Will Ubercart work without https ?

Issue Summary

Having the need for SSL and dedicated IP makes it impossible to take advantage of drupal's multi-site setup.

In order to use ssl on multiple domains we have to use separate hosting accounts for each domain just to get a dedicated ip. This also means multiple drupal installs.

What's the point of multi-site if we can't use it. Which is why I want to find out if Ubercart will work without https.

SSL is a big scam anyway, all just to see a green addressbar is ridiculous. I've seen some online stores that didn't use https and their store still worked.

Will Ubercart work without https ?

It would be cool if Drupal had their own built in ssl alternative that made the visitors browser turn green with a padlock.

Please ask support questions in the forums at ubercart.org.

Answer is it depends - some things like payment processors require SSL. But you'd be stupid not to run SSL on an e-commerce website, for many reasons. Spend the $15 and get yourself a certificate.
