Optimal & Premier Account integration issues

a) Application Programming Interface (API)

Ideal for merchants processing large volumes of payments via a web site. Integrating our API will allow you to accept credit and debit card payments directly on your Web site.

Our API can be integrated using any programming language and platform. We supply comprehensive integration documentation in addition to live technical support.

b) Secure Payment Page

This option is ideal for merchants who want to process secure credit card payments via the Internet, without requiring a secure Web site or programming expertise.

With the Secure Payment Page, you only have to add a single HTML link to your Web site. We have a programme that generates this link for you. The link then takes your customer to a secure payment page hosted on our servers, where your customer enters payment information to complete the purchase.

The Secure Payment Page option is available in two versions: Static and Dynamic.

i) With the Static version, you generate a link for each product/price combination in advance. When your customer clicks on the link to purchase the product, the Secure Payment Page is presented to the customer showing the price that you specified in advance. This version is simple to use, and is appropriate when your site does not include shopping cart features like multiple products, quantities, shipping fees, or taxes.

ii) The Dynamic version allows you to create a customised link on your web site for each order as it is placed by your customer, regardless of the number of different products purchased. This version is ideal if your site includes shopping cart functionality.
