IF Yes, then how is it done?Yes, you can process them with no human intervention -- that's the whole purpose of our products.1) You make an arrangement with a credit card bank network (we chose CardService International) and get your own merchant account. FDR is the actual network that our computer calls to verify credit cards. We sell these types of accounts if you don't already have one.2) You buy MacAuthorize and type in your merchant account# and phone numbers for clearing cards.3) You set up a web site using WebCatalog and WebMerchant. WebCatalog interacts with the customer, keeping track of what they want to buy. When they type their credit card# and click the Purchase button, WebCatalog writes a special file to disk that WebMerchant picks up and uses to 'talk' to MacAuthorize. WebMerchant waits for MacAuthorize to finish dialing the bank network and, depending on whether the card was good or not, it sends out emails to you and your customers.4) A couple days later, the money from the customer's credit card appears in your bank account.>And WHO does the approval process not which software.I don't understand this question; if you're saying you want it done with no human intervention, then there's no such person as WHO. The only way I can answer is by telling you what software does it. Unless you mean what bank network, and in that case you should talk to robynw@smithmicro.com and she can sell you the merchant account. She won't be back until after Christmas, so if this is an emergency you can talk to jayv2@smithmicro.com instead.><> What's the URL Please?http://www.smithmicro.com/ on the left side of the page are all the links, including a Success Stories linkGrant Hulbert, V.P.
