accounting features and pos customization

[clearchris <cl...@hotmail.com>]

Hello.

 

Do any of the credit card processors/gateways in the accounting package
support "card present" transactions?  If not, what have people used as
solutions?  Do they just pay the higher "card not present" rate?

 

Has anyone succeeded in editing the XUI sceens of the POS using the
Kaleideoscope plugin for either netbeans or eclipse?

 

Thanks!

 

Chris

Chris H, you are correct, the proper term is "swiped".  That said, the
processors in Europe are different than the US, so I'm not sure how much
will overlap.

If anyone is interested, I did some research on the features of the existing
integrated payment services/software.  My specific requirements are support
for swiped transactions and linux.  Authorize.Net may satisfy those
requirements, or I may end up writing an integration to a processor that
supports internet connectivity.

Full disclosure:  I worked for ClearCommerce.

Authorize.Net
	Aquired by First Data.
	I believe it is available as a service.
	Supports swiped and card not present transactions.
	http://www.authorize.net

ClearCommerce
	Aquired by Efunds.
	Available for purchase, or through third parties as a service.
	Supports leased line and internet connection to processor.
	Supports card not present and fraud detection.	
	http://www.clearcommerce.com

Cybersource
	Supports card not present and fraud detection.	
	Available as a service.

Go Software
	Aquired by Verifone, rebranded as PCCharge.
	Available as a software purchase, requires windows.
	Supports dial, leased line and internet connection to processor.
	Supports swiped and card not present transactions.

Paypal
	

ValueLink
	Rebranded as "First Data Gift Card"
	Provides gift card processing
	http://www.valuelink.info/

Verisign
	Aquired by PayPal, product called PayFlow Gateway
	Internet transactions only.
	Communication to processor via internet only.	
	It's priced per transaction, so it's probably a service.
	The web site is light on technical details

I think the distinction may be "swiped" vs manually entered.  Maybe it
helps ring a bell.

Chris,

We don't have "card present" transactions in France (everywhere now,
except on Internet, you must type your 4 digits card code - not the CVS
secure code used on Internet), so I'm not using this feature and I can't
answer you. I did not see any infos about that on the MLs or docs
either.

I'm not sure there are any interests to use the Kaleideoscope plugin in
the case of the POS. Editing by hands is so simple and quick.
