Like this one: http://www.authorize.net/ The way I am just beginning to understand it, they are exploiting this abysmal customer support by creating a middle tier: - I communicate CC information to them. - They process it in a way that meets that standards of the chosen CC processor, and communicate to them and receives the response. - Passing the response back to my program. Of course, we pay them for the privilege. My understanding is that they work with a number of processors, and if we elect to change (in theory), we flip a switch and start processing with Ken's Bank instead of Chasing Tails Bank. I don't need to alter the program.
