Avalon Business Direct is the company and they sell merchant accounts
through Innovative Marketing Solutions

These guys avalon are selling a product known as flash secret that allows
non-programmers the ability to make flash web apps using a wysiwg
interface.

Geez... these are both very expensive examples.  The merchant accounts that
we setup are about $30 / month + small transaction charges.  The Internet
Point of Sale System is about $250 to setup and then $30 / month, plus very
small transaction charges.  Plus you have a complete accounting management
system included for your merchant account and by using it,  you save the
$450 to $800 for those expensive credit card machines.  The system replaces
the need for the machine.

Thanks,
Bev
