We process many on-line orders and phone orders every day using LSMB. For on-line orders we use a free site that securely handles gathering card details (so we never have to keep them locally). This service can link directly to a number of card processors. It's dead simple to integrate this in to your web site (e-mail me at [email protected] with a meaningful subject for the address). Phone orders are typed into the card machine while the customer is on the phone. Personally I don't think keeping card details within LSMB is a good idea unless one is extremely confident about security, and, for phone orders, you're going to have to type the numbers into the card machine anyway.
