[e-gold-tech] Automated Payment
We are establish a service and we would like to be able to initiate automated payments via DGC's. Currently we do either EFT or CC payments. How can one automate payments via e-gold? My only thought was to set up an account for each of our customers that we would both know the passphrase. And then they could spend gold in and out of the account as they please. And our system would be able to automate spends as we needed. Is this a bad idea or is there another way? Thanks!

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- hi steve, check out the e-gold automation interface specification at: http://sci.e-gold.com you *do not* want to share an account between yourself and your customers. the automation interface allows you to programmatically initiate e-metal spends from your own account. there are various sites out there that implement automatic e-metal payments this way - possibly list readers would be happy to point out their own examples. any technical questions you may have about the e-gold automation interface (and shopping cart interface aka SCI) can be directed via email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] best, jay w.

Jay, Our service is a transaction based service that needs a one time authorization. Out client will give this authorization and fund the account. We will make withdrawals from the account as needed. The client can not authorize each spend since the users will not know the passphrase nor should they to a company e-gold account. What I would really like to see is dual access to a single account thus all spends initiated by user X are distinguished from those by user Y.

hi steve, there currently is not a many-user-to-one-account mode supported by e-gold. you could certainly wrap your own operations around one (or more) e-gold accounts and support many users such as 1mdc/fastgrams does. if the clients can only pay into the account and the service will make payments out of the account, it sounds like a normal use of a business account where you accept input payments via the e-gold SCI from any existing e-gold account holder and make programmatic payments whenever you'd like via the e-gold automation interface. but maybe i'm not getting the big picture however... example: i run a business that provides web site hosting - lets call it BFG-Hosting. i open a BFG e-gold account - say 12345. i use the e-gold SCI to accept payments to my 12345 account anytime someone signs up for hosting services with me. they pay from their own e-gold account. i use an SCI baggage field to let them specify the person that referred them. when my site is automatically notified by e-gold that a new customer has signed up and paid using the e-gold SCI, i look to see if they entered in a referring customer already using my service. if so, i use the e-gold automation interface to programmatically spend that referrer 1 gram of gold from my 12345 account. jay w.
