For example, Satchmo: http://www.satchmoproject.com/ Also, don't be afraid to integrate with something not written in python. If you can find something with a nice API that meets your needs, it's probably worth using it rather than write your own from scratch. If you do write your own, you need to decide on a merchant services provider. They all have different APIs. Obviously you don't want to design the software to be tied to one provider, but getting a feel for what the common workflow is by examining several APIs will help you determine what needs to happen on your end. Also, if you want to use a merchant services provider that isn't paypal, it is likely that you'll need to put your software through an expensive certification process before a provider will allow you to process transactions. The credit card industry takes the security of credit card data very seriously, so they don't want transactions being handled by just any one-off amateur software (not that you would write amateur software, but you might have to prove that you didn't). I have experience with this in the US, but if you operate outside the US, you may be subject to different levels of regulation.
