Where can I find Cart66 Cloud documentation?

You will find detailed instructions in our Cart66 Cloud documentation.

What is PageSlurp?

PageSlurp is the technology that we invented to provide a secure and PCI compliant way for us to run your WordPress them on our secure servers so that all your secure pages look just like the rest of your website. Basically, we invented an easy, one-click way to let you skin your secure pages with your WordPress theme.

What is PCI compliance?

PCI Compliance is a set of requirements that your business needs to meet in order to accept credit card payments. If you are using Cart66 Cloud for your e-commerce, then your website is PCI compliant. If you are not using Cart66 Cloud then you need to handle all of the PCI requirements on your own. Becoming PCI compliant on your own is very expensive and challenging. For more information about PCI compliance, see What you need to know about PCI compliance.

I'm thoroughly pleased and impressed with Cart66 support. They truly take ownership of their product and offer amazing, helpful support. It is so great to have a legitimate alternative to woocommerce. To me, Cart66 provides the solution that website developers and owners should expect for the future. The service doesn't require a million plugins to work as well as multiple pay-for-use solutions for various features. I'd give them 5 stars if there were more design/layout options for designers.

Have been working with Cart66 for over a year and have used it to develop an extensive membership section on a client's site. Support from Andrew has always been top notch, he responds quickly with whatever information is needed. Recently the organization re-branded including moving to a new domain name, the process went very smoothly. It's so great to know that help is just an email away when I need advice or technical assistance. Cart66 support is truly outstanding!!

The Cart66 support team was very helpful in resolving an issue on our site. There was a plugin conflict that was sprouting some error messages on our site and within less than 24 hours of contacting Cart66 support, they had release an updated version of the cart66-cloud plugin that completely resolved the issue. I work with lots of developers and rarely see that kind of attention to support issues. Way to go Cart66 Support! Thanks Lee & Andrew!
Julie 11, 2017
I emailed the support people several times and always got timely responses with a solution to the issue. They were thorough in their responses making sure everything was spelled out clearly, which was very nice. This is exactly how support should work. Very pleased with the cart too, great product!
Maart 20, 2017
Had few encounters with this support group. They do their very best to get any and all issues or concerns resolved.They are courteous and have a very good response time. Better over other plugin-admins. They actually care!

Andrew went above and beyond to assist me with my back office issue. I was unfamiliar with the platform but with their willingness to help and patience they ensured I had exactly what I needed in a great turn around time. Thank you!
