Fill out the domain name transfer request form and submit that to QuickFlora. Typical transfer time is 48-72 hours if you have the correct username and password and the domain is not locked for any reason. If you don’t have the correct username and password it could take much much longer.

Note: QuickFlora is not responsible for any domain names we do not directly manage. If you forget to renew your domain name, you may lose it to someone else. Make sure your primary domain name is pre-paid for as long as possible if you are managing it yourself.

Make sure the Admin, Billing and Technical contacts listed on your domain name are up-to-date, otherwise, you may not even receive a renewal notice.

If we manage your domain, we automatically renew your domains when they come up for renewal. We charge $25 per domain name / year for this service.

How does a third party website drop orders into the POS system?

There are two ways this can be accomplished:

Easy Way:

Just add a button on your existing website called “Buy Now” and link to the QuickFlora “shopping cart”. Customers then submit their order on the QuickFlora cart. This way the credit card is approved by your POS system and the order drops right onto your order page.

Harder Way:

Your webmaster can transmit the order information from the order form on your cart to a secure server, which drops the order into your POS system. This requires some work on the part of your webmaster. We can assist your webmaster with all the details (guidelines) he will need to code this on your end.

The best thing to do is discuss this with your webmaster before he starts building your custom website. Keep in mind we can also create a custom home page or website. Call us for more details for a customer bid.

Keep in mind whatever you webmaster codes for you must be PCI Complaint in terms of encrypting and securing credit card data. Visit https://www.pcisecuritystandards.org for more information.
