Batch Processing

Aside from the automated ways of integrating with the Authorize.Net gateway, batches of credit card transactions can be uploaded to the system for processing. This differs from a regular credit card transaction in at least two ways: multiple transactions are submitted at once; and the information for the transactions is submitted in a file, as opposed to manually in a normal transaction.

This capability is useful if you collect your transaction information over the course of the day, and want to upload your transactions for processing all at one time.

It's also useful if you have recurring transactions, such as monthly subscription fees. Each month a you can upload a file containing all of your customers' transaction information to bill your customers for another month.

You don't need to upload a batch if you just have a few transactions, since you can just enter them in manually using the Virtual Terminal.
