Transaction Management


Anyone that has tried to implement a system to process credit cards will know that the world of electronic payments processing is a multi-layered maze of options and price discrepancies.

 As the market matures a new era is starting to demystify the process. A few large companies are providing all the layers under one banner - key examples are Braintree and Stripe.

  What’s Going On?      As more and more companies and store owners switch from paper to online payments, fraudulent activities become more and more complex and harder to track. What is Card Testing and How Does it Work? Known through multiple terms like “carding”, “account testing”, and “card checking”, card testing is becoming one of the main avenues for hackers to steal from both the consumer and the merchant. Card testing is when someone tries to use stolen card information or attempts to guess card information in order to make fraudulent purchases from another card. Hackers use computer programs to streamline this process so it becomes easier to “guess” card information.
