shopping cart question

[jvalerie]

Does anyone here know of a shopping cart software that will send an encrypted email instead of sending info to a service like paypal or verisign? Thanks!!

Please be aware it is not the transmission of the payment information that should be your primary concern it is the collection of that information. The credit card companies have rules about collecting the information and primarily the form that you use to collect that info has to be on a secure server.

If you wish to follow this route you must have a secure server to collect the info and then it is easiest if the recipient gets an unencrypted email notice that they have recieved an order. Then that person goes to the secure server to pick up the order and payment info.

My recommendation is OSCommerce www.oscommerce.com

Best of luck
