Online Payment Security

You can shop at EzyGolf with confidence. We have partnered with Authorize.Net, a leading payment gateway since 1996, to offer safe and secure credit card and electronic check transactions for our customers.

The Authorize.Net Payment Gateway manages the complex routing of sensitive customer information through the credit card and electronic check processing networks (see an online payments diagram). The company adheres to strict industry standards for payment processing, including:

  • 128-bit Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology for secure Internet Protocol (IP) transactions.
  • Industry leading encryption hardware and software methods and security protocols to protect customer information.
  • Compliance with the Payment Card Industry (PCI) Data Security Standard.

Below is a detailed breakdown of your secure payment process.

  • The merchant submits a credit card transaction to the Authorize.Net Payment Gateway on behalf of a customer via secure connection from a Web site, at retail, from a MOTO center or a wireless device.
  • Authorize.Net receives the secure transaction information and passes it via a secure connection to the Merchant Bank’s Processor.
  • The Merchant Bank’s Processor submits the transaction to the Credit Card Interchange (a network of financial entities that communicate to manage the processing, clearing, and settlement of credit card transactions).
  • The Credit Card Interchange routes the transaction to the customer’s Credit Card Issuer.
  • The Credit Card Issuer approves or declines the transaction based on the customer’s available funds and passes the transaction results, and if approved, the appropriate funds, back through the Credit Card Interchange.
  • The Credit Card Interchange relays the transaction results to the Merchant Bank’s Processor.
  • The Merchant Bank’s Processor relays the transaction results to Authorize.Net.
  • Authorize.Net stores the transaction results and sends them to the customer and/or the merchant. This communication process averages three seconds or less!
  • The Credit Card Interchange passes the appropriate funds for the transaction to the Merchant’s Bank, which then deposits funds into the merchant’s bank account.
