The e-CommerceTalk.com.au website seeks to do little more than provide an easy conduit connecting those who are interested in Australian e-commerce or are seeking Australian e-commerce related information, help, services and products.
e-Commerce today is very different to how it was a few years ago. Back then you could slap a cheap SSL on your website and have it start accepting credit cards without a care in the world. Not so any longer.
There are new rules and regulations in place [PCI DSS] which bring added responsibilities on to those who want to accept credit card payments online. Its not a mine field by any stretch of the imagination, but a measured approach in planning the mechanisms used to facilitate your e-commerce venture on the net, such as customer front end, payment gateway and merchant account considerations as well as security practices and policies will certainly help you avoid common pitfalls and may save you perhaps considerable unnecessary cost.
Whether you are about to get started and need some friendly advice or are a seasoned pro happy to impart some of your knowledge and experience, everyone is welcome.
We hope you find the site helpful.
Thank you
