merchant account

[thebillionaire]

hey I was wondering if there were any free merchant accounts other than paypal?

[intelliot]

paypal is not a merchant account

[thebillionaire]

what is it?

[intelliot]

online payment service. paypal handles credit card processing whereas in merchant accounts you do it yourself.

[thebillionaire]

are there any other programs like paypal?

[intelliot]

yes, including stormpay and egold.

2co seems more expensive than paypal. is it worth the extra money?

Hey chris is digital5 advertising or is the program good?

[MarkB]

Intelliot, 2CO is a nice alternative for people who don't want to use PayPal. It's expensive, but good enough if you do not have the level of transactions to warrant a stand-alone merchant account through a bank...

[thebillionaire]

when some one buys stuff from you through an account like 2co or paypal do you see the persons credit card number if so will it be in the paypals or 2co secure directory?

[intelliot]

paypal: no. it is a secure transaction entirely on paypal's servers and you don't see anything but the payment.

2co: i don't know but it is very unlikely that you see their credit card number. that would be rather insecure.

[thebillionaire]

ok thats good because I was woried about the credit card numbers being in a non secure server.
