Ajeh Posted October 28, 2002 Share Posted October 28, 2002 Buy domain name ... Buy hosting space ... Load oscommerce ... Configure oscommerce ... Buy stuff to sell ... Price and add to inventory ... Advertise site ... Send out purchases ... You are in business ... :D Can you be a bit more specific as to what you are having trouble with?

aidas Posted October 28, 2002 Author Share Posted October 28, 2002 thank you for you answer Ajeh. I have all these things, but main thing i want to know is about shiping and how to take money from my customer credit card. How do i do this?

sefu Posted October 28, 2002 Share Posted October 28, 2002 Shipping is easy, all you need to find is a courier or even use your local post office. Payment is difficult, you will need to get a credit card merchant to be able to take payment out of customers credit card. You can either consult your bank or use a 3rd party gateway such as worldpay.com, mind you the 3rd party merchants take a higher commission Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

besheer Posted October 29, 2002 Share Posted October 29, 2002 Wow. I just checked worldpay.com. That is extremely expensive. You've got to be selling a lot of stuff and making a lot of money off of each sale to pay all that money. Is that pretty much what all these services charge? And is worldpay.com the most common? I would do a search but I really don't know what to use as a search term. Drive it like you stole it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sefu Posted October 29, 2002 Share Posted October 29, 2002 3rd Party merchant accounts pricing structure is similar. Just use the search term "credit card merchant" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
