The vQmod file will modify the following OpenCart files:

  • catalog/controller/checkout/checkout.php: Necessary for Mastercard Payment Gateway Services to work on your checkout page.
  • admin/controller/sale/order.php: This will make the order history comment text items as links to the transactions.
  • admin/model/sale/customer.php: After you delete a customer, this will also delete the associated payment tokens.

After installation/update the following new database tables will be introduced:

  • mastercard_pgs_transaction: This holds all transactions created by the extension.
  • mastercard_pgs_token: This holds the relationships between your registered customers and their credit card tokens.
