree with Ron above. The Magento wiki is complete crap by comparison.

    One question I have which is confusing the hell out of me, is about the PaymentMethod.php file.

    How does this file get referenced by the payment method?

    The only reference I can find to it is in the config.xml file which says:

    newmodule/paymentMethod

    there is a folder called

    app\code\local\Mage\NewModule\Model

    and inside of that there is PaymentMethod.php

    is this the same file that is referenced in config.xml ??

    Hi, thanks for this. I’ve implemented it on v 1.2.1.2 and it works great! 🙂 I’ve also added a new “message” field to this module (“Please call xxxxxxx to arrange delivery time”). It shows up in admin but doesn’t show the message when I choose this payment method on checkout. Anyone can help me with this?

    Much appreciated,

    Rianti

    I’m trying to create multiple modules using the same template but I notice the subsequesnt ones are not showing. It’s enabled and I get no errors. Is it a sort number value issue?

    Reply

  76. optical says

    let me rephrase my question. If I need to create multiple new methods, which variable will I need to change? I changed the NewModule variable but I can only get one method to show up in the backend. The other new method shows it’s enabled in Advanced but I dont’ see it on the Payment Methods.

    Although I am writing a custom payment module for Magento (what a learning curve!) which is a bit more complicated stuff, I would appreciate some advice. After creating the module I can setup my custom setting of the created payment method in the Payment Methods Magento admin section, but when I enable the payment method and go to the checkout, the Payment Information doesn’t contain the option for my enabled payment option. I have disabled the cache while debugging, so it can’t be the fault. cheers

    Hello Lee,

    Many thanks for this contibution.
    I have managed to add a new payment method based on your tutorial and I am very happy with it.
    The only problem I have with any new payement modules I write from scratch is that they will cause an error in the admin panel when you attempt to check an order/change the status of an order that was placed using this payement.
    So In the admin section , if I go to sales/orders and try to edit the last order made with the newpayement I get this error:

    Warning: include(/home1/……/app/design/adminhtml/default/default/template/POD1/info.phtml) [function.include]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home1/… …//app/code/core/Mage/Core/Block/Template.php on line 144

    Any idea how I can resolve that little bugger ? Is the module missing some template files in the adminhtml ?

    Thanks

    Charles G

    Hi Guys,

    This works PERFECT!! Just one thing, you have to change the title of “NewModule.xml” to “Mage_NewModule” otherwise it doesn’t work 😉

    My only discrepancy is that the COD option will be available for downloadable and virtual products, which is not logical since there is no address to deliver a virtual product to. Can you specify COD based on product type?
