Payment Gateway

The utilization of a merchant account and payment gateway will provide a seamless, professional checkout experience on your website. Credit card information will be accepted directly on your website, encrypted by an SSL security certificate, and transmitted to your payment gateway for processing. Once the payment is verified, the funds will be made available in your merchant account.

Recommended Merchant Accounts / Payment Gateways:

• Authorized.net
• eProcessingNetwork
• PayPal Payments Pro
• Paybycheck
• SkipJack

Third Party Processing

In terms of fixed cost, a third party payment processor is the least expensive option for accepting credit card payments. Unfortunately, it will require your customers to enter credit card information on the website of your third party payment processor. The additional checkout steps, and introduction of a potentially unfamiliar procedure, may result in an increase of abandoned shopping carts.

Recommended Third Party Payment Processors:

• PayPal Express Checkout
• Google Checkout
• 2Checkout
