storefront.
Modular Architecture
Miva Merchant is specifically designed so
developers and aftermarket vendors can
implement their own customized modules
around a common API. Once a module is
developed, push-button registration
automatically integrates it into the main
Miva Merchant system.
Modules can be developed for the following
sub-systems:

Site Integration
E-merchants who have sites in HTML can
hyperlink directly into a Miva Merchant
e-catalog. Key e-catalog functions such as
product lookup, category presentation,
shopping basket, and order forms can be
accessed as components of existing
HTML-based web sites.
Security
All sensitive data can be encrypted with SSL
prior to transmission. This includes the
customer ordering process and processing of
orders. Multiple layers of login permissions
give a centralized manager the ability to
grant store-level permissions to different
developers and merchants.

key field in the administrative interface
within Miva Merchant. In addition, online
documentation is available on Miva's web
site. Support for Miva products is available
