New Online Payments by SecureTrading...

We have long been a partner of SecureTrading and we are now pleased to announce that SecureTrading has become our preferred system for accepting credit card payments securely online.

We now accept the following cards:
American Express Visa/Delta Visa Visa Electron Maestro Mastercard Solo
Verified by Visa Learn More Safe payments by SecureTrading Mastercard SecureCode Learn More

SecureTrading provides an Internet gateway to enable the secure processing of credit cards online. You need to have an existing Internet Merchant Account and this solution then provides seamless routing of transactions to your Acquiring Bank. (Your Acquiring Bank is the organisation with whom you have an Internet Merchant Account.) Settlement takes place between the Acquiring Bank and your company.

If you do not already have an Internet Merchant Account then SecureTrading can provide one as part of an integrated package.

We can integrate the SecureTrading gateway with your website and online store. In particular we can provide solutions to work with Actinic Catalog.

Actinic Version 9 Upgrades...

We completed the upgrade of our eCommerce site to the latest Version 9 of Actinic Business Plus at the beginning of August, and we have been running trouble free now for six weeks.

The upgrade was relatively straightforward, although the automatic upgrader didn't quite get everything right and so it was necessary to intervene to correct some of the layouts before going live. However, all considered, the upgrade went more smoothly than previous major version upgrades and Actinic are to be congratulated on the progress they continue to make in this area. The new facilities for handling Google Analytics are also most welcome.

For help with upgrading your eCommerce systems, please contact us.

Actinic is the premiere eCommerce package designed for small and medium sized businesses in the UK. It is highly customisable and includes an unparalleled number of facilities and options, making it the most flexible system that we have come across at an affordable price, more details

We are an Accredited Actinic Web Designer and we have extensive experience of developing and enhancing eCommerce websites based upon the Actinic packages.
