Software contains the client front-end program necessary to securely communicate to AADs CCI server. The client program will initiate a credit card authorization requestto the CCI server which will return the results back to the client. The client program uses HTML template files for each possible result scenerio in order for the merchant to customize these returned responses. Credit Card transactions are encrypted and sent to the server for authorization. Returned results can be stored in any ODBC-compliant database and displayed using user-defined templates. This software is configured to communicate to the AAD test CCI server.
