At softforge we specialise in eCommerce sites.

After you have a shopping cart set up and products included you also need.

For anyone starting on the road to web sales there are a few items you will need.

• An eCommerce ID
• A SSL certificate
• A static IP

E-Commerce ID

This is similar to a merchant ID which allows a shop to take payments with terminals in stores.

Its a web equivolent. If you dont have a merchant account then we can point you in the direction of a good eCommerce bank and help you through the process of getting the forms filled in. The process depends on the bank involved and can take up to two weeks.

SSL certificate. This is the certificate which shows that you are secure. It is used in the encryption process to provide a secure connection with the payment gateway, we use Protx.We can obtain the certificate and do all the work needed to configure it for you.

A static IP is simple to set up and we can do all of that for you.
