    Paypal is way, way better. And is the most trusted by both parties (the buyer
    and seller, or trader). They also have built a solid reputation and they are more
    strict nowadays. So better to stick with Paypal! :)

    Well, for serious businesses it's really not a question that which is better. The question is that which has better penetration or more clearly, what does your buyer prefer/have. Even though moneybookers may be great, I have yet to find any US client wanting to pay me any other method than Paypal/Credit Card.

    However, if moneybookers (or anyone else for that matter) will have to use a really aggressive marketing campaign if they want to even challenge the Paypal.

    We went with the crowd : everybody is happy to use PP. We are not; not anymore, ever.
    And collected good sales on our online products. Till the b... started to play : a deluge of inconsistent requests about who we are and what we do. :mad:
    We sell software development services, among other things. A flat payment for the job done, or by the hour if the specs are ambiguous. Flat payments can be a few 000$$$ at a time; from anywhere in the world.
    PP staff could not understand that we do not "ship" what we sell using DHL or FEDEX. Or pretended to. :eek:
    The result : 5 weeks of wasted time trying to comply with their requests; and at the end of the day they will keep sitting on our money for another 90 days. At least 90 days.
    The second result : we tried MoneyBookers - a breeze. Simple, easy, quick, no hassle. RESPECT !
    The third result : we will never try again to use PP; and we now expect that our dependant partners would drop PP as well; if they wish to keep our business and support. PP deserve to be boycotted.

    BTW, we have become active members of http://www.paypalsucks.com
    Welcome to a world without PP !

    PayPal is better but gives you more problems than any other e-currency.

    Do you know, for example, that Moneybookers do not working with US residents? Hah, funny? American company Ebay recommends service that is not working with US residents )))) !!
    Check out some of print screens. I made it at Moneybookers website trying to find why I could not pay for my Ebay items directly with money on my Moneybookers account.. The seller is located in USA..
    Not allowed for US citizens [​IMG]

    There is much more information about Moneybookers. Paypal also has some bad things to say about, but they even could operate in USA. I know that Moneybookers.ltd could not, but I do not know why, the information is away..

    Such a pity Moneybookers cannot deal with US residents ! You would have something to compare PP with.
    Paypal are not strict. They pretend to be strict, in order to sit on the sellers' money.
    And because they are technically not a bank only the abusive contract both buyer and seller sign with them does apply.
    How much money does Paypal pay to lawmakers to keep being unregulated for so long ?

    haven't had any trouble ... till you get real one.
    Just enter "Paypal" and "horror" into your search engine.
    Google did return 15 million hits when we tried ... after PP told us proudly that they would sit on our money. One of our sins was our inability to provide proof of delivery for software development services. Any 2 year old would understand that you ship software vie telecom lines.
    It felt so good to realize that we had 14.999.999 soul mates.

    Ask how much PP is paying to US lawmakers in order to make sure that legal technicalities prevent their most serious competitor from accessing the US market. That will tell it all.

    Obviously , paypal is better than moneybookers , but for some country folks like indians , paypal limits many features , so depends upon your locality also.

    Paypal is widely accepted, but moneybookers is not so popular and widely accepted. If there is no restriction it is better to use paypal, otherwise MoneyBookers is best.

    Dealing with PP is like dealing with any crook. It is OK as long as it is OK; when they take your money it is too late. Some small merchants even go bankrupt at it. Bur of course it happens only to other people. We were fortunate enough to see it happening when we had less than 1000$ on the PP account.
    When PP starts showing a wicked interest in your account they will pretend it is for a good cause; but the net result is that your money is unavailable and it will eat your valuable time to try and comply with ill-defined requirements. Usually for no result.
    They are just more clever than Bernie Madoff, as they created a legal framework where you have nothing to say when they take and keep your money. The money they fraudulently sit on amounts to hundreds of millions of US$; they even created a company to manage it. This is the reality of their business. FRAUDS
