However ShopFactory can also allow you to receive the payment details of your customers over the Internet - much like a mail order house which receives these details over the telephone. In this situation ShopFactory will - with the free SSL service - accept orders in a totally secure environment. The orders will then be securely (PGP) emailed to you for processing via your computer modem with transaction software such as PCAuthorize or MacAuthorize.

To use PGP with ShopFactory's free SSL service, open the company details wizard ( button with blue circle with the white i in it). Select the payment system Free SSL with PGP.
