credit card payment

B

BillE

Hi -

I am looking for some documentation about integrating credit card payments
with dotNet web applications.

I have found tons of information about setting up on line credit card
payments, but I would like to find some more specific information relating
to dotNet to make sure I'm doing it the best way.

Please let me know of any good sources of information for this.

Thanks
Bill

This is specific to who you have merchant account with....

Most common is authorizenet.com. It's actually a gateway that you supported
by a lot of merchants. So you talk to gateway and they communicate to the
merchant.

their documentation is here
http://developer.authorize.net/

Yea, I forgot that i have the code for authroizenet already written.
took about 2 hours to do

here it is
1st you create object then use SendRequest to actually send that request to
authorize

This is a huge topic and I am not sure there is a "how to" guide anywhere on
the web that is not sponsored by someone with a stake in the business.

In general, you need a payment processor. On the simplest level, you can use
PayPal. They are fairly easy to use if you pass people off to them.
n/Software makes a payment component that works with .NET and will work with
a variety of payment processors. I would consider this option if you want
something that is easy to fold into your application and allows you the
greatest flexibility on payment processors. If you know what processor you
are going to use, they may

There are other components out there, as well. One place to look for
components is Componentsource.com. I would also get familiar with sites like
SharpToolbox.com, as it has a variety of .NET software, both free and paid.
If you want open source, you can go to codeplex.com or sourceforge.net and
search.

Thanks for the response. It doesn't seem particularly difficult, but there
are so many alternatives that it is hard to determine the best option. I'll
follow up on your leads.
