I'm running asp.net 2.0 and sql server 2k. It's been several years since I ran credit cards over the net. I need for the website to be able to accept credit cards and store them encrypted in the database for re-ordering purposes and automatic billing (not a strict requirement but preferred). The fees are set - $50, $100, or $200, and I'd like them to be seemless transactions (never leaving the site if possible). I currently have no merchant account to process credit cards but want to start doing so..only necessary online, not at a retail location. Where should I begin? What is the most cost-effective way to do this while not sacrificing functionality? My biz is located in Appleton, WI.
You may want to consider using a third party transaction vendor like paypal.com. Eric DiscountASP.NET http://www.DiscountASP.NET
i would not go w/ verisign, their integration is not very straight forward. we use authorize.net and have been satisfied with them. Try contact one of our merchant partner, PaySystems at http://eforms.paysystems.com/DiscountASP/ Bruce DiscountASP.NET www.DiscountASP.NET
I really don't want to use paypal if i don't have to, since not everyone uses it. My customer base isn't necessarily the tech-savvy and is B2B.
