    If you are based int he US it is definitely possible to find a provider with no setup or monthly fee. You will still most likely have a monthly statement fee, which is normally $5 - $10.

    If you aren't in the US it is going to be nearly impossible to find this sort of provider.

    Paypal Premier or Business accounts can allow you to accept Credit Card Payments and they are pretty much the cheapest payment processor around but of course it is an option if you are in a Paypal supported country.

    Alternatively, you can try Plimus.com , they do not have monthly fees or setup fees but their charges are a lot higher than paypal.

    Asian Pay https://asianpay.com and http://www.chronopay.com/ are some another options too.

    That's pretty true. I would believe that if you are going into business than the small setup fees should not be an issue since it would be recovered in no time. If you are not prepared to invest some money in your business, what is the likelihood that your customers would be prepared to pay you ?

    You should choice a payment processor where you pay for the service they provide you with. This because you have better chances that this processor will be there tomorrow and the support and service should be better then the free services around.

    They earn a percentage of the transaction amount and a flat fee per transaction.

    I think he was referring to a company that doesn't charge any monthly usage fee, or a fee to get setup.

    2CO has really high fees if you are based in the US. You should be able to easily find company that charges about 1/2 of 2CO if you are US based.

    2CO has one time setup fee so it is not free and also the charge a percentage per transaction. I would recommend using 2CO than using free credit card processors.

    From 2checkout.com: http://www.2checkout.com/community/?cat=9
    "Basic transaction fees are as advertised.
    Signup/Account Establishment Fee:
    There is a one-time set-up fee of $49.
    Transaction Fees:
    2CO applies a 5.5% commission on each transaction, plus a $0.45 charge per transaction.
    Additional Penalties and Fees:
    If you elect to pay the sign up fee via the check or PayPal method and we do not receive the funds, a manual adjustment can be made for the $49.00 plus a $25.00 manual processing fee from the current balance on the account.
    Depending upon your funding selection, you can experience wire transfer costs. Additional fees can be applied for unsuccessful funding transfers, should the information provided to 2CO prove to be erroneous.
    Should you elect to be paid by check, and fail to receive one via first-class mail, you can elect to pay applicable stop-payment fees in order to have the payment reissued in advance.
    Chargeback experience can also result in fees passed along to you. We strongly encourage all contracted suppliers to assist in combating credit card fraud in order to minimize or eliminate fees of this type. Fees can vary depending upon utilization experienced by various suppliers."
    As guys said above, If you are not based in the US then you should use 2CO.
    Good luck ;)
