Re: Verisign pfpro <payflowpro> ports?

["Karsten McMinn" <km@friendshippress.com>]

Yea, I've pretty much given up on Verisign. They're not a bad pick of you're
using
Solaris or a Linux distro as php has support in the 4.x releases
to call their pfpro client. I talked with the people over at Trust Commerce
and was definitely impressed. They are the only one that I've found that
offers a full blown php module with the IP addresses of all their
gateway servers built into it. If they lose the collocation that
is closest to our business we don't lose CC processing ability
because we'll fail over the next server in the list.

Was actually kind'of funny because I was trying to find out
bgp announcement info on their supernets to see if they had
alternate routes into their network for redundancy,
but it totally irrelevant because they set up their php
module the way they did.

Unfortunately I'm stuck with having to use authorize.net as my
timeframe ends this weekend and Trust Commerce doesn't process
over FDC Nashville networks (where our merchant act resides),
but I plan on switching to them in the future.

Thanks again for the reference.

I don't know how attached you are to PayFlowPro, but what I use for online
credit card processing is an API put out by Trust Commerce
(www.trustcommerce.com).

I -believe- their newest API compiles on OpenBSD, and if not you could
probably
call them up and ask for tips on how to compile it. I have 2 PHP sites on
OpenBSD that use the PHP API and have -no- complaints. Trust Commerce is a
really nice group of people with some really cool names. Highly recommend
them.
