| Merchant Payment Center
click here for detailed
information
Merchants who want to accept and authorize
credit card payments in their online store have the
option of signing up for Merchant Payment Center. Merchant
Payment Center consolidates and automates the tasks
of establishing a merchant bank account and accessing
an Internet payment gateway for transaction processing.
Merchant Payment Center's merchant account services
are provided through MetalWeb's partnership with Bank
One. * Merchant Payment Center included with EC-3
plan type.
When you sign up for a plan, Mercantec
will send you a CD which includes the PGP encryption
software for the client machine. Until you receive the
CD, you will be able to demo the software, but you not
be able to receive orders securely until you have the
PGP Client Key. When you fill out the license agreement
for the software, the PGP Key will be sent to the address
that you list in the sign up process. Pick the right
address for yourself or your client.
For International customers, Mercantec
has received the export license for their PGP encryption
and we are pleased to be the first company to offer
their product internationally. Due to U.S. export
restrictions on encryption technology, we are not permitted
to sell this product to people in the following countries:
Afghanistan, Cuba, Iran, Iraq, Libya, North Korea, Pakistan,
Sudan, Syria. If you are a customer in one of these
countries, we will shortly be offering Open Market's
ShopSite commerce product which does not have the PGP
encryption. You will be able to use this product to
build a commerce website as soon as it is available.
The following add-on modules
are available on the Mercantec SoftCart Ecommerce plans
and can be requested by contacting MetalWeb's support
department directly:
Clear Commerce Module: Clear Commerce is a turn
key real-time credit card processing application.
With one simple application, your online store is
automatically configured and can begin to take online
transactions. This module is installed with all EC
3 plans and is optional for all EC 1 and EC 2
Plans. (An additional $30/month - does not include
discount rate or per transaction fees)
Drop Ship Module: If your company has many divisions
in different locations, this module will allow for
the order to go to the appropriate location. Additional
$25.00 per month.
QuickBooks Module: Gives the ability to use Mercantec
with the Quickbooks program. This gives you the ability
to track the sales and revenue through this well known
program. Additional $15.00 per month.
