eCommerce Development

eCommerce has exploded across the business world like few other technological developments in history.

With eCommerce you can accept credit card payments, have a catalogue of your products available online, process orders automatically, increase the visibility of your brand, track shipments, market your company to the far reaches of the world wide web, and keep it all updated without needing any computer training at all. Your product is available to the consumer 24/7, 365 days a year, reaching a potential customer base of millions- that's what ecommerce means to your business.

From a downloadable product catalogue to a virtual store, complete with sale announcements, newsletters, instant credit card processing, bulletproof shopping cart software, and custom-created back-end administration tools that are a breeze to use - AlphaDog can make your ecommerce business a reality, or take an existing online business and fine-tune it so that your expectations meet demand.

Merchant Accounts

Opening your very own merchant account offers a wide variety of benefits. All of them contribute to your income and profits.

1. It's Easy

Accepting credit card orders online is convenient for customers, and is the way they prefer to do business. Period.

2. It Builds Trust

Having a merchant account also gives customers a sense of confidence in you as a seller. Due to the fact that you are authorized to take credit card payments, customers automatically trust that you are an honest business, and are more willing to place an order.

3. You Get Paid Faster

Credit card transactions are deposited into your bank account within 24-48 hours – much faster than the time that it takes to receive checks in the mail and then wait for them to clear.

4. You Save Time

You'll have secure, real-time credit card processing that allows you to authorize, settle, refund, and manage credit card transactions online.

5. You Save on Bank Fees

Stores that accept credit cards reduce or eliminate the volume of bad checks returned for "non-sufficient funds" (NSF) and the associated bank fees, penalties, and collections costs.

6. You Make More Money

As stated earlier, more customers will buy from you when you take credit cards – as many as 10 times more. But, they also make larger purchases. Data indicates that credit card purchases are, on average, about 20% larger than non-card purchases. By using a credit card, customers often make additional impulse, upgrade, or extra purchases that they might not otherwise have made.

7. You Create a Professional Image

By accepting credit cards, your check-out process is more seamless, and appears to be processed directly on your website. You look legitimate, honest, and professional.


In summary, obtaining your own merchant account is, literally, money in the bank for you. Although you may hear some merchants complaining about fees they pay on card transactions – they are actually making much more money and many more sales because they accept credit cards.
