XML Pay
Overview XML (Extensible Markup Language), the flexible data framework that allows applications to communicate on the Internet, has become the preferred infrastructure for e-commerce applications. All of those transactions require trust and security, making it mission-critical to devise common XML mechanisms for authenticating merchants, buyers, and suppliers to each other, and for digitally signing and encrypting XML documents like contracts and payment transactions. XML Trust Services—a four-component suite of open specifications for application developers developed in partnership with industry leaders including Microsoft, Ariba, WebMethods, and Netegrity—makes it easier than ever to integrate a broad range of trust services into B2B and B2C applications. XML complements Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) and digital certificates, the standard method for securing Internet transactions. This paper describes the capabilities that XMLPay brings to payment services in a variety of application scenarios. The intended audience of this paper is anyone who is thinking about adding the ability to payment capabilities to their merchant Web site, B2B trading exchange, or other online transaction system. We describe what XMLPay is, who uses it, and how the VeriSign XMLPay payment gateway implementation makes it possible to use XML simply and easily in payment service applications.
