Re: Looking for AS/400 Based Credit Card Clearing Software

["Patrick Townsend" <patownsend@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Al,

ROI is the primary vendor in this arena. They are somewhere near Atlanta.

We also created some software for high volume customers who are using Visa's
VAP (Visa Access Point) solution. A VAP is an on-site PC with a scalable
frame relay connection to Visa. The VAP supports multiple client connections
at the same time and scales up very well. You can also have multiple VAPs on
site for load balancing, backup, etc. Let me know if you are interested in
this type of solution.
