Yes. Your online merchant account will not work without a secure protected
gateway that safeguards transaction information. Once the sales transaction is
complete, the information is sent back through the gateway to complete the
order and provide you with verification.
The gateway is also necessary for the
secure transfer of funds from your customer's credit card to your business
checking account. The e-commerce gateway offers many administrative features
such as: viewing orders, keeping sales and tax records, etc.
We handle the purchase and installation of the gateway for you. We are billed
monthly by the gateway company. We pass along that price to you at a savings
by billing one year in advance. That allows us to forego the need for monthly billing
of our customers. The amount paid is pro-rated and if for any reason you discontinue
your service, we pro-rate the balance paid back to you.
