You are right I wouldnt,. I would however have to worry about people claiming they didnt make the call or it was from an unauthorized person and then having to send out armies of collection agents to get the money. This is basically what killed most 900 numbers in america in the 90s. > iBill used to have something called web900 where you phoned and got a > generic token to use on the web, you could just accept those tokens (just > a number) and not deal with the 900 part at all.

(iBill is adult friendly btw, > porn is their bread and butter) Yeah stuff like that has been around since the 80s, people running majorbbs used that for pay services there. However this customer wanted something all in house. There are merchant accounts that have fees below 2%, granted those typically require more information to be provided to offset potential fraudulent transactions. I have done merchant stuff via web based applciations in the past and it looks like that is what its going to take in this instance. I will have to discuss it with this customer and see what they want to do. Since they want to incorporate certain features that require internet access a webpage shouldnt be too much of a problem. -- Trixter http://www.0xdecafbad.com Bret McDanel UK +44 870 340 4605 Germany +49 801 777 555 3402 US +1 360 207 0479 or +1 516 687 5200 FreeWorldDialup: 635378
