The Alphalink Business Account is designed specifically for Business Use on the internet and supports all e-commerce requirements. If you wish to be able to handle secured online payments, database access or active server pages through your website on Alphalink, you will only be able to do so through a Business or Domain Hosting Only Account.

The Business Account is taken out, primarily, in the name of your business. As such, it may be accessed, and managed, by anyone at your business to whom you give authority. A "keyword", specific to your account, ensures its protection and security.

Note: If you need more than one person to be using your dialup account at the same time, you will require additional dialup access. This may be purchased, as may additional web/email space or additional weekly data transfer, by calling: 1300 137 425.

If you wish to include secure payment facilities through your website under your own Domain, you will also need to arrange, and pay for, an appropriate security certificate to allow SSL encryption from your site. The HavEcomm secured online payment facility offers SSL encryption for those not wishing to obtain their own certificate. Otherwise, security certificates are available through Thawte.com.

A Small Business MAY use an Alphalink Personal Account instead of the Alphalink Business Account, where desired, for the purposes of advertising and email, however, we DO NOT permit any online payments through a Personal Account website, unless that website is supported by a secured payment facility, such as HavEcomm.

It is also NOT possible to put an Alphalink Personal Account in the name of a business. All Personal Accounts MUST be in an individual's name and abide by the limitations of the Terms and Conditions of use.
