Hello, I`m currently a reseller and I`m using Instabill for my billing. But I`m getting very tired of them declining my customer`s CCs. I`ve decided to wait for NocSoft to come out for their integrated billing software, but I know there is other things to be done before I can have a better billing solution. I would most likely need an authorize.net account, and buy it from one of their resellers. Anyone got a quality reseller they can recomend? I understand the resellers are ordinary merchant service providers who support authorize.net. But I`ve looked at acceptccards.com, and they are not giving the estimated cost of "Authorize.net and Merchant Account Setup", how much do you think this will be? I haven`t registered my reseller biz yet, and I`m wondering if getting a merchant account is possible at all without being registered (I don`t live in the US)? Thanks

In order to use authorize.net, you will have to have a US bank account...

It depened on your location. I you are from the US then I would suggest that to check out propay.com as they are free so you won't feel a strain on your pocket moving from instabill. If you are from outside the US or want realtime processing then check sfcommerce.com they don't have costs on their website but are a very good company.

ok, so authorize.net isn`t international, and I`ve got to use sfcommerce firepay. I really hope NocSoft billing will be compatible with them. Thanks for the help

you might want to look at Planet Payment if compatibility is a concern. It's virutally authorize.net only open to international merchants. You need to have a business registered though. Greg Moore
