How to embed merchant account in a website

Re: How to embed merchant account in a website

I'm assuming you have a merchant account, or access to one of many services now available from around the world e.g. PayPal.

If using a off the shelf cart software it is likely to have been built using a modular approach. You can typically install (or activate) modules for different merchants. Leaving you to just configure i.e. your PayPal account, currency, conformations and then give it a through test. Lets say your cart does not support a particular merchant, or you are using custom software. Merchants will make use of an API. Some can be fairly simple to develop for, at the end you basically post the details of an order associated with that session.
