    Hi all, I have a website i just made that charges $.99 per one hundred visitors. Only problem is that paypal charges $.30 per transaction plus a small percentage. So out of the $.99 I only get $.66. thats a 33% loss. Is there anything I can do to avoid this? Should I use a different method for users to pay with? thanks in advanced

    Upgrade your paypal account to premiere, or buy in bulk so fees are reduced.

    alternatives;
    AlertPay.com
    Evowallet
    Google - Payment Processors.

    The only way to reduce the cost is only accept payment at high value such as $99.
    Or you can try moneybooker.

    I agree with their posts. You either upgrade to Premiere or accept payment in bulk. I personally believe that Paypal is one of the safest ways to go. I have never had a problem with it.
