Web Site Shopping Cart

Fundamentally, the Web Site Shopping Cart works by keeping track of what your customers order purchase, until they are ready to complete the order or "check out." At that point, the cart collects buyer’s name, billing address, phone and collects their credit card information (unless you are doing real-time credit card authorization, then the cart "hands the customers off" to a form merchant account site and waits to hear back), then generates a receipt for the customers and sends you information to fulfill the order.

• When customers get their credit card bills they see "the on-line payment service provider" as the merchant, not your company, causing a couple of people to charge back their orders and you will lose money
