10. What are the advantages of Online/Electronic Transactions? - Top

• Reduces Errors: No need to enter transaction amounts at both the cash register and processing terminals.
  
• Creates Transaction Database: Stores transaction information in your database for as long as you want. You'll never have to search for lost transaction information.
  
• Increases Accountability: It is easy to confirm whether you have received the proper amount of credit for each transaction.
  
• Minimizes Fraud: Performs address verification (AVS), and eliminates the chance of shipping to someone using a stolen credit card, saving you from a charge back.
  
• Quicker Transactions: Allows you to send multiple transactions as a batch, thus reducing authorization time to as low as three seconds per transaction.
  
• Eliminates Equipment: Multiple registers can share a single modem, and phone line, thus saving money.
  
• Lowers Transaction Costs: Electronic processing is faster and less expensive than paper processing.
  
• Faster Billing: Makes it easy to build and process a batch of transactions as often as needed; great for recurring billing.
  
• Recurring Billing: Schedule transactions to be processed according to your specific billing requirements.

11. Can I use Miva with my existing merchant account? - Top

Miva Merchant software will work in one manner or another with any Merchant Bank. The limitations that can exist are related to doing a live authorization at the time your customer places the order or actually having to manually process the order in your office at days end. Our Merchant accounts are setup with the ability for miva to communicate with the Card Processing center directly and get a credit card authorization in seconds why your client is still on your order page. This allows for immediate confirmation the order is in processing and if a problem did occur the customer could enter another credit card or choose a different form of payment before leaving.

12. What is the difference between a web site and an e-commerce web site? - Top

• An ordinary web site presents prospective customers with only information and the only purchasing options available are off-line. On the other hand an e-commerce web site not only presents all the required information but also provides secure options to complete the sale right there.
  
  
• An ordinary web site is like a copy of your printed catalog, only presenting information, whereas an e-commerce web site is a new business unit that complements your existing traditional selling channels and accentuates an entirely new sales/distribution channel.
  
  
• An ordinary web site offers limited security options. On the other hand e-commerce web sites provide options for high levels of security by encrypting data and transferring it over secure servers.
  
  
• An ordinary web site operates entirely outside your existing business system. All orders have to be manually entered into the system and processed off-line. Whereas an e-commerce web site integrates into your existing system for inventory control, order processing and order fulfillment. A fully integrated e-commerce web site automatically ties into your existing business process and acts like an extension to your existing sales force.

13. I already have an E-Commerce Store, I want to now change my Hosting Provider, what do I do? - Top

You will need to submit a domain modification/transfer request to the registry you originally registered with. Within 72 hours your domain name will be transferred to our servers. But in the mean time you can upload all your files to our servers using the IP# you receive once you have signed up for an e-commerce plan. The best way to avoid any downtime for your store during the transfer is to make sure that you don't cancel your account with your current hosting provider, until all your files have been uploaded to our servers and your site is live and ready to go. Incase you need assistance with uploading, you can use our 24/7 Support Desk. For assistance with Domain Modification contact our Sales Dept.

14. When am I charged the set-up fee and how long does the approval process take? - Top

The set-up fee will be charged once your application for the account has been approved. Applications with monthly volumes of or less than $30,000 are generally approved within 48 hours.

15. I have secure server access on my account, do I still have to pay secure gateway fees? - Top

Yes. We provide all accounts with access to secure servers so customers can order your product/services over a secure server.

The Secure Gateway Fees are for the secure transfer of information between your web page and the bank for processing the orders your customers place through your web site. Hence you need to pay the Secure Gateway Fees.

16. Do you include Merchant Accounts with your Web Hosting Services? - Top

No. Our web hosting services only provide a home for your web site and online store. But if you want to process credit cards online, then you will need a merchant account.

18. What is an Electronic Shopping Cart? - Top

An Electronic Shopping Cart works the same way a shopping cart does in the physical world. As customers browse through your online store, they can place products they intend buying in their virtual shopping cart, which keeps track of the products placed in it. When they are ready to leave your store, they click a "check out" link which shows them what they've placed in their virtual shopping cart. Here they have the option to remove items they are no longer interested in purchasing. Then they enter their shipping and payment information to process the order.
