PROCESS-VOICE & NON-VOICE
It's call centre / technical support work that requires some interaction with callers by voice - somewhere between "voice" (which is entirely caller interaction) and "non-voice" (where you don't talk to callers).
OUTBOUND VOICE PROCESS
An outbound call is one initiated from a call center agent to a customer on behalf of the call center or a client. Typical outbound calls include include telemarketing, sales or fund-raising calls, as well as calls for contact list updating, surveys or verification services.A call center may handle either outbound or inbound process exclusively or might deal with a combination of the two.
INBOUND VOICE PROCESS
An inbound call is one that a customer initiates to a call center or contact center. A help desk handles inbound calls as well, although calls may be made from employees rather than customers. A call center may handle either inbound or outbound calls exclusively or might deal with a combination of the two.
Inbound call center agent performance is measured according to several metrics, including first call resolution (FCR), average handle time (AHT) and time in queue. Inbound call centers sometimes stipulate service goals the center will work toward in a service-level agreement (SLA).
Today's call center agents often communicate with customers through email and chat as well as telephone calls.These type of process called multi tasking or blended process

PAYMENT GATEWAY
A payment gateway is an e-commerce application service provider service that authorizes credit card payments for e-businesses, online retailers, bricks and clicks, or traditional brick and mortar.
It is the equivalent of a physical point of sale terminal located in most retail outlets. Payment gateways protect credit card details by encrypting sensitive information, such as credit card numbers, to ensure that information is passed securely between the customer and the merchant and also between merchant and the payment processor.
A payment gateway facilitates the transfer of information between a payment portal (such as a website, mobile phone or interactive voice response service) and the Front End Processor or acquiring bank.
Typical transaction process
When a customer orders a product from a payment gateway-enabled merchant, the payment gateway performs a variety of tasks to process the transaction.
A customer places order on website by pressing the 'Submit Order' or equivalent button, or perhaps enters their card details using an automatic phone answering service.
If the order is via a website, the customer's web browser encrypts the information to be sent between the browser and the merchant's webserver. In between other methods, this may be done via SSL (Secure Socket Layer) encryption. The payment gateway may allow transaction data to be sent directly from the customer's browser to the gateway, bypassing the merchant's systems. This reduces the merchant's Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard compliance obligations without redirecting the customer away from the website.
The merchant then forwards the transaction details to their payment gateway. This is another (SSL) encrypted connection to the payment server hosted by the payment gateway.
The payment gateway forwards the transaction information to the payment processor used by the merchant's acquiring bank.
The payment processor forwards the transaction information to the card association (e.g., Visa/MasterCard/American Express). If an American Express or Discover Card was used, then the processor acts as the issuing bank and directly provides a response of approved or declined to the payment gateway. Otherwise [e.g.: a MasterCard or Visa card was used], the card association routes the transaction to the correct card issuing bank.
The credit card issuing bank receives the authorization request and does fraud and credit or debit checks and then sends a response back to the processor (via the same process as the request for authorization) with a response code [e.g.: approved, denied]. In addition to communicating the fate of the authorization request, the response code is used to define the reason why the transaction failed (such as insufficient funds, or bank link not available). Meanwhile, the credit card issuer holds an authorization associated with that merchant and consumer for the approved amount. This can impact the consumer's ability to further spend (e.g.: because it reduces the line of credit available or because it puts a hold on a portion of the funds in a debit account).
The processor forwards the authorization response to the payment gateway (see list here)
The payment gateway receives the response, and forwards it on to the website (or whatever interface was used to process the payment) where it is interpreted as a relevant response then relayed back to the merchant and cardholder. This is known as the Authorization or "Auth"
The entire process typically takes 2–3 seconds.
The merchant then fulfills the order and the above process is repeated but this time to "Clear" the authorization by consummating the transaction. Typically the "Clear" is initiated only after the merchant has fulfilled the transaction (e.g.: shipped the order). This results in the issuing bank 'clearing' the 'auth' (i.e.: moves auth-hold to a debit) and prepares them to settle with the merchant acquiring bank.
The merchant submits all their approved authorizations, in a "batch" (e.g.: end of day), to their acquiring bank for settlement via its processor.
The acquiring bank makes the batch settlement request of the credit card issuer.
The credit card issuer makes a settlement payment to the acquiring bank (e.g.: the next day)
The acquiring bank subsequently deposits the total of the approved funds into the merchant's nominated account (e.g.: the day after). This could be an account with the acquiring bank if the merchant does their banking with the same bank, or an account with another bank.
The entire process from authorization to settlement to funding typically takes 3 days.
Many payment gateways also provide tools to automatically screen orders for fraud and calculate tax in real time prior to the authorization request being sent to the processor. Tools to detect fraud include geolocation, velocity pattern analysis, OFAC list lookups, 'black-list' lookups, delivery address verification, computer finger printing technology, identity morphing detection, and basic AVS checks.
Security
Since the customer is usually required to enter personal details, the entire communication of 'Submit Order' page (i.e. customer - payment gateway) is often carried out through HTTPS protocol.
To validate the request of the payment page result, signed request is often used - which is the result of the hash function in which the parameters of an application confirmed by a «secret word», known only to the merchant and payment gateway.
To validate the request of the payment page result, sometimes IP of the requesting server has to be verified.
There is a growing support by acquirers, issuers and subsequently by payment gateways for Virtual Payer Authentication (VPA), implemented as 3-D Secure protocol - branded as Verified by VISA,[5] MasterCard SecureCode[6] and J/Secure by JCB along with Card Verification Value, which adds additional layer of security for online payments. 3-D Secure promises to alleviate some of the problems facing online merchants, like the inherent distance between the seller and the buyer, and the inability of the first to easily confirm the identity of the second.
Payment Gateway providers follow PCI DSS, the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard, which ensure safety of the cardholder's data.
PREDICTIVE DIALER
A predictive dialer dials a list of telephone numbers and connects answered dials to people making calls, often referred to as agents. Predictive dialers use statistical algorithms to minimize the time that agents spend waiting between conversations, while minimizing the occurrence of someone answering when no agent is available.
When dialing numbers one at a time, there are two sources of delay. First, only some fraction of dials are answered. So, for example, if 1 out of 3 dials are answered, a predictive dialer might dial 3 lines every time an agent becomes available. Second, even dials that are answered take some time before being picked up. If it typically takes 10 seconds for someone to pick up, and conversations typically last 90 seconds, a predictive dialer might start dialing at 80 seconds.
Dialing one number at a time, only when an agent is available, typically keeps agents utilized for 40 minutes per hour (33% idle time). Predictive dialing can increase utilization to 57 minutes per hour (5% idle time).
Predictive dialers may be standalone hardware devices, or they may be integrated in software with call center or contact center platforms. When integrated, the dialer often also performs less aggressive dialing modes, such as power, progressive, or preview dialing.
Regulations
In the UK, Ofcom requires that predictive dialers abandon less than 3% of answered calls on a daily basis. Ofcom also requires that if an agent is not available within 2 seconds the call is considered "abandoned" and an automated message is played. The automated message must identify the company making the call, the purpose of the call, a free phone or basic rate phone number to call back on and must not contain any form of marketing. A phone call to the return number must not be treated by the company as an opportunity to market, but to be removed from the calling list. In the UK "abandoned" calls must not be called back within 72 hours unless there is a dedicated agent available.
In the USA, if someone answers but no agent is available within 2 seconds of the person's greeting, Federal Communications Commission (FCC) regulations consider the call "abandoned" and require the dialer to play a recorded message. The FCC requires that predictive dialers abandon less than 3% of answered calls.
In Canada, the maximum abandon rate is 5%, and calls cannot be made to numbers registered with the National Do Not Call Registry, emergency or health care providers.
VOIP CALL ROUTING
Recently a few services have popped up that allow "free" calls to various international points. There are all based in the U.S. state of Iowa, and the way they work is that you call a regular number in Iowa, wait for a prompt, then dial the number you want to call. As best anyone can determine, there must be some quirk in Iowa telecommunications law that allows them to charge higher than normal termination charges on connected calls, and they use VoIP to complete the calls, so they actually wind up making anywhere from a fraction of a cent to a few cents on each minute of use. If the Federal Communications Commission ever reforms the ridiculous compensation system we have here, these companies will probably be out of business overnight.
NOTE: on January 29, 2007 AT&T filed a lawsuit that "seeks to stop FuturePhone as well as the telcos who provide local infrastructure from continuing with their operations that use regulatory-fee arbitrage and VoIP to provide international calls for only the price of a long-distance call to Iowa." (quote from linked article). This has already resulted in some of these companies discontinuing or modifying their service.
For now, if you have "free" calling within the USA, and can place calls to the Iowa numbers that are still in operation, you can then get connected through to numbers in other countries, including Mexico (which is a fairly high cost call on many U.S. long distance plans) at no additional charge.
The challenge, then, is whether Asterisk/FreePBX can work in this manner. Assuming a user dials an international call to certain countries, select an outbound trunk (that allows completion of U.S. calls) and then do the following:
1) Connect to a particular U.S. number (NOT the number dialed by the user),
2) Wait for the other end to answer, then wait until it is ready to receive digits (a couple seconds timeout may work),
3) Send DTMF tones, possibly interspersed with waits, to the other end, representing the number the caller originally dialed, but the number MIGHT have to be massaged a bit. For example, if the caller is in a country where you dial 00+country code+number and the U.S. system expects 011+country code+number, you'd need to strip the "00" and add the "011." Also I believe one of the systems has an initial prompt that is something like "press 1 for English, press 2 for Spanish" so in some cases there may be a need to prepend additional digits and/or wait states.
Now, I have determined that it IS possible to have Asterisk send post-connect DTMF digits and waits. For example, if you were to add this to extensions_custom.conf in FreePBX or Trixbox:
exten => *20,1,Dial(Local/18005558355@outbound-allroutes,,D(wwwwww932))
exten => *20,2,Hangup
Assuming you had a route for U.S. 1-800 numbers, when the user dials *20 it would place a call to the "TellMe" service, then wait three seconds, then send DTMF for 932 ("WEA") which would take you directly to the WEAther forecast section (to further automate it for a particular location, you could add a few more waits - I've found that wwwwwwww is about right - after the 932, and then a five-digit U.S. zip code). The point is that the caller never hears the tones that are being sent because the audio path doesn't connect until after the digits have been sent (which would make this technique useful for sending account codes, etc.)
I will list a few of these "free" international call services below. Remember that the numbers you have to call are NOT toll free, so they are only "free" if you have unlimited U.S. calling, or are using a cell phone with "free" airtime, etc. Also, I have no connection to any of these companies, so I cannot say whether they might save the calling or called numbers for any reason - obviously if you are highly concerned about privacy of communications, you would want to investigate these services further before using them. Please note that the list of countries that can be called through each provider may change without notice.
