What is Authorize.net:
Authorize.net WebLink is a secure online payment-processing system that allows Internet-based businesses to authorize, process, and manage credit card transactions directly from their website. There are no worries about the complicated software, hardware, and expertise normally associated with enabling ecommerce. Click here for more information about Authorize.net.
How it works:
The customer's information is encrypted and sent to an Authorize.net transaction server. The server sends the data through the authorization network to the appropriate card issuer's bank, using a secure, proprietary connection. When the process is complete (approx. 5 seconds), the customer receives an approval or decline response. Transactions are automatically settled each day and are typically funded within 2 to 3 business days.
Merchants can check the status of transactions or run reports on past activity by logging on to their own password protected Authorize.net site. Online businesses also can use the Virtual Terminal to enter payment information manually if customers prefer to call in their credit card information.

Authorize.net is compatible with the following transaction processing networks:
