Hey, which is another payment option like paypal? And whats different about them? Not sure if to go paypal or not, but if anyone could explain to me why one is better than the other that would help.. Thanks.
You should go with PayPal mainly because it's the option everyone uses and feels secure with it. If you're planning of selling digital products or other services you should definitely go with PayPal. Another option out there is escrow usually used for larger deals.
PayPal is the bet option for online business men, but you should know how to use them properly otherwise they can be real pain. Regards
Paypal is the leader here in service and support - you can try smaller options, they will likely be more expensive or when glitches occur, very painful to get a hold of quickly.
Paypal is the best and most widely accepted method of payment. There are others out there, such as Alert Pay, but Paypal is the best. I woud reccomend Escrow.com for larger purchases.
One of the biggest PayPal competitors is 2checkout. Many business sites (including us) use both payment gateways at the same time. 2co is easier to administer and manage/refund payments. However, keep in mind 2co has different vendor areas now (old and new). Old is extremely simple yet easy to use, while new one is too complex and not friendly. We have a full access to both areas, but I'm not sure if new vendors get any access to old area. Their new and "improved" interface might be confusing for many people...
Well it also depends on what kind of business you want to make but I totally suggest PayPal, its the best...
there are many payment processors now days in which paypal is king and there are some alternatives to it depending on place like alertpay and moneybooker.. Good luck
mexios, you should be aware that Payoneer isn't as flexible as PayPal or 2checkout is. I would never use Payoneer as main payment gateway because it simply lacks of features.
I believe PayPal (or another payment gateway) will NEVER close your account unless you do something really bad.
well paypal is number 1 and the rest are just a far second place behind. Moneybookers or alertpay would be good choices.
I use PayPal Pro, but have considered also using Authorize.net as they have attractive affiliate programs. The former is easier because there are no minimums, unlike Authorize.net which have a minimum transaction requirement. The only problem with PayPal are the percentage fees are a little high, I have found.
