Does WebMerchant handle the entire credit card transaction?No, it automates the process of 'talking' to MacAuthorize (or PCAuthorize or ICVerify, which run on Windows). MacAuthorize doesn't know how to 'listen' to the web for incoming orders, and WebMerchant does. WebMerchant then sends credit card authorization requests to MacAuthorize, and automates the proper responses depending on whether or not the card cleared.>4.

SSL won't let you run 2 sites with different names. On NT you can run many different SSL sites on one box, as long as you get different VeriSign certificates for each one. Your only solution *today* with Mac is to require that your vendors all use a single SSL certificate like https://mall.inno-tech.com, rather than each vendor having their own website name.>5.
