Online Payments

I need to build something that allows a client to make credit card payments to my client. I want to use Authorize.net as the gateway but im not sure what backend i should use - a modified opencart or something similar.
I DONT want to use paypal, blinksale, etc. as its not so much 'invoice' based but more of a method of sending funds.
This thread is very similar but no dice.
I think some sort of modified cart might work, but i was wondering if theres a better solution thats somewhat more streamlined and easier to implement. Also i'm not a developer by trade, more of a designer.

What about Authorize.net's Simple Checkout?
OTOH, does your site use any kind of scripting language right now? I know you said that you're more of a designer than a developer by trade, but on the off chance that you know or what to learn Ruby on Rails, you can fairly easily setup payment processing on your site using the library ActiveMerchant. The list of payment gateways it is compatible with is rather extensive and includes Authorize.net, Cybersource, TrustCommerce, and most (if not all) of the various PayPal options. MeMail me if you have more questions.

You could use their services to take care of both the "transaction management" (credit card fulfilment) and the "cart" infrastructure (shop) w/o ever letting people know that they're routed through Amazon.
