Customer: University of Texas NISOD
Problem: They needed to complete their ecommerce integration with Authorize.net.
Solution: We took them over the goal line.

When I got the call from Christy Lewis at UT’s NISOD, it was pretty clear that they had done a pretty good job of setting up their ecommerce site.

All they needed was the last little bit, which was to take the information they were displaying in a form and make it talk to Authorize.net. They were signing academics for a conference, and many of these folks used checks or PO numbers to pay for their spots, but quite a few wanted to use credit cards online.

Our job was to figure out where to add the authorize.net scripts to their form, how to generate the MD5 hash-encrypted keys for each session, how to work around their particular server configurations, and integrating the whole loop with their Filemaker database backend.

To make matters even more interesting, we had to negotiate various obstacles left behind by past developers, but in the end, we were able to prevail and get them a workable solution before their registration deadline.
