The gateway connects your website to the merchant account. It also provides a Virtual Terminal for manual order entry. Merchant accounts do NOT work without a gateway. Gateway providers include Verisign, Authorize.net, and Plugnpay.com. We are Registered Resellers for Authorize.net, Linkpoint, and Plugnpay.com. Unless otherwise requested, your account will be setup with Authorize.net.
