Merchant Gateways & Shopping Carts
Shopping Carts are virtual
programs that store the sales information from your site for
secure transmission to the gateway clearing house for the
processing of the sales on your web site.
All of the providers listed here have proven track records
and have been providing secure web transaction services for
several years.
Although many merchant shopping cart programs require that
you have your own merchant account most of the providers listed
below can get you up and running with or without your own
merchant account. In addition, many of the programs listed
here are very economical to use and charge very modest fees
for processing your online sales.
Unlike Yahoo and many other on line storefront platforms
that limit you to using "one-size-fits-all" predefined
store front templates, the shopping cart programs listed here
allow you full control over your web site or online store.
In addition, they do not require you to be hosted with them,
this allows you full and total control over the design, use
and look of your web site. We can fully integrate these shopping
carts & gateway processing programs within the sites we
design for your company which allow us to maintain the branding
of your company. *
Before signing up research the policies of each one. If
you are not sure which provider might be best for your company
we will assist you, just email us with your questions. If
you are planning on selling non shippable items such as downloadable
software or other digital media, or if you need payment services
for consulting work please see our other section on Alternative Providers.
*Please note: Our clients are in no way limited to using
one of these providers, and we can work with any provider
of our clients choosing.

Gateway Services &
Shopping Carts
NO merchant account is needed - you get to use theirs!
Service Options:
Card Processing Only
Service includes everything except fulfillment. Ship
your own orders, but use iFulfill.com's secure shopping
cart to take orders and process credit cards. Perfect
for web merchants who don't have a merchant account,
but wish to ship products themselves.
Fulfillment Only Service
For web merchants who are looking for a fulfillment
service, but aren't quite big enough (yet) to "talk"
to a "traditional" fulfillment house. Orders
are transmitted to iFulfill.com via FTP or email for
fulfillment. Use of this service requires that the web
merchant have a cart and card processing solution in
place.
Literature Fulfillment Service
For fulfillment needs that don't require payment on
the customers part. If you give away some tangible item
on your site (literature, CD, survey "thank you",
etc.), then this is the iFulfill.com service for you.
This service will be available soon.
Pricing
Pricing for this service is broken down into two elements:
a fulfillment fee and an order processing fee.
The order processing fee is 9% of the total dollar amount
charged and covers processing the order in our shopping
cart, and charging the customers credit card against
our merchant account.
The fulfillment fee is based on a sliding scale so
your cost per order shipped decreases significantly
as weekly volume goes up. This allows us to offer this
infrastructure to a wide variety of merchants with varying
volume levels.
The "whole ball of wax"
The "complete" iFulfill.com service includes
everything from the "buy" button back: product
warehousing, secure shopping cart, credit card processing,
picking, packing, shipping, tracing, and tracking.
When your customer is done shopping, they are taken
to a secure page where the transaction is completed
and the credit card is charged, the order is transmitted
(securely) to the merchant for fulfillment. The charge
will appear on the clients credit card statement as
"iFulfill.com", along with our toll free telephone
number. We try hard to let the customer know that their
order is being processed by iFulfill.com, but when that
credit card statement comes and they still don't recognize
the name, we want to provide every means possible for
them to get information on the charge. This reduces
chargebacks and eliminates problems for us and for our
While we can work with merchants that have their own
merchant accounts, the bulk of our clients do not. We
process transactions as a third party, much like CCNow
or iBill.

Doing business on the Net means finding a secure, cost-effective,
and reliable way to collect payment and process transactions.
Authorize.Net fills that need with a server-based real-time
transaction processing system. Merchants with a valid
merchant account can use the system to submit, authorize,
capture, and settle credit card and electronic check
transactions without the need for a separate transaction
terminal or processing software. There are three main
methods of processing transactions through the system:
Virtual Terminal - allows you to manually process mail
and telephone credit card transactions, as well as issue
credits, just like a real physical terminal, but with
the added flexibility of letting you access it from
any Internet connection in the world.
WebLink - allows merchants to link their web site to
the system in order to accept credit card payments from
customers in real-time with complete automation.
ADC (Automated Direct Connect) - provides a mechanism
to link more complex web sites with the transaction
gateway server, requires custom programming.
Electronic Check Withdrawals are also supported on the
Authorize.Net system through eCheck.Net service. eCheck.Net
is an optional item available with additional fees.
