There are two basic parts
of a shopping cart: (1) the series of webpages that you build
with FrontPage to promote your products and allow customers
to purchase them and (2) the shopping cart processing service
that handles the financial transactions, security, and sales
tracking (provided by Pageville).
Shopping cart software (Pageville Plugin for FrontPage)
makes it easy to turn a simple web site that displays merchandise
into an online store. All you need is an "BUY"
button for each item you sell, and a "Checkout"
button to complete the sale and accept payment. The Pageville
Shopping Cart has already programmed these functions for
you - all you need to do is enter the details about your
merchandise.
You can try out all of the functions of the Pageville Shopping
Cart Service except real payment processing. When you are
ready to make your shopping cart "live" on the
web (ie: retrieve customers' payment information and customize
with Pageville's tools) you simply need to purchase Pageville's
Shopping Cart Service (see below).
