Hi All
A customer of mine needs a shopping cart with the possibility to accept credit cards.
Have not a big clue of how that really works and before I sign up with a host I would like to clarify if I am on the right track:

1. I look for a host with integrated shopping cart solution (zencart etc.)
2. I apply for a merchant account. And can I take any merchant account?
3. I need a secure gateway...

Appreciate your help as I am really lost ....

And if anybody can suggest a good host I would be more than grateful!
Thanks,
Pothound

Zen-Cart is a good one also, its taken from oscommerce.

As for CC, you do need a merchant account, check with Authorize.net AIM account. You also need to purchase a SSL certificate, check out: www.instantssl.com

pothound, This topic is over a week old now, so I'm not sure if you've moved on. But the hosting you choose does not matter much. The host does not need to advertise that they are an ecommerce host. As long as they let you install an SSL certificate, you can use any shopping cart such as zencart, oscommerce etc.. Just be sure which ever shopping cart system you use, that it's is easily configurable with the merchant account/gateway you choose.

Dear All
Thank you all for your replies and help. Have not yet chosen either a host nor a merchant/gateway solution. Have read a bit more and think I am getting there.
The problem now is that there is not many merchant/gateway solution that allows us to have our bank accounts in Grenada, West Indies, Caribbean We are considered to be high risk...... due to offshore banking.....
