Merchandising
Smart merchandising boosts sales. And Miva Merchant helps
you implement a variety of programs designed to upsell,
offer complementary products, and identify groups qualified

Order Fulfillment
Miva Merchant is the pro at figuring sales tax, shipping
options, checking order status and processing credit cards.
It’s bundled with VeriSign PayFlow Pro and supports
over 40 others.
Through Miva Merchant's modular architecture, many other
payment processors can be integrated to a Miva Merchant storefront.
Modular Architecture
Miva Merchant is specifically designed so developers and
aftermarket vendors can implement their own customized modules
around a common API. Once a module is developed, push-button
registration automatically integrates it into the main Miva
Merchant system.
Modules can be developed for the following sub-systems:
Fulfillment
User Interface
Shipping
Payment
Currency
Sales Tax
Batch Reporting
Import / Export
Buyer Traffic Reporting
Intercept System Functions
Existing Site Integration
E-merchants who have sites in HTML can hyperlink directly
into a Miva Merchant e-catalog. Key e-catalog functions
such as product lookup, category presentation, shopping
basket, and order forms can be accessed as components of
existing HTML-based Web sites.
Security
All sensitive data can be encrypted with SSL prior to transmission.
This includes the customer ordering and processing. Multiple
layers of login permissions give a centralized manager
the ability to grant store-level permissions to different
developers and merchants.
Documentation and Support
Context-sensitive help is available for each key field within
Miva Merchant. In addition, online documentation is available
on Miva's Web site. Support for Miva products is available
through Miva's Incident Reporting System and user group
forums.
Site Administrator Friendly
Miva Merchant requires no daily management. Installation
takes less than a minute on any Miva-enabled Web server
with several automated installation scripts provided free
by Miva Corporation to hosting services and service providers.
