An online merchant account is essentially a merchant account designed for ecommerce websites that enables a merchant to accept credit card payments on online.
As well as having an online merchant account, a merchant will also require a payment gateway which will act as an interface between their website and their merchant account.
A Nochex Merchant Account is a different kind of merchant account in that it combines the features of both an online merchant account and payment gateway rolled into one - giving you a more affordable and easier to manage online payment solution.
