transaction to verify that a card is active and within the
approved spending limit:
- Brick-and-mortar and retail or restaurant
environments swipe the card or key in the number through a
point-of-sale terminal (i.e., card is physically present). We work with multiple verifone suppliers for cheap and discounted credit card terminals.
- Mail order/telephone order environments enter the card
identifiers the customer has provided you by mail, telephone
or fax (i.e., the card is not present).
- Internet environment Customer provides your Web site
with card identifiers (i.e., card is not present).
Step 2Real-time
authorizing, which reduces chargebacks and catches card-entry
errors:
- Credit card number is entered.
- Terminal or software transmits the credit card number
and expiration date and sales total to GPC
International.
- GPC International transmits data to customers
credit card-issuing bank.
- Customers issuing bank approves or declines the
transaction.
Step 3Completing the
transaction:
- Merchants terminal or software transmits transaction
details to GPC International in a batch at close of
the herbal supplements or online pharmacy business day.
- GPC International forwards transactions to each
credit card company, which redirects the transactions to
appropriate banks.
- Bank debits credit cardholders account and credits
GPC International.

funds:

usually within two to four herbal supplements or online pharmacy business days.
