If you're just getting started coding, I'd advise against taking on such a project. If you're not 100% sure of what you're doing, creating payment systems puts all of your customers at risk and opens you up to all kinds of liability.
If you're dead set on doing this, get a team together. Make sure you know all there is to know about web security and credit card law...and keep a good lawyer on speed dial for when hackers steal the identities of your customers.
I don't mean to scare you...on second thought, yes I do.
Seriously, if you and your team aren't experts, please please please don't attempt this. Just use a third-party payment system.

568 PointsYeah true, you could use this site: jimdo. com (without space I dont want to be reported as spam :-) here you can create your site and use their payment system, It's cool because you can use your own code or use their "Drag and drop elements" I personally use it! <h1> Hello Hope I helped </h1>
