Congratulations on your decision to enter the world of eCommerce!

ZEN CART: THE BEST SHOPPING CART SYSTEM
Why Zen Cart? Having researched the many options available in shopping cart software, I've found Zen Cart tops the list in both features available and ability to upgrade. In addition, Zen Cart is an open source project, meaning it is FREE to use and customize as you wish. For the end user, this means there are no fees associated with the use of the code. No set up fees, no monthly fees! In addition, zen cart is supported by thousands of users who strive to continually update the code offering features only previously found in pricey pay per use solutions. If you can think of a feature, chances are it is available with Zen Cart!

SSL CERTIFICATES
Although not required to run a Zen Cart site, having an SSL Certificate will show your customers that you care about their privacy. Security risks associated with online shopping are increasing every day and online buyers are demanding more secure web sites. Do yourself a favor and purchase an SSL Certificate, it will increase your credibility and sales.
