Hi, I'm new to ecommerce and I have a question on how to get started. I need to accept payments online through credit card, but the thing about that is I need to be able to view the credit card info to actually pay for the products through a wholesale/distributors page and collect my retail percantage. Can this be achieved if so it would be greatly appreciated if someone would explain how. I've checked out sites like [edit] TOS #13 [webmasterworld.com] [/edit]

Sounds dodgey to me you can't use someone else's card to buy stuff.

This just might be illegal and put you into trouble. It also opens you up to potential fraud charges and being sued by your customers over privacy issues.

You could accept the funds yourself into your business's bank account, have a card attached to that account, then use that card (YOUR business card) to make your online purchase with your supplier.

Or talk to your supplier about automating the process, with your reseller information attached to the order so that you can get your credit.

thanks for everyones input. I found the best way to do it is what you suggested attach a card to my business account and then pay my supplier.
