It would be great if I could setup a secure form that uses SSL to collect credit card information and securely store it in the C5 database.

1. Create a SSL page
2. Create order form
3. Securely collect order information with credit card information.
4. Use dashboard to manage collected info and process order offline.
5. Send automated message at time of order submission and follow up through dashboard once order is verified.

A system like this would give C5 sites the ability to securely collect online orders for off line processing and would not require a credit card gateway.
