Credit Cards

To accept credit cards through your store, you will have to set up an Internet Merchant Account (IMA) and a Payment Gateway.

 

The IMA is usually done through your bank but there are other solutions. There are also many choices for the payment gateway as well. Because the IMA and the Gateway has to integrate with your bank account and their are costs and fees associated with each of them, we think it is better for the client to obtain them.

 

The following illustration depicts how the transactions are handled.

1. Your customer enters their credit card information in your online store.

2. The Payment Gateway encrypts data and securely sends it to your IMA.

3. The transaction is reviewed for authorization by the customer’s issuing bank.

4. The result is encrypted and sent back through the gateway.

5. You get the results and decide whether or not to fulfill the order.

Building the Catalog

Just to prepare you, the more items you offer your customers the longer it will take you to build the catalog. Each item in the catalog will need product images and descriptions that will have to be provided by you.

 

Now the intuitive control panel make 'publishing' the catalog items easy, but if you have a large number of items that you offer your customers, it will still be a time consuming process. This is the number one issue that is not anticipated by the store owners.
