Calgary Web Design Firm Offers Canadian Businesses the Ability to Accept Interac Online Debit

Calgary, Canada, January 19, 2013 --(PR.com)-- Chad Reitsma, Hawk Design Group’s lead developer explains how easy it is for your customers to use this service: "It’s just like using Interac in person, the transactions are carried out in real-time, only instead of the customer entering your credit-card number on the merchant’s website, you are directed to your online banking website. You log in like you normally do and choose which account you would like to pay with. The Interac network and the financial institution verify the funds and the transaction is completed - quickly, and securely. It’s really quite simple, just like paying with Interac at the grocery store or gas station," says Chad. "But with an added bonus for the merchant, they get to reach customers who don’t have credit-cards!"

This service is often overlooked, as most business owners simply do not know that they can integrate this into their existing websites. There is no need for an expensive overhaul because the experts at HawkDesignGroup.com can easily integrate this service into almost any existing website, web store, or e-commerce software.
