any better alternative to paypal?

A service that provides, among others, escrow facility, charges minimal fees, very reliable and trustworthy.

Any recommendations will be most appreciated.

Thanks!

 

I've used epassporte without problem, but they don't offer an escrow. I just end up using paypal as its the most common ecurrency and my customers all use it.

 

Google checkout and Moneybookers.

 

There's a new company just starting up that's going into competition with PayPal. They're calling themselves Revolution Money Exchange. I sure hope they live up to their name.

They're not on too many websites right now, but I'm sure that will change. PayPal was probably only on eBay when they started out.

I've been with PayPal for about 6 years now. I don't know if I got in when they were starting out or not, but I did get a $5.00 sign up bonus from them.

I recommend that anyone who does business with PayPal should sign up for Revolution Money Exchange. Way I see it is that competition is good for the market. If Revolution Money Exchange puts pressure on PayPal then it'll be good for everyone.

Right now Revolution Money Exchange is offering a $25 sign up bonus for new members. That offer ends on May 15th so there's not much time left.

I've seen a link around here someplace for people to use to sign up.

I bet it can be found somewhere around here if someone looks carefully.

 

Moneybookers, and dont go to that RME thingy. Its operated in a nuthouse for sure.

Yea, what a bunch of loonies. Co-Founder of AOL, Former Vice Chairman, J.P. Morgan, Former President & CEO of MasterCard, former Secretary of the Treasury, These guys couldn't operate a lemonade stand. WHAT was I thinking when I signed up? Maybe I should hold onto that $25. I'll probably feel sorry for them and want to give it back once they end up in bankruptcy.

Does RME have an escrow feature?

 

Unfortunately, no. They've only been active for a few months. They may offer escrow later on but right now they're focusing on allowing people to send and recieve money.

 

Moneybookers, Alertpay

 

I would go for moneybookers.

 

Go for egold

 

Moneybookers & eGold

 

Where do you get this info? RME is a division of an S & L in South Dakota

 

This comes from the About Us link on their website.

I'd say moneybookers, but they still are nowhere near the user base of paypal.

 

moneybookers is the best and yes they have this escrow facility too in there accounts

so i think this is the best payment processor to choose from

 

I stand corrected

 

Not entirely, RME is a stand alone Corporation, but it is associated very closely with a bank.

 

I think RMV is only for US members.
