    What is the best recurring payment processor for someone who doesn't have a merchant account or a company registered?

    I don't want to have my personal name and address (or company name if I get one) on the credit card processing page. Plimus dont have this, 2CO don't have this, but Paypal do.

    My thoughts:

    Plimus: I keep reading horror stories about them and their phone verification.
    2CO: The have bad reviews for fees etc.
    Paypal: they have company name or personal name on the billing.
    Clickbank: poor reviews

    Are there any others I can check out that don't need a merchant account but also don't want to post my personal details on the net?

    Use a paypal business account and register a DBA for your business name. This way your personal information is not shown. It's completely reasonable to use a business name for a sole proprietor.

    There isn't going to be any legitimate anonymous payment method. The best you can do is register a DBA, and use it and a forwarding address.

    Rather high fees (15%) for those two, but they are an alternative for those that need it. Thanks for sharing! :)
