Kavi® Commerce 4.0 Release Notes

About Kavi Commerce

Kavi Commerce provides online handling of credit card transactions for Kavi Membership so membership fees can be paid online through a PayPal credit card gateway. The secure Web interface protects confidential data while credit card payments are tracked via gateway transactional messages and order IDs. Behind the scenes, Kavi Commerce is driven by transactions originating in Kavi Billing, and reports results back to Kavi Billing while providing a seamless user experience.

New in Kavi Commerce 4.0

Kavi Commerce now uses the PayPal gateway exclusively — the manual, offline mode is now used only for testing. 4.0 also offers significant improvements in ecommerce transaction history.

• PayPal acquired Verisign, so the name of the main gateway changed. The unused Echo gateway has been removed.
• Off-line mode is available only in test mode. This avoids potential security issues involved in the offline upload and download of credit card numbers, even when the credit card information is encrypted.
• Ecommerce transactions are now retained indefinitely instead of being purged.
• Every transaction in Kavi Commerce has a link to the Manage a Bill page in the Kavi Billing application.
