Using CyberCash™ and
AbleCommerce Builder™

Why choose CyberCash over other real-time payment methods?

• It is inexpensive to implement, costing hundreds if not thousands less than other systems.
• Two CFX_CyberCash Tags are already available, making it easy to integrate with Cold Fusion, a flexible system for creating commerce systems.
• No additional phone lines or hardware required.
• All transactions are encrypted and sent over the Internet for authorization.
• Proven solution - CyberCash has been used on the Internet for some time now.

Installation of PERL 5.0 becomes part of the CyberCash Cash Register installation process if it's not already on your server. Once PERL is installed, the Cash Register installs with minimum fuss prompting you through the installation options. Two or three NT services are installed depending on if you are using the Credit Payment Server and/or the Coin Payment Server, along with the required Admin Server. AbleCommerce Builder does not use the coin payment server.

The administration and merchant duties surrounding the use of CyberCash are well documented in the GettingStarted-NT.PDF (requires Adobe Acrobat Reader) that is included with CyberCash's Register software and are outside the scope of this document.
