Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: Does this new shipping feature allow for Parcel Post and First Class Mail?

A: Yes, Parcel Post and First Class mail are supported.

Q: How is payment made? Billing or paid with CC at the time.

A: The module only allows you to generate USPS tracking numbers and print out labels for your shipments, it does not actually handle the postage (you still need to add postage to the package with either stamps or a postage meter).

Q: How does this work? Most of the time the shipping amount is different from the actual amount. Will the label say what the cart amount says?

A: The labels do not contain pre-paid postage. When you click on the link to generate the USPS label, it will ask you what the actual package weight is (and the label will be printed with that amount). It will also ask you:

1. Service type (Priority,Express, First Class etc.)
2. Zip code of post office that you are sending from (if it is different than your store zip code).
3. If a signature is required for delivery.
4. Holiday/Weekend delivery
5. Wether or not you want a packing receipt printed as well as the label.

This is an update to the article in our newsletter that was sent out a few weeks ago.

There was some confusion, so we went back to our merchant bank and asked for further clarification.

The regulations require online stores to perform a 2 stage credit card transaction, first an Authorization then a Delayed Capture (which charges the credit card). The Delayed Capture is performed when you "Ship" an order in your QBaroo store.

Authorization Expiration - The authorization will be downgraded by the bank (thus higher % fees) if the card is not charged (shipped) within 24 hours. Furthermore, the authorization can expire anywhere from 7 days to 30 days. The issuing bank reserves the right to reject teh transaction after 7 days. This will result in an expired Authorization and an Error 3 in QBaroo. This can also result in a $25 chargeback fee to you on each order, if you are using your own online merchant account. If you are a percentage customer, you will not see any rise in fees, as QBaroo absorbs those fees for you.

Charges over Authorized Amount - Since December 2007, we have seen a rise in errors on orders that are being charged an amount greater than the Authorized amount. If the charge goes through, the transaction will be downgraded and you will be charged a higher % on the transaction if you are using your own online merchant account. If you are a percentage customer, you will not see any rise in fees, as QBaroo absorbs those fees for you.

We hope this clarifies the VISA regulations a bit better. As always, feel free to contact us with any questions. We have a 4 Mb PDF file that spells this all out that we would be happy to send to you.
