Be very, very careful here.  I'm a Counterpoint dealer and most of the
CP users have the credit card interface provided by Synchronics.
You've got to have their program to use their credit card processor.

The dangerous part about this is Visa and their regulations.  Violate
the regs and allow theft of cardholder info, and you can win a
six-figure fine plus loss of privileges to accept cards.  The death
sentence for most retailers.

Check this site for more information, and follow the links to find
approved processors.

Do not fly by the seat of your pants in this situation.  Good luck.

Many of the products and books I review are things I purchased for my own use. Some were given to me specifically for the purpose of reviewing them. I resell or can earn commissions from the sale of some of these items. Links within these pages may be affiliate links that pay me for referring you to them. That's mostly insignificant amounts of money; whenever it is not I have made my relationship plain. I also may own stock in companies mentioned here. If you have any question, please do feel free to contact me.

Specific links that take you to pages that allow you to purchase the item I reviewed are very likely to pay me a commission. Many of the books I review were given to me by the publishers specifically for the purpose of writing a review. These gifts and referral fees do not affect my opinions; I often give bad reviews anyway.
