specifiic Paypal alternative

hey guys,

do you know of any Paypal alternatives that don't charge you to receive funds?

 

I do not think you would be able to find a good payment processor who doesn't charge you and still provide you with decent service.

Some people charge more while some less.....Moneybookers has lower fees but it does not match to Paypal in wider acceptance.

Regards,

I'm never charged to receive a Moneybookers payment. It seems like the sender always has to pay the fees.

 

You may try alertpay.Though,charge is applicable for all payment processor.

 

Oh nice. So I guess moneybookers is the only one that doesn't charge to receive funds then?

 

I have a Moneybookers account but use it only if I absolutely can't avoid it. I'd rather use AlertPay and have to pay a fee for receiving funds. Moneybookers is fine until/unless something goes wrong (which it sometimes does): their idea of customer service is a complete joke and it can easily take a week to get a reply to an email (and I mean routinely, not just over the holidays). AlertPay, on the other hand, has been steadily improving its customer service over the last couple of years and really trying hard to give PayPal some serious competition. I'm wary of "free services" when dealing with anything online: you tend overall to get what you pay for, and to be better placed as a paying customer, IMHO.

 

You'd rather let AlertPay charge you 0.59+3.9% per transaction?

 

I don't pay as much as that. On a $5 payment, that equation would work out at about $4.21 net, but on a $5 payment I actually receive $4.50 clear. And collect the money with no problem, by quick transfer directly into my bank account, with no problems and good customer service. Experience has taught me (and many other people) that this would be an unrealistic expectation from Moneybookers.

 

Try AlertPay, Someone says AP is next to PP..

 

I don't know, those fees are just too high for me to consider. I'm sure there is an alternative out there that doesn't charge that much to receive funds.

 

i heard people talk about alertpay but i would stick with pp

 

Do try swerg.org and they did offer flat fee if your product price is lower then $250.
the fee is $0.99 flat rate
