Hi, I pulled a project for a client together rather quickly. The client’s payment gateway is Orbital Paymentech. ActiveMerchant does not support these. Google has been rather dry for ruby solutions. Would someone be willing to suggest an efficient course of action for me? Thanks, EB ---

For reading the XML, again depending on the complexity of the response, XmlSimple or Rexml should do the trick. The hard part is worrying about timeouts and errors. They should have some recommendations in their documentation regarding the best way to handle those. Jeff > **[Hey Daddio!](http://softiesonrails.com)** > > Home of Hey Daddio Software
