Sign Up For An Internet Merchant Account

An Internet Merchant Account is for those businesses that will be operating an e-Commerce website and accepting payments from customers via the Internet. Customers will not be physically present and their payment information will be transmitted to the Merchant Account Processor via a Secure Payment Gateway. The Payment Gateway can be accessed in 3 separate ways: (1) integrated with your website via an Application Programming Interface (API); (2) linked to your website via an html link on your Site; or (3) via a Virtual Terminal that allows you to process Authorizations, Sales, and Returns manually.
