Been a client now for six months. Had a few integration hiccups but after a few weeks they got it resolved. There was a billing dispute but after they fixed it they gave me a credit and put me on net terms. Couldn’t be happier with the service preCharge has here.

They don’t require that I submit all orders. It seems as every contract is different. I’ve been with preCharge for years and loving it. I would say talk to someone else.

I have a custom shopping cart and use authorize.net as my payment gateway. Technically I did not do the itegration, my programmer did, but it took him a few hours.

I referred a friend of mine to them and he either chose not to integrate or couldn’t. Regardless, he manually inputs his orders through preCharge’s website. He only sends them shipping/billing mismatches as he doesn’t ship internationally.

Things must have changed since you last spoke to them as I understand they only require you send them all of your international business but you can pick and choose domestic.

@Tony
Did you get PreCharge integrated with Magento or a different ecommerce platform? How difficult would you say the integration was to complete?

My main complaint with PreCharge is they want to verify EVERY transaction transmitted to them. Unless I come up with a solution to *submit* only the orders we deem need for review by PreCharge then I can’t use their service.
PreCharge would be a backup to the Maxmind solution when an order receives a high risk score.

MaxMind is ok but at the end of the day it’s simply software that gives a fraud score. When I was looking for a fraud prevention solution for my website I signed up with PreCharge.com

I integrated their software with my shopping cart and payment gateway. When a custoomer places an order on my site it gets sent to them, they manually review and approve or decline. If they approve an order that results in fraud they reimburse you for the full ticket price including shipping and the merchant chargeback fee.

I was only shipping to billing adresses but since I started with them I’m shipping to non billing adresses and internationally. It’s cost effective and the best part of their service is that I don’t have to review any of the orders. They approve I ship out. Wish I would have found out about them sooner but it’s been a year so far, they’ve saved me a ton of money and I couldn’t imagine doing business without them.

Put me in line for this. Do you guys have somewhere I can go to buy it or get on the waiting list?

Thanks

We have finalised our Magento Maxmind module now. We will be offering it for sale within 2 weeks, we haven’t finalised a price yet.

One of the Maxmind staff said it was the best integration with an eCommerce platform that they had seen so far, so that is encouraging feedback!

I will post in my blog when it is available, and we should have it on Magento Connect as well.

Cheers
