the answer is yes... couple of things here...
from their non-CF server to yours please use SSL for communications. Otherwise it is plain text and someone could pull the financials... Next there will be overhead on the transaction and overhead... be sure to build some logic into the system to tolerate delay.... Then again, is this a business that will benefit by the higher costs of online processing..?? DO they do the volume or will they really to cover startup costs, monthly minimums, per transaction costs? I often workout systems that collect the data and allow the merchants to manually key the data into their POS terminals... It works well for most traditional businesses. the clearer doesn't care typically where the data originates from.. as long as you provide the right authentication method and account information... -paris -----Original Message----- From: megan sherman [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, October 17, 2001 21:53 To: CF-Talk Subject: client wants online credit card processing Hi all, I've been getting deeper into cold fusion, and it's working out quite well. I have a client who wants credit card processing. But his domain is hosted with a service that doesn't support cold fusion. So I've been handling the non-database portion of his web site by uploading html files to his server, and for database requirements I've been calling cfm files from the server that hosts my domain. If cold fusion processing takes place on my server, can he still get credit card processing (from BofA or the like)? If so, how?
