The online payment gateway is in the middle between merchant banks and shopping carts to process credit card transactions. The most frequently used gateways in osCommerce include [login to view URL], PSiGate, iPayment, and SECPay, etc. My merchant bank service provider allows me to use my own merchant gateway to replace [login to view URL] if my own gateway can get approved by Firstdata -[login to view URL] .
To lower the transaction cost, I need a custom payment gateway for myself and also for my customers' usage. In another word, I want to build a similar payment gateway system similar to [login to view URL] and iPayment, etc. so will be able to use it for translations. It can be a basic gateway system, instead of a fancy one like [login to view URL], as long as it could get approved by Firstdata.
Be honest, I am not sure how a payment gateway works myself although I am a five year user of [login to view URL] gateway and five year reseller of three major merchant account banks in USA. To be qualified for this project, you should understand of how a gateway works and how it connects to merchant account bank first. Hopefully, you have a real experience in gateway programming before. As usual, we ask you to show real understanding of the project and provide similar projects you have done to prove you do have experience.
If my asking price is lower than what you think, just give me an offer. However, you have to remember that should the cost be very high, I would prefer to keep using Authorize.Net. So let's make a deal by finding out a balance point of price.

Dear Coders,
Thanks for your bid and/or messages.
This is a correction to my bid request...
That company name is NOT Info data but FirstData: [login to view URL] .
Check the above URL, and you may know if you could do the project or not.
Warm regards,
Nicebuy

Dear Coders,
Thanks for biding on this project.
I see there are some confusings. Please note, I am not looking for shopping cart solutions at all, but the transaction gateway solution. I want a position to become [login to view URL], iPayment, and 2checkout, etc.
If you still think you could make a system working as [login to view URL] or any other online processing gateway, please reply and we will further discuss the possibility.
I understand of that this is NOT an easy job which demands real experience. So I am willing to pay you higher fees to complete such a task.
Warm regards,
Nicebuy

Dear Coders,
Thanks for your bid.
Please note, this project is NOT a regular ecommerce or shopping cart implementation using [login to view URL], but we want to build our own gateway with similar functions as [login to view URL] and others.
If you do know how to build a gateway, instead of integrating a gateway, please reply this message giving me details about how you are going to build a payment gateway for me.
Warm regards,
Nicebuy
