Present your
products and services online - You're well on your way
toward building your e-Commerce site since you're reading
this. Common sense applies here...put your product or
service at the fingertips of your customer by preparing a catlog of
goods or services and provide a point-of-purchase. This is
much like a reservation center or checkout of a retail store.
Payment Processing
- In order for your Web site to be a business, you must have a
secure and efficient means of transacting the order. Our
Alacart Shopping cart works for you in this regard, providing you
with payment information or even processing the transaction in
real-time. If you accept credit cards, then you must have a
Merchant Account or locate a gateway service to process your
payments for you. Visit your local bank for information about
a low-cost Merchant Account.

Secure the
Transaction - Rest assured that your customer's information is
encrypted using SSL - for free. The certificates many
sites use can cost as much as $500! On Gryphon Hosting, when
you select a plan with the Alacart Shopping Cart system, you can use
our certificate for free! If you have your own certificate, we
can accommodate your needs.
