Hi,
Kind of off-topic, but I am kind of floating lost for a little while now. I had been processing credit cards through Omnirush when I was using GoldMine. They've since discontinued that feature, so I'm trying to find some sort of easy way to store credit cards for clients who want automated billing, or billing with card on file. I use an Authorize.net account, but have been unsuccessful finding a solution. I think it may even be possible to use some sort of tie-in with CommitCRM to pull client info and submit it to the Authorize.net virtual terminal, but I'm not that good at my programming skills. Thanks in advance, Scott |

Hi Scott, Have you considered using RangerMSP's Online Services? If the Authorize.net service is a Web based service, perhaps this can work for you.
Using Online Services you can access a URL and pass account details as parameters for this URL, so you may be able to easily pull the account details in this other system quite easily. You can read more about this feature in RangerMSP here. Neta |

My rates are really low (1.88 with card, 2.18 without) with no monthly fee. Nobody's been able to match that, and I have heard that QuickBooks is quite expensive.
The Online services option is interesting, I believe Authorize.net has an API, will have to do some homework. Thanks |

The rate isn't the only thing to consider. I'm no expert but monthly charges, authorization charge, statement fee, handling fees, etc. all come into play. If your rate is very low and authorization fee very high and you process a bunch of low-dollar transactions you would be worse off than having a higher rate and lower authorization fee.
My rate is 2.15% qualified, with a 1.00% non-qualified surcharge and $0.15 authorization fee with no monthly fees. My percentages may be higher but if stsanford has monthly fees and authorization charges he may effectively be paying more. Luckily, I have a friend in the business that simply gave me his best rates so I didn't have to worry about all the details because it is ridiculously complicated. |
