Each plan includes AIT's proprietary shopping cart plus a
merchant account and gateway, and a billing solution.
Merchants can access sales data from any browser, transactions
are automatically settled every day, and there are no software
upgrades. In addition, the most recent release of AIT's Mcart
shopping cart software, making the entire online buying
process – from product presentation to order fulfillment –
more personalized for the buyer and more intuitive for the
merchant.
The digital economy gives customers the convenience of
never having to wait in line and the ability to shop at
businesses that are out of their geographic reach. Merchants
realize the benefit of a global presence and round the clock
sales without the overhead of additional staff.
Online retail also has a peripheral impact on offline sales
as customers often research purchases on the Internet before
buying in stores. For about the price of good dinner, any
brick storefront can have an online component. AIT can get you
started.
