.... and with the "card present" account, you are probably getting a reduction in fees.

For various dumb reasons my boss wants to use the card present account to process web transactions. I tried bouncing a web transaction off the card present account, but not surprisingly got the error "account not authorized for that type of transaction" or some such. My boss thinks that because you are basically doing the same thing with either account, IE sending a transaction request out over the web, you should be able to process a web transaction with the card present account. I'm telling him that there is probably some information that gets sent along to the card present account that lets it know it is coming from the swipe of an actual credit card, so there's no way to "trick" Authorize.net. If you could, it would obviate the whole idea of having a card present account. Who's right, me or my boss? -- Josh ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Upgrade to Adobe ColdFusion MX7 Experience Flex 2 & MX7 integration & create powerful cross-platform RIAs http:http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;56760587;14748456;a?http://www.adobe.com/products/coldfusion/flex2/?sdid=LVNU Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:268543 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
