Yes but the infrastructure is important on how all this is handled, I worked for a comapny that channeled its cc payments to an internal oracle server which there passed the data to the cc service. The cc data was routed through webserver to the internal network, to the app, to the oracle server. all over an encrypted channel. From there it was processed and payment made/recieved. This is the only place oracle existed on the network, the site was driven by mysql clusters. The reason for choosing oracle was transaction support, they were using mysql 4.x. This was in 2004/05. This is also a large company with lots of resources. Note, the oracle server was well defended and locked down. You would want to store everything encrypted and have only trusted folks in charge of it. Data security companies have had breeches in security, most these being caused by the employees of the data center. This is just the tip of the iceburg so to speak. It's just easier to use a gateway service. this recent thread has good information on them with django: http://groups.google.com/group/django- users/browse_frm/thread/45794a54c2e3f466/16288a41d7e628ce?hl=en&lnk=gst&q=Payment+Gateway Mike -- "A great many people think they are thinking when they are merely rearranging their prejudices." -- William James -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
