PaymentNet this
week announced the release of a new Java-based interface for its e-commerce
payment processing service. The new transaction processing client is
available free from the PaymentNet Web site for Solaris and Windows NT
platforms.
The transaction processing client features enhanced payment performance,
security and stability. This enables businesseses that are currently
developing Java-based applications to link their back-office processing
systems to Internet store fronts.
The new implementation is especially suited for enterprise-class
applications where Java is used to interface between an Internet storefront
and back-office functions. The Java-based client was written in C++ using a
Java Native Interface (JNI).
The PaymentNet service provides the first system which enables
full-function, real-time processing of consumer checks without requiring
the generation of a paper draft to be submitted to a merchant bank. By
using TeleCheck, the service delivers real-time processing, along with
fraud screening, authorization and merchant guarantee service.
