Citadel
Commerce is a form of alternative payment methods that is being
accepted by more and more online merchants. The Citadel Commerce
Corporation is a privately owned company that has been incorporated
in Canada. They have offices in various areas of Canada including
their main offices in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. The
company was created with the main purposes of detecting e-commerce
fraud and providing payment processing services. They have one
of the most technologically advanced , safe and secure payment
processing systems that are available today.
Citadel Commerce’s payment system allows merchants’
customers to “write” (electronically) a personal check
from any bank account that is based in a bank located in the United
States or Canada. The checks are then electronically submitted
into the Federal ACH Banking Network to be processed and posted.
It is quick and simple for customers to sign up for one of Citadel
Commerce’s safe and secure accounts right from the Citadel
website. All that needs to be done is for the customer to provide
identification information as well as any pertinent bank information.
One major point that should be known is that customers can only
use the service at the computer that they signed up for Citadel
from.
The convenient services provided by Citadel gives online merchants
the ability to authorize, process and manage electronic check
transactions from any computer that has access to the internet
and a web browser. These Electronic Internet Checks give merchants
the ability to accept and process electronic check payments from
their very own website for a nominal (compared to other e-processing
companies) fee and without the restrictions imposed by credit
card companies. For the ever-growing number of consumers in both
the United States and Canada who wither do not have or do not
feel comfortable using credit cards on the internet, Citadel Commerce
Electronic Internet Checks provides an easy to use payment method
that doesn’t cause the hassle that credit cards can. Citadel
Commerce’s encryption software takes care of both encrypting
all data and sending it to Citadel’s secure server for posting.
Their database automatically checks all RTN (Routing Numbers)
for accuracy, and if for any reason, the information isn’t
correct, the consumer is asked to fill out this information again
so that the correct information is gathered. When this part of
the process is done, the merchant will be notified of the transaction
request and the consumer is sent the notice of approval for their
purchase (which can be printed and used as a receipt). If the
consumer’s account (for any reason) has insufficient funds,
the merchant that the purchase is being made from will be automatically
notified immediately and the electronic check recovery system
begins the collection process, at no additional cost to the merchant.
These transactions are usually completely settled within about
72 hours.
Citadel Commerce Corporation allows consumers to by online casino
credits (chips) with the benefit of having those credits instantly
credited to their casino account. Also, if the account is properly
authorized, consumers can purchase up to $1,500 in casino credits
every 7 days.
