SSL Certificates, Authoirze.Net questions?

[milesdavis]

Hello everyone,

 

I thought I had it all figured out.

 

I set-up the sites merchant account and gateway through Wells Fargo and Authoirze.Net.

 

I purchased the dedicated IP so the site could run secure pages through the https:// extension and retain the sites domain name.

 

Now, in hoping to connect my oscommerce to authorize.Net, I am told that I have to purchase a SSL Certificate in order to make this happen. The only other alternative is to have secure pages re-directed to Authorize.Net's secure section, and change the address bar information.

 

First, what are my options in this regard?

 

Second, If I use the SIM connection and re-direct to Authoirze.Net, how will this effect oscommerce on pages where a user logs into their account, and other secure areas -- will they retain the oscommercec page format if they are being redirected to Authoirze.Net?

 

thanks, I am very confused and much appreciate any advice.

you need an ssl certificate, in order to use authorizenet

you already pay for the dedicated ip, and you can get a cert (not top of the line but works) for 30/year, with a 2 year minimum

They do not really like commercial posts but do a google search for ssl certificates and you will find quite a few companies with reasonable rates.

If I go with a ssl cert from either of these companies, do I have to have the "protected by Go Daddy.Com Turbo SSL!" logo on my pages? That looks kinda cheezy to me (tho' it's a great price).

 

thanks all!

No, adding the logo is your choice
