Merchant Accounts - Credit Card Processing

Authorize.Net WebLink

Authorize.Net WebLink is a secure online payment-processing system that allows Internet-based businesses to authorize, process and manage credit card transactions directly from their Web site. There are no worries about the complicated software, hardware and expertise normally associated with enabling e-commerce.

Authorized.net

WebLink works in one of two ways: It either captures the necessary customer information (name, credit card number, etc.) from a merchant’s own secure transaction page, or it displays a customizable transaction page hosted on an Authorize.Net secure server, for the customer to fill out.

Linking a merchant's Web site to the Authorize.Net’s online, real time credit card processing system is simple. The merchant's Web site designer or developer simply inserts a few lines of HTML code that we provide to establish the link. Authorize.Net supports most available shopping cart software, so it integrates easily with most e-commerce solutions. Merchants can also check the status of credit card transactions or run reports on past activity by going to the Authorize.Net Web site and logging on to their own password-protected Authorize.Net site. Online businesses can also use the Authorize.Net Virtual Terminal to enter credit card payment information manually if customers prefer to call in with their credit card information.
The customer’s information is encrypted using 40- or 128-bit Secure Socket Layer technology and sent to an Authorize.Net transaction server. The server sends the data through the authorization network to the appropriate card issuer's bank, using a secure, proprietary connection. When the authorization process is complete -- this takes around five seconds -- the customer receives an approval or decline response and the Authorize.Net server stores the transaction. Transactions are automatically settled each day and are typically funded within two to three business days.

Below is an example of the basic code that must be implemented to link to WebLink:

<formaction="https://secure.authorize.net/gateway/transact.dll">
<input type="hidden" name="x_login" value="MyLoginID">
<input type="hidden" name="x_version" value="3.0">
<input type="hidden" name="x_show_form" value="payment_form">
<input type="hidden" name="x_amount" value="1.00">
<input type="submit" value="Click Here to Continue">
</form>
