About This Session
So you've build your app, website, widget. Now you need a payment system to monetize. Great!
Fortunately Online Payments have a come a long way in the past 5 years. Online Credit Card acceptance would take weeks to implement, today it can be done in hours. Also there are more choices. But questions still persist: What are pros and cons of different payment systems vis-a-vis processing costs, ease of integration, chargebacks etc. Should I use an existing option or roll something of my own. Alternatives to Credit Cards. What about Marketplaces, Mobile APIs. International payment options ?
I will spend first part of the session on the business aspects of payments and and second part will delve into the various APIs available from different commercial vendors. Time permitting I may show an actual API implementation from one or two popular vendors
