Info

Hmmm.  I guess I wasn't clear.  I was thinking I could save the form info to a disk file, PGP mail it out and then delete the disk file.  Having the info in a deleted disk file would be an OK risk for what I currently want to do.

Sean,
Did you consider the alternative of outsourcing the CC acceptance? That puts the burden of the encryption and the Cybercash on the outsourcer's side (you never have to see the CC number). There are many alternatives that are cheaper than what you were discussing using these services. When your volume get high you could always switch to a local solution.

Check the thread with JoeRT to see some of the alternatives that are out there. I've used ibill and CCNow but I've also heard good things about plugnpay (from a web developer colleague).

Cheers,

I have thought about that, but i will be setting up accounts and need the credit card # of file for future orders..Well, if i can set that up. Might need MySQL/PHP for that. Me and my webmaster are still in the newbie stage on the e-commerce side of it. Web page design is not problem. Guess reading up on things is the only way to learn. And of course, here!!!
Know any e-commerce experts that can help us out in setting up my web page for online ordering??

Sean,

"Plugnpay remote" may be what you need.

I noticed that they do keep the CC info on file for future reuse (and it's off your server which is good for security).

Here is their URL:

http://www.plugnpay.com/

As I mentioned before I haven't used them but I have a colleague who does for E-zine subscriptions and he does like them.

I also do web programming (Perl, C++, JavaScript, Coldfusion, etc - but not PHP yet ) so let me know if you'd like help with some of these things, or would like help integrating one of the less-expensive packages such as the Webware Merchant Order form.

Cheers,

Just a note: the link provided by Rich in message 3 or 4 of this thread, to the McAfee online purchasing system for PGP? Worked, all these months later. Nevermind that I used it and the servers are all too stressed to send the )#&$^! thing to me...

Anyway, another place (that I can't recommend since I've never actually purchased there) that has PGP for sale as a downloadable, is http://www.digitalriver.com/dr/v2/ec...&xid=20539 (Which is the Soft4u.com purchase site)  No idea if that URL will survive as long as the McAfee one, but it's an option.
