Paypal alternatives

[JeremyTang]

Hi,
Just wondering if anyone can recommend a cheaper alternative to paypal for taking payment from say advertisers (perhaps 2-5 transactions a month)... Paypal is a little high on the fees.

try googles new service. its only 2% compared to paypals 2.9%

egold.com and then there is google, but paypal is by far the best one to use.

The most acceptable form of payment would be Paypal. I agree the fees are high.

In my opinion, Egold is the best, but it is not easy for people to fund their accounts so you may run the risk of losing business by only offering Egold as a payment processor.

There are others, but you will run into the same issues. I would offer your customers the option of using either Egold or Paypal.

I hope this was helpful.

Have a great day,
Paul Falardeau

Thanks for the replies. I think what I'll do is offer all options: google, egold and paypal... and let the user choose, but suggest the one that costs me the least!

I use paypal too but just heard a very intense story from a business client who told me he wanted to send a check to avoid paypal because his child (in college) was defrauded and PP was zero help. He was voting with his wallet.

I've never had a direct problem with PP but you hear these stories...

There are alternatives but so far no one have a fraction of users PayPal has.
I can't use PayPal (my country is not accepted) and this is big obstacle for me in my online business.

i would recomment e-gold

[HanSolo42]

I hate PayPal too, but unfortunately, they have the market cornered. It is tough convincing people to use other services.

[alterego85]

I'm using 2Checkout and Paypal. Those are not the best choice, but they're what people prefer most.

I have $50 in an e-gold account. I could trade with you, but I need the PayPal first, because e-gold transactions are completely irreversible.

[britishguy]

We use PayPal as they have thousands of account holders and we have used ClickBank for years as well ............... they both do the job ............ all be it with parameters that are set by them ................ so maybe not the flexibility that you would design yourself............ but they are at least both good on SS.

Don't know a cheaper fees solution to PayPal

[windy]

How do you think about moneybooker? I want to make payment to someone by moneybooker and i have only paypal .

[Angelus]

I've opened moneybooker account and it looks good for now.
