    We received a notice from paypal regarding their shift from VeriSign G2 Root Certificates to SHA-256 certificates. I’m assuming this doesn’t affect us since Camptix sends people to Paypal for the transaction, but just want to be sure that is correct, and Camptix will continue to work as they make this upgrade.

    I don’t think that’d affect CampTix at all, but if you post a copy of the email here I can double check.

    Thanks for your reply! I’ve pasted what we received below. I also looked on the Paypal site and found a pdf about the change there . It seems to me that this is probably just an issue for people who are running stores on their own sites, rather than directing to Paypal, but just thought I should check.:

    We’re contacting our merchants with some important information in response to an industry-wide security upgrade which is not unique to PayPal. This change involves upgrading Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) certificates over the course of 2015 and 2016.

    Because these changes are technical in nature, we advise that you consult with your partner, website vendor, or individuals responsible for your PayPal integration. They will be able to identify what, if any, changes are needed. If you do not have a technology team, we recommend you find one, and we can work with them to ensure you continue to process payments through your current integration with PayPal.

    Full technical details can be found in our Merchant Security System Upgrade Guide. In addition, our 2015-2016 SSL Certificate Change microsite contains a schedule of our service upgrade plan.

    Questions can be directed to our Merchant Technical Services team on our Technical Support website. Click here for more information.

    Thanks for your patience as we continue to improve our services.

    Yeah, CampTix should be unaffected by that.
