I tried to buy something from Vitacost, and they shipped me the wrong thing. Now I must pay the shipping to return it, even though it was their error. Please tell me where online I can warn people to not shop with such thieves.

What seals can I use on my ecommerce website to enhance credibility?   3 comments

Canaan Phoenix asked:


I’m creating a website to sell information. I will put a PayPal Verified seal in there, but I want even more seals to increase credibility. At this point of my business, I’m not excepting any orders online, I’m only accepting order requests via email form. Therefore, I don’t have SSL, so I can’t use VeriSign or Thawte. Is there anything else that I can use to enhance credibility?

Thanks,

Caitlin

I am looking for a merchant service/payment gateway for my business website.
The cheapest I have found is $99 upfront, 20 per month for the service, 10 extra for recurring billing per month and 5 extra per month for an alert if a pperson tries to use different cards (fraud)

I am looking for the safest but cheapest so please help
per transaction charges are 25 cents Visa/Mastercard
Paypals rates are higher

Anayden asked:


I am opening an ecommerce store, but I want to know if and where you can get your business license and if you need it. How do you apply for a sales tax number? What does getting your business registered means and is that required? I live in the state of Virginia. Is there a site online to do all of this?
