Ecommerce Processing

Grow your business – online

More and more consumers are shopping online. If you want to grow your business, you need to have an online presence. That means selling your products or services over the Internet and accepting online payments.

Higher Standards’ ecommerce solutions make it easy for you to become an online retailer. Our solutions enable you to easily create online checkout and payment pages, and to accept major credit cards, debit cards, and ACH payments safely and securely. Our online gateway and virtual terminal helps you manage all aspects of your online business – and grow your online sales.

Accept all types of online payments

Higher Standards’ ecommerce solution lets you safely and securely accept all types of online payments, including;

  • Credit cards
  • Debit cards
  • Gift cards
  • Loyalty cards
  • Personal checks
  • ACH bank transfers

All of your online transactions are PCI-compliant and secured via address verification (AVS) and fraud verification (CVN) services.

Integrate with your existing ecommerce solution – or build your own

If you already have an existing online presence, our ecommerce solutions will tie into your system. Our solution works with most third-party shopping carts and software packages. The solution is so simple and well documented that many developers integrate our services without ever contacting us.

If you’re starting from scratch, use our solutions to quickly and easily build your own HTML order pages. Create your own branded payment forms to collect necessary customer and payment information at the time of purchase. You can even store customer credit card information in your system – which makes it easy to create repeat customers.

If you need a custom shopping cart for your Internet storefront, we’ll work with you to get it built. Just click the Contact Us button on this page and tell us what you need. One of our advisors will contact you to schedule an appointment where you can discuss how to begin building your full-service ecommerce business.

Our virtual terminal makes it easy

You don’t need special equipment to process orders online. Use your existing desktop or laptop computer and our virtual terminal gateway to securely process all types of online payments. All you have to do is connect to the Internet – our gateway is cloud-based, so there’s no software to install.

Utilize mulitiple virtual terminals to enable several employees to process transactions at the same time.
