Posted: Tue Jul 14, 2009 8:03 pm
hi,
I want to make a small website which can allow users to open account, to shop, and to pay online...
can i know the process or idea when it comes to the credit/ debit card validation and verification...? I came across this keywords over internet - merchant account and Luhn formula - what are they for actually and how to make them...?
In other words, how to do o the credit/ debit card validation and verification which i can protect myself as a seller from fraud and to protect my customers if they provide their card numbers.
what is SSL??
Any reliable books or online tutorials/ references i can count on?
Many thanks,
Lau
