Can Paypal or any other payment site be used for..

    My website sends a daily mail to our subscribers providing links to individual leads of people looking for say cheap mortgage quotes.

    Now is it possible to setup paypal or say google payments in a way whereby a reader of the mail clicks on the lead link->gets taken to the payment site->they pay->lead information is sent automatically to payer.

    Clearly one lead can only be sold once..so once sold, its gone and hence another reader could not pay for it. This is VERY important.

    Is this possible? Would appreciate even if you can point me in the right direction.

    Thank you

    I would definitely suggest you email the post to paypal support staff and see what they have to say, it will not take more than 24 hrs before you get a response. [​IMG]

    Thanks - had already contacted them. Put the post on here to see if anyone here already had a similar setup.

    Is paypal normally the most cost effective for online payments?

    Yes, it should be possible with PayPal IPN (Instant Payment Notification). You would have to customize your own php/mysql backend.
