      <p><font face="Tahoma,Arial,Helvetica" size="2">From the Payment section
        of your admin panel, Gossamer Links gives you the ability to set up
        your Gossamer Links installation to accept payments through online
        payment service providers.  Currently, Gossamer Links can process payments
        through Authorize.net, WorldPay, PayPal and Moneris.</font></p>

      <p><font face="Tahoma,Arial,Helvetica" size="2">Basically, in order to
        set up payment handling, you need to create one or more payment
        methods.  A payment method is simply a way of establishing that certain
        types of payments should go to a particular payment service provider.
        For example, setting up your installation to accept Paypal payments
        would require a Paypal method.  Likewise, setting up credit card
        processing capabilities would also require setting up a payment method.
        Through the configuration of payment methods, you define how payments
        may be accepted, and with which online payment service provider those
        payments are handled.</font></p>

      <p><font face="Tahoma,Arial,Helvetica" size="2">Beyond the actual
        processing of payments, there are several options available to
        you:</font></p>

      <h4>Payment Discounts</h4>
      <p><font face="Tahoma,Arial,Helvetica" size="2">Multiple links
        discount levels. You could be able to add as many discount
        levels as you want.</font></p>

      <h4>Renewals</h4>
      <p><font face="Tahoma,Arial,Helvetica" size="2">  Additionally, you can
        define seperate renewal payment levels (e.g., when renewing, $30 gets
        you an additional year, instead of $40 for the initial year).</font></p>

      <h4>Recurring payments</h4>
      <p><font face="Tahoma,Arial,Helvetica" size="2">  You can also configure
        recurring payments that will automatically be charged to users at specified
        intervals.</font></p>
