HAQM FPS advances to General Availability, tops it with a limited time FREE offer
|
We have exciting news coming out right now!
HAQM Flexible Payment Service is now in General Availability – and is easier to use with HAQM FPS Quick Starts. Now you can enable your applications with common payment transactions such as one time payments, recurring payments and pre-payments in hours rather than days.
HAQM FPS is the first payments service designed from the ground up for developers. With HAQM FPS, you can accept payments on your website for selling goods or services, raising donations, executing recurring payments, and sending payments.
Customers can pay you using the same login credentials, shipping address and payment information they already have on file with HAQM.
Isn’t that cool?
As we always do at HAQM, we listened to you, and we incorporated your feedback into HAQM FPS Quick Starts, a simplified set of APIs which allows you to implement a solution based on HAQM FPS, with enhanced documentation, SDKs and sample code.
HAQM FPS Quick Starts are categorized by use cases into five interoperable packages:
– Basic: enables one-time payments for e-commerce, digital goods, donations and any other online service.
– Advanced: provides periodic or delayed payment features required by subscription and usage-based services such as digital music and online storage
– Marketplace: designed for building marketplace applications
– Aggregated: reduces processing costs by consolidating multiple transactions, including micro-payments, into a single, larger transaction
– Account Management: simplifies integrating account activity, balance and transaction information
Starting today, developers who sign up for HAQM FPS by March 15th and launch their application by June 1st, 2009, can take advantage of free payment processing for the first 90 days until total transaction volume reaches $ 500,000.
