Please,

I would like to understand how money can go from my website to my bank account (not technical aspect, only the steps).

- In the website, I put the shopping cart
- I need a merchant account to accept credit card.
-??? and what?

I would like to build a yahoo! store.
I have a bank account in Europe and I'll open a merchant account in the us

Thanks

I think you'd need a bank account in the US for a US merchant account.

im sure there are ways to not have a US bank -- Check with bigger, more global banks.

Correct. You also need a US business address. Some companies might be able to work around this but they are very few and very expensive due to the risk associated with foreign accounts.

And don’t they verify customer’s US business address?
