Merchant services handle the transfer of funds from your customers to you.<p><em>Secure Certificate<\/em>\u00a0\u2014 To protect your customers\u2019 credit card information, merchant services require credit card transactions to be protected by a secure certificate, also known as an SSL. Secure certificates prevent theft of your customers\u2019 credit card numbers by encrypting the information sent to the merchant service.<\/p><p>A merchant service does not automatically deposit transactions into your bank account. All transactions must be manually approved. For more information, see\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.secureserver.net\/help\/article\/718?prog_id=501414&amp;locale=en\">How does collecting payment work?<\/a><\/p><p><strong>PayPal<\/strong>\u00a0\u2014 Unlike a merchant service, PayPal doesn\u2019t require a secure certificate (more information on that under Credit Card, above) and doesn\u2019t charge a monthly fee. The only requirement is that you have a PayPal Business Account.<\/p><p>Once a customer pays for an order using PayPal, PayPal verifies the transaction and transfers the funds into your PayPal account.<\/p><p>After speaking with several customer service representatives, we decide PayPal is convenient for our customers and us. We set up a Business Account with PayPal and provided Quick Shopping Cart with the email address associated with the account.<\/p><p><strong>COD<\/strong>\u00a0\u2014 Cash on Delivery is less common these days, but still has value as a means to allow customers to purchase products even if they do not have, or want to use, a credit card or online wallet service such as PayPal.<\/p><p><strong>Print and Call<\/strong>\u00a0\u2014 Print and Call ordering allows your customer to arrange payment with a credit card over the phone, through a purchase order or some other way.<\/p><\/li><li>Click\u00a0<strong>OK<\/strong>.<\/li><\/ol><\/div><\/div><div class=\"many-open, all-closed\"><h3 class=\"display\" title=\"bounce\"><a title=\"bounce\" href=\"https:\/\/www.secureserver.net\/help\/article\/5400?ci=1827&amp;prog_id=501414#bounce\">Configuring Taxes<\/a><\/h3><div class=\"stretcher\"><p>You might find that your online company needs to tax its orders.
