Benefits
Easy to Implement
- EC-Linx offers several versions of Web-service interfaces – all secured by SSL/TLS – to exchange transaction data between your computers and 3DSI's payment gateway
- 3DSI's integration specification clearly explains how to submit your transaction data in the required format
- 3DSI's technical staff will work with you to ensure a quick and smooth implementation
Offers Enhanced Security Options
- Secure SSL/TLS encrypted connections are used
- Transactions are only accepted from registered IP addresses
- Since card data security is a major concern for businesses today, 3DSI developed CardVault, an innovative data tokenization and card data storage service that removes the risk of storing information on internal systems
File-Based Settlement Option
- Companies can capture or settle previously authorized card payments via a batch file at the end of the day or after products are shipped from their warehouse or fulfillment service
- 3DSI offers EC-Batch for customers who prefer to send settlements via a file
- Both settlement and confirmation files are encrypted and exchanged via FTP, FTPS or SFTP
- EC-Linx and EC-Batch can be mixed and matched to meet the unique needs of your business
Ensures Compatibility
- Since the payment processing system is hosted at 3DSI's secure data centers and not on your computers, EC-Linx can be integrated with enterprise accounting and back-office solutions, such as SAP®, JD Edwards®, Oracle®, Microsoft® and more
- Enterprise IT managers do not have to worry about system updates and future compatibility
Supports Both B2B and Consumer Applications
- EC-Linx is not limited to busines-to-business (B2B) applications, but can be integrated into your company's shopping carts, point-of- sale (POS) systems, order entry systems and enterprise resource planning systems (ERP)
- EC-Linx uses standard industry interfaces which allows it to work with many platforms and operating systems, including UNIX®, IBM® AS/400, "LAMP" and others
