WEB Settlements Service

About the WEB Settlements Service


The MAXCONNECT Credit Settlement Service, is a settlement service we consider to be good in its ability to increases sales.
Our company will take care of you with our quick review, easy introduction, and cheap prices.
We often see settlement/payment services striving for high security and functionality, by doing so they impair their users.
At MAXCONNECT this is not the case, we are able to do both while providing ease of use to our users.
Our staff are constantly thinking of ways to increase the sales of Merchants through our card settlement service.

We provide a service that improves sales for both Individual and Corporate businesses.


At Maxconnect, we ask merchants planning to introduce credit card payment the following questions, and we make proposals while talking with them. The following is examples.

・Regarding one-time billing and recurring billing.

Is it a one-time product or service provision sale, or is it a membership fee payment?
There are methods such as batch processing once a month for payment pf membership fees, and we would like to proceed while talking about what is important to merchant.

・User target area and product characteristics.

If you are a shop that purchases products online and ships them, you can use our payment service to enter the shipping address information at the time of payment and inform the merchant.
In addition, in the case of data sales, it is possible to reduce the effort by omitting many items in order to save the effort of the end user.

・Regarding the design of the payment screen.

We will make various proposals before the introduction so that merchants and customers can make payments comfortably, such as how to prevent customers from making mistakes repeatedly and how to modify the design of the payment screen.

About our WEB settlement


About the connection methods of WEB settlements (Internet settlement · PC settlement) these are broadly divided into three distinct methods.
HTML-link / GATEWAY/ CSV batch settlements.
For HTML-link and GATEWAY methods you can use the automatic continued billing system.

HTML Link Method


The HTML Link settlement service, is the service through which customers are able to make a payment through a payment page provided by MAXCONNECT.

We recommend merchants use HTML Link settlements rather than Gateway settlements. The main reasons are better security, multi-lingual support, template customization, etc.

When a customer is making a payment from the merchant’s website, they will be linked to our settlement page. At our settlement page, they will enter the required payment information. Immediately after the settlement has been approved or denied, auto-confirmation emails will be sent to customers and merchants.

Some merchants might find it difficult to confirm whether transactions have succeeded or failed. However, with MAXCONNECT’s Easy-to-use Real Time Admin Information, we can help you track and trace every real time transaction at anytime. Allowing you to send the goods or provide the services to your customers for those successful settlements.

For the HTML Link settlement service we will send the login ID, password, and settlement page to the merchant; once the application process has been completed. Through the link, you will be able to display our settlement page to your customers.

With even a small amount of HTML knowledge, it is possible to use our HTML Link formula easily. Please be assured that the input of any card information will be protected, the payment system is compliant with PCI DSS security.

There is no need for the site to hold card information. Also, when connecting with an HTML Link, there is no need for special software or equipment, our service also provides encrypted communication using VeriSign’s SSL technology. These factors make this method one of the most cost efficient credit settlements. We at MAXCONNECT are working hard everyday to improve our security in all aspects for this service.

MAXCONNECT WEB Link Settlement Service Standard Functions


With MAXCONNECT’s WEB Link Settlement Service the following functions are available as standard.

Quick Charge


The Quick Charge function allows customers who have already entered their credit card information once, to skip this step in the future, and make payments faster. This will attract and motivate new customers to become repeat customers.

The Quick Charge function provides not only swift payment service, it also improves convenience when customers want access to details such as the customer’s address, telephone number, card information, and other troublesome inputs.

For sites such as shopping and merchandising sites that use a point system or useage fees, where repeat purchases are the norm, the Quick Charge function improves profitability and convenience.

Credit Settlement Page Customization


Up until now, other company’s have been able to provide an HTML Link type connection service, but not many are able to provide a customizable payment page.

At MAXCONNECT, sites can personalize the payment page with the ability to change the image and insert their own logo, doing this creates a sense of unity with the site and our service. Althought at first this seems trivial when it comes to credit card transactions, we believe that while providing a secure service is important, a pleasing experience for the consumer is also essential.

HTML-Link Payment Screen Example


Multilingual


Recently, one of the most important functions for card payment systems is multilingual payment screen capabilities. This is an absolutely necessary function while the sale of products and expansion of service areas are rapidly spreading.

We also want to provide our service to companies and individuals who are offering merchandise to Japan from overseas, and to those that operate overseas exclusivley.

Smartphone Settlement


スマートフォン決済対応

Our payment screen is also compatible with smartphones. In recent years, it has been reported that nearly half of all sales from websites have been mobile, especially smartphones.

User accessability and useabilty were a focal point, we wanted to offer a payment screen that was not hampered by screen size or difficult information input.

We firmly believe that simply having good visual appeal are not essential at all. MAXCONNECT thinks about the importance of easy settlements for customers.

Recurring Settlement


Setting the Charge Frequency

There are two methods for our credit settlement continuous billing.
The first method, is to charge the first settlement amount continuously, on the same day each month.
For example: If the first settlement was $100 on the 20th of the month, subsequent months will process settlements on the 20th for $100.
The second method, is for changing the settlement amount for the first month and subsequent months.
For example: The first settlement was $50 on the 20th, however, subsequent months will process settlements for $100 on the 20th.

Billing Date Designation Function

It is possible to freely select the fully automatic continuous charging period freely, such as day (1 to 365 days), monthly, day of week, etc.

Retry Function

There is also the option to retry a settlement again the next day, if your automatic recurring billing was not passed by the credit card company.

Other functions


ID/PW automatic issuing system

This is a function that can be used on information distribution and music download sites. Through this system we are able to issue our customers login ID/PW, instead of the customer having to create their own profiles. With this, it is possible to reduce the time and effort of wanting to make purchases, and instead engage directly in safe and secure shopping.
Also, we are able to provide more direct and precise customer support, when users call to our center with their ID/PW available.

The Features of One-Time Password (OTP) send over SMS (SMS OTP Features)

SMS one-time password is a service that sends a one-time password to the user’s mobile phone by SMS and authenticates the user using the one-time password.
By using a highly unique mobile phone number linked to the user, the accuracy of identity verification is improved and helping mitigate the risk of fraudulent payments.
Thus, merchants could safely introduce credit card payment service.

3D Secure System

3D Secure (Personal Authentication Settlement Service) is a generic term for personal authentication services provided by JCB, VISA, MasterCard. When making a settlement with a credit card, a screen for entering a preset password is displayed, and authentication (identity authentication) is performed based on the password. If no password is entered or the password entered is incorrect, no settlement will be made. For this reason, illegal use damage by the theft card or counterfeit card is suppressed. With this security in place, illegal use by card theft or conterfeit cards are not possible.

GATEWAY method


Through our gateway system, payment processing is performed through the MAXCONNECT’s settlement server while using the merchants’ settlement screens.

Since it is possible to create your own credit settlement page, rather than our designated payment page, there is no need to change existing system specifications. For websites that think about design between their website and a credit settlement connection method, this method is ideal for creating a sense of unity between the two. In addition, our gateway system is also linked with a fully automated billing system, so you can freely select a fully automatic continuous billing cycle that runs on a daily basis (1 to 365 days), on a monthly basis, on a weekday basis, and so on.

※ For the communication between the user and the website, it is necessary for the Merchant to have SSL communication.

Of course, this service also has a fraudulent card blocking function, filtering function, email customization function, continuous payment service. We also deal with Merchants who wish to use overseas currencies such as USD and EUR.

This is usually a means of payment, preferred by content management experts when it comes to card transactions.

CSV Batch method


MAXCONNECT’s CSV Batch method settlement is a slightly changed service. While normally, this service has a connection for carrying out card transactions between the Merchant’s site and a payment system, our service allows for card payments without going through the Web sites payment screen.

For this method, settlements will go through our management screen. It is a system that can do settlement processing very easily. The credit settlements for the CSV Batch method are divided into two parts. The first, is to set the amount of settlement based on membership credit information and the order form received by the affiliated store’s own application form; by telephone, fax, postcard, etc. Then send a CSV file from the management screen, this way all credit settlements are done all at once.

The second method, is to charge the second and subsequent credit settlements with this CSV batch method. Although our company’s fully automated accounting system is available, this CSV batch method allows you to settle the relevant settlements/corresponding periods, check the items you want to charge, change the amount as necessary, and settle. For Merchants that often use the CSV Batch system, there are companies that have regular subscriptions to products or subscriptions, as well as distributors. In cases such as when you deliver goods to a fixed customer on a fixed day of every month, you fill out the form of regular purchase with credit from the customer etc, and the case scheduled for the settlement date by the member store hits it I will.

Our CSV Batch system (batch processing), does not require member stores to develop big scale systems. The usage method is quite simple and it is one of the most popular settlement methods among many affiliated stores.

Tablet Friendly


The advantage with Tablets is that they are easy to carry around, so you can make credit card payments anywhere.

This enables settlements where a wireless connection is possible, making it unnecessary to be at a store for purchases.

When customers have paid, a confirmation screen will appear, allowing you to do business with confidence.

At conventional CAT terminals, the connection is made through a telephone line and settlements are made; the sales opportunities are stationary. In recent years, sales opportunities with credit cards are increasing in various fields. We at MAXCONNECT have created this service for Tablets to meet this demand.
