We will ask you to complete preparation tasks before we setup and configure PRONTO-Xi Avenue. The 4 main preparation tasks are:
Multiple freight methods can be created to incorporate delivery post codes, order values and product metrics (weight, volume, cubic conversion). The freight calculator can also take on an international mode when country codes are added to the matrix.
PRONTO-Xi Avenue comes with a standard skin that can be used out of the box. We also provide affordable professional web design services if you wanted to make your website standout from the competition.
While we have a professional in-house web designer, you can have your own designer create concepts (in Photoshop format) of the web site. Designs for the home page, shopping cart, product pages, search results etc can be submitted to the Avenue design team who can implement the design by deconstructing and coding it into the CMS to create your custom template utilising dynamic ERP data where applicable.

PRONTO-Xi Avenue can accept secure credit card payments for purchases made online or you can allow your account customers to pay later upon invoice.
You will need to setup an account with one of the supported payment gateway providers. You will also need to setup merchant facilities with your existing bank. There is a fee involved for both service providers. Often a merchant account and a payment gateway can be setup together through the same company.
A payment gateway is a service provider that authorises credit card payments and processes them securely with a user's merchant account. PRONTO-Xi Avenue supports integration with either Securepay (most popular choice), eWay, NAB (National Australia Bank) or Payment Express (supports NZ and Pacific Island online stores). All payment gateways charge a fee, generally per transaction. PRONTO-Xi Avenue utilises the direct XML post method of integration and therefore stores no sensitive data.
Every payment made with a credit card involves the transfer of funds to a merchant account held by the merchant directly with a bank. All payment gateways will require you to have a merchant account. Merchant account / facility fees charged by the bank vary.
Yes, credit card payment facilities in PRONTO-Xi Avenue are optional so orders can still be processed as they currently are.
