    It's not that cheap either - 2.50 % ( or 4.90 % if paid by credit card ) + $0.25 USD.

    Yes, since paypal is widely used...alertpay users are low and it creates problem in making deals or completing the transaction.

    Because Paypal is operated by more countries and it is most used payment processor,Paypal is better to use rather than Alertpay.

    alertpay is also Very Good Payment Procesor and it is also Widely used but not greater then Paypal.
    Alertpay allows the Account from The Countries which are banded by paypal.

    alert pay is very nice for small payments... try both paypal and alertpay as there is no harm in using them instead you will get more experience only..!!

    Paypal is the best option, but If you want alternatives then Moneybookers, and alertpay. Alertpay is also widely used in asian countries.

    I have paypal & alertpay account. I think paypal is best as per payment processor and widely accepted. But having account of alertpay will give you some extra benefit in some sites.

    Well PayPal does have the habit of freezing funds quite too often.

    If you have had such problems, Alertpay is a good alternative.

    It all depends on the nature of what you are selling.

    All processors have limitations on what is allowed.

    Every month I sell about $100 worth of my Alertpay payment modules written for Virtuemart, Interspire and Zencart,
    so there are people out there that using Alertpay usually because they have had problems with their previous processors.
