What really sets Shopdaddy apart from other ecommerce solutions is the truly open and flexible design that allows you to have the solution that exactly matches your requirements.

Overview

• The shopping cart consists of just two (2) files which are copied to your website directory. In addition, there are a few small graphics and documentation pages.
• The Shopdaddy order gateway uses a secure connection to accept customer and payment information which is encrypted.
• The email notification contains a link to the secure decryption screen where you provide a password to obtain the credit card data.
• Payment processing is done at your place of business the same way as for customers in your shop or telephone orders!

The Shopping Cart

The full content for each item or service is contained on a single link.

You choose whether your customer can order only one or many of any given item. This is perfect when selling one-of-kind items!

The order summary page contains item descriptions which are links back to the page on which the item was selected.

Order Gateway

The order gateway can be used for sales of anything from anywhere. It is used to accept customer information at the conclusion of a shopping cart purchase but can also be used for any invoice for sales of anything.

As a "stand-alone" process, the gateway is often used to accept ALL order and personal data -- as for eBay sales! This means that you can accept payment for anything from anywhere and it does not have to be for items in your shopping cart.

Order and sales volumes are unlimited with no commissions!
Again, it's stand-alone, fast, and easy.

Credit Card Accept

• Only the cards you accept will be displayed!
• Credit data is accepted through a secure SSL connection and is encrypted with your unique encryption key using the very best "industry standard" algorithms.
• You receive an email containing a link back to a secure decryption screen where you use the unique key to decrypt the credit data.

Advantages of this method

• No software to install on your business computer.
• Credit data is not stored on the server so your customers are not at risk.
• You may "re-construct" credit data from any computer using your unique encryption key.
• The unique encryption key can be changed securely, easily, at any time from anywhere. No tricky or time-consuming process of sending and receiving machines agreeing on the key.
