You're looking to take credit card numbers (and checking account
numbers?) and get money from them? Or just to verify that they are
valid?

Either way, there are a variety of options. The last one I worked
closely with was Cybersource; they provide interfaces via the web (using
XML, SOAP, and key-value pairs) and have pre-build APIs. I used the Java
one under Linux and was quite happy with it.

To see similar things, you might start here:

i'll second this recommendation. i've been working with Cybersource for
about a year now, and it's quite functional and usable. also, since they
partner with GlobalCollect, they support a very large number of
currencies, as well as other payment methods such as bank transfer.

one caveat: check your uptime req'ts with them. they've had a few outages
recently, and they're switching to a new IP block soon, which might cause
more.
