This Rapidway Package is targeted at first time commerce customers who want to put 10 or less
items on line. It doesn't support real time credit card processing, but everything can be
done off-line. This is the perfect plan to get started with commerce and test the waters. |
This Rapidway Package helps merchants with less than 100 items get on-line. Real time credit card
processing is not built into the product. This Pak is also good for people getting started
online and those with more items to sell, but who do not have a high volume of
transactions to offset the costs of implementing online processing. |
This Rapidway Package supports an unlimited number of items and has built-in CyberCash credit
card processing. This Pak is ideal for merchants with a large catalog of items and/or more
than 100 transactions per month. This is for serious e-commerce merchants. |
This Rapidway Package allows the merchant to publish an unlimited number of items. The plan
includes built-in Cybercash processing, a link to Quick Books, a drop ship order
fulfillment module and IC Verify Support. This is the ideal product for a merchant who
wants to build a big and automated store online that can process lots of transactions and
integrate into the order fulfillment and accounting processes of the business. |
