The Commerce Edition is our lowest priced version of e-Classifieds that contains support for real-time credit card processing that is completely seamless and automated. Your visitors will never have to leave your site in order to make a credit card payment. With the built-in features for electronic commerce, it's the ideal choice for newspapers, TV stations, corporations, and others seeking the very best classifieds program available. It is the only classifieds program on the market that supports real-time credit card processing through Authorize.Net, E-Commerce Exchange, and ATS Bank. If you choose to process credit card payments manually, the Commerce Edition can check the credit card information entered by the user to make sure that the number entered is in a valid format for that particular type of credit card, and it can also optionally compare this number against a list of stolen credit card numbers or numbers that should be rejected for some reason if you have such a list. The Commerce Edition contains many other options for fee-based classifieds, such as the ability to charge just for posting ads, just for renewing ads, just for viewing ads in the full-size format only, just for viewing ads in either full-size or headlines format, just for replying to ads, just for uploading multimedia files, just for subscribing to the Auto-Notify feature, just for adding maps to ads in the Housing section, or any combination of the above. It can even require all users to register before accessing any part of the classifieds and, optionally, to pay to register. It also includes Auto-Notify, which is a database-enabled personal search agent that allows your users to specify discrete price ranges or other features and have only those ads matching these criteria sent to them periodically. The program also features a checklist feature that allows users to "mark" certain ads for future viewing (the digital equivalent of circling ads in the newspaper). The Commerce Edition contains a two-way, fully secure private messaging system that is ideal for personals sites, as well as the ability to allow users to upload photos, sound clips, and/or video clips to their ads. It can even let you set up "affiliate" web sites that participate in your classifieds section.
