NetStores Announces Major Upgrade Features to MacCommerce Designer and MacCommerce Server Software.

EUGENE, Ore. -- NetStores today announced MacCommerce Designer and MacCommerce Server version 1.03. The upgraded features are among the first e-commerce shopping cart software to add Dynamic Currency Conversion (DCC), International Merchant Account acceptance, and additional international Gateway Support. Related features include Plug n' Pay Gateway, which supports DCC by locking in point-of-purchase currency conversion for international customers, PSiGate, offering online payment solutions for Canadian merchants, and Optimal Payments, a cost-effective credit card processor that works with European and Canadian currencies.

Dynamic currency conversion instantly lets European customers see exactly what their overseas purchase will cost by locking-in the currency conversion equivalent at point of purchase. The cardholder is able to view the price of the transaction, and actually pay for the transaction, in the cardholder's own currency -- in real time at the point-of-sale -- while the merchant still conducts business in its local currency.

MacCommerce is built to deliver Ecommerce Applications on Apple's OSX and OSX Server, built in Apache Webserver. The MacCommerce products give any Mac(R) user, from small businesses to large enterprises and ISPs, the capacity to host an unlimited number of e-commerce websites. The comprehensive e-commerce solution features the drag-and-drop simplicity of MacCommerce(TM) Tools for Macromedia(R) Dreamweaver(R) and Adobe(R) GoLive(R) e-commerce site designers.
