Shopping Cart Software

Shopping Cart software allows you to sell your products via your website and take online payments, but with recent advances in internet technology, today's Shopping Carts are complete solutions incorporating customer front-end, product management, inventory, finance and marketing tools as part of a single solution.

Web Secure recommends two state-of-the-art Shopping Cart solutions, X-Cart and EziMerchant that offer enormous power and control for a small investment and are fully integrated with our Payment Gateway for the real-time processing of credit-cards.

About the Payment Gateway

Web Secure's Payment Gateway provides a live link between your web site and a bank for real-time credit card processing. Once configured with your Online Merchant Account details (provided by your processing bank) the Payment Gateway is fully integrated with leading shopping cart software and works in the background, securely processing payments from your website, which are then deposited directly to your bank account.

The Payment Gateway can be ordered as a stand-alone service that can be used by developers looking to create a bespoke eCommerce solution and has an API which allows it to be used from any website, whether it is hosted at Web Secure or not.

Fee Free Transactions

Web Secure was the first eCommerce provider to offer 'fee free transactions'. So when a transaction is made through your website, we do not charge you a fee for it*.

Typically, our competitiors will charge you $0.50 per transaction on top of the bank processing fees, which soon adds up.

*normal bank processing charges will apply.

Acquiring an Online Merchant Account

To process online payments to your bank account, all banks require you to have an Online Merchant Account. To acquire one, you will need to apply to the bank directly, however Web Secure can help fast track this process through one of our preferred partner banks of St.George and National.

If you prefer to keep your account with a different bank you can open your Online Merchant Account with our preferred partner banks and the account can be linked to any nominated bank account, eg. Commonwealth, Westpac etc. The money is transferred at the end of each business day to your nominated account, and there are no bank fees associated with the transfer of funds.

Storage & Traffic

 

1GB web space

Web space limit

This is the amount of data (or files) that you are allowed to store on our servers with this package. Your email inboxes do not count towards this limit.

15GB data transfer per month*

Data transfer

Your data transfer limit is the sum of all inbound and outbound traffic to the web server. Each time a visitor accesses your site, or you upload files to your web server you are transferring data, all of which counts towards this limit. For a regular website with no large multimedia files, 100 MB of web traffic is equivalent to about 4,000 page views.

Email

 

200 x 100 MB POP mail accounts

POP mail accounts

POP (Post Office Protocol) is a client/server protocol in which email is received and held for you on the server. When you check your email using products like Eudora or Outlook, the mail is downloaded to your computer and the mail is deleted on the server.

Webmail

Webmail

Webmail allows you to check your email through any internet connection using a web browser.

Aliases

Email aliases

Email aliases aren't email accounts with their own mail accounts, but pointers to email accounts. For example, you can create an email alias called manager@your-domain.com and point it to john.smith@your-domain.com, which has a mailbox. Email aliases are useful when your real email account changes - you can just point your alias to the new address - or if you want to receive mail from many generic addresses.

Auto responder

Auto responder

AutoResponder will send an automatic message back to any sender, who sends you a new message with a notification of your choice.

Catchall address

Catchall email address

An email address that you designate to "catch" all incoming emails that have no valid recipient. For example, if your email address is john.smith@your-domain.com but someone sends a message to jonsmith@your-domain.com, which doesn't exist, you will still receive the email. The original sender will not receive an error that his or her email has bounced.

Anti-spam

Anti-spam

All of Web Secure’s email services come with Spam Assassin, which allows you to filter and remove spam before it hits your inbox.

Anti-virus

Anti-virus

All Web Secure email Services include enterprise grade, server-side anti-virus protection with the latest virus definitions updated hourly. We virus scan your email, before it reaches your email mailbox.
