VARCommerce + Card payment gateways

In one paragraph

VARCommerce takes card payments at storefront checkout and against invoices through your choice of gateway, CardConnect, Authorize.net, USAePay or First Data, and stores customer cards through the gateway's tokenisation so card numbers never live in VARCommerce, which is how customers meet PCI requirements while still keeping cards on file for repeat orders.
