seeing credit card payment processing advice
My company has been doing ecommerce for years now using a custom CF shopping
cart to collect the customer?s data, then we use CyberSource for the US and UK
and a company called Sogenactif (for France and a few others) to do the credit
card payment processing once the order has transferred to our internal
accounting system. We have subsidiary offices all over the world, and
supporting all of those currencies is quite a challenge. We have sites in
Euros, Swiss Franc, Swedish Krones, Nowegian Krones, Yen, UK pounds, etc and
setting up any more individual payment processors is not only a pain but
unscalable and downright unruly.
Does anyone know of a truly global payment processor? Does anyone have any
helpful advice?
I?m not looking to integrate a new shopping basket e.g. PayPal?

Answer: Is PayPal good enough for you? We use PayPal for our on-line credit
card and electronic check processing. Our business is primarily US, but
I've noticed that PayPal discuses international issues in their API
documentation.
-It's nothing personal against PayPal, I'm currently investigating their PayFlow
Gateway: https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_profile-comparison which
looks like a payment processor sans the customer interaction with PayPal.
Unfortunately I can't seem to find any specifications on European currencies
and communications with credit card banks.
Since we have a merchant account we only need a service to authorize and bill
users credit cards, no shopping basket, no processing through the Service's own
bank.
