GemRock Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 An Internet merchant account is not all that is needed for accepting card payment online. You also need online payment service from your bank if they have such a service, or a payment gateway to go between you (your online shop) and your bank from whom you got your business account. Once you got all these in place, either your bank or the payment gateway should give you instructions how to link your osc shop to their service. This typically would involve installation of a proper payment module. You will be asked or have a chance to enter you merchant account info during the installation.

Dragonkeeper Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 I think it might be a little more involved that just configuring your site. You might want to take a look at this website http://www.skipjack.com as it provides the actual gateway for accepting credit cards. I am about to take that step myself but haven't been able to get to it yet. There is probably a contribution which will help you configure your site to do the front end acceptance. But, you might have to look a little bit as, again, I haven't gotten that far just yet.

takecardstoday.com Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 There are really three parts to building an ecommerce store... 1. The website itself 2. The shopping cart 3. The payment gateway (such as authorize.net) 4. The merchant account itself. Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
