eCommerce?

Asked by: pegnorth

I need a simple eCommerce package that has a shopping cart, merchant account, gateway... in other words a complete turnkey service all in one with no hidden costs or hidden services.

I would prefer a company in the U.S.

There's a damn good (Belgian) company who takes care of Visa, MasterCard, Proton, ... payments via the net. Their name: ProxyPay. As the name says: it's only a proxy. What happens: you make templates used for your store and they provide the backend (the payment and stuff). I doubt however that they provide the use of shopping carts.
ProxyPay @ http://www.proxypay.com

A company which DOES provice shopping carts: Americart. If you're operating from the US, it's certainly worth considering. What I really like about them is that they include shipping (UPS, FedEx, ...) FOR FREE. More info on their website.

Yet another service: VirtualCart Secure Shopping. Short: Vcart.

From their website:

Your business benefits from the following features:
* No setup costs, transaction costs or hidden fees.
* Risk-free, 30-day trial period.
* We provide the SSL security and digital certificate.
* Supports 1 product or 10,000 products.
* Works with any existing web page with no modifications.
* No complicated CGI programming necessary.
* You can use any hosting services.
* You can use your existing merchant account service.
* Unmatched reliability and performance.
* Gives your business a professional look.
* Builds customer confidence, which sells your goods.
* Free VirtualCart tech support by phone or e-mail.
 
Your customer benefits from the following features:
* Fully secure.
* Fast and reliable.
* Easy to checkout or modify orders.
* Easy to navigate and understand.
*Calculates all shipping, handling and sales tax.
* International friendly.
* A professional and clean look

VirtualCart @ http://www.vcart.com/

I can really recommend this last one, as they also include taxing, shipping and handling. And that's something you don't find every day!

Hope this helped you out!
