    I wonder if there is any simple, easy to setup, no credit check payment processors where it just gets wired into your bank account ... unlike paypal

    Something that the customer doesnt have to join to buy from the website.. they can just add their credit card information and billing info and click buy now

    No you can't. Authnet resellers offer true merchant accounts and all of them require a credit check.

    If you are doing less than $30,000 a month based in the United States, most processors will support you. A credit check is done but processors understand that most people run their business differently than their personal life. Unless you have a pretty low score or a lot of derogatory remarks, you have a good chance.

    Of course, it all depends on where you are, etc

    Google Checkout doesn't require a person to have a merchant account in order to process. Checkout is not a payment method; it accepts and processes existing payment methods, such as Visa and MasterCard.

    Since the Google checkout is integrated with Adwords, chances are you will be spending more money than with another processor / IPSP (internet payment service provider). It acts like a gateway but there are subtle differences. Whereas most gateways do not charge a discount rate, Google charges a discount rate and a transaction fee. Other differences can include the limitations, restrictions and reserves applied to checkout accounts. There is also a monthly dollar limit that might be applied to merchants and merchants might process hundreds of dollars before funds are released. And Google might require a merchant to have a payout reserve before they receive any funds.

    Ouch , that seems very costly and one may have to wait a good bit before being able to draw from.

    Also like adsense, it seems google has carried through with their hoops that people have to jump though hoops and stuff...

    I havent had such good luck contacting Google for adsense issues so after reading this I think I will pass on their payment processing

    Thanks Man
