how to accept payment via credit card
the person who has to pay me he has some probs with paypal is there any other option for recieving money through credit card

western union can be paid by credit card in most countries
however the fees are higher - to be paid by payee and only useful only if amount far above usd 100 else fee % too high
for usd 100 fees would range about 20 usd

else a CC merchant account but that is usually much more expensive to create for YOU
else you still have another option - simple bank transfert - bank to bank - that usually is far less expensive in international transactions than personal checks

ppl only have probs with paypal if residing OUTSIDE of a pp country else pp always possible

i use all 3 a.m. options for my site successfully

Best way is to sign up for a payment gateway...I use Authorize.net, they are very user freindly, the integration is very easy.

Oh...forgot to mention....the payment gateway you use depends on the type of credit cards you will accept...some payment gateways do not process INTERNATIONL credit cards....
