Payment Processor Simple Question

lena111 · 09-02-2009, 07:18 PM

Hello again warriors I am new to product development and I just have a simple question about payment processors or carts

I have been making money online through adsense and some affiliates and they always pay me by check and by paypal.

I visited some info product sites and I noticed that they have their own payment processors.

My problem is I dont know where to get on for my new site where I will sell info products as well.

Do you know some placees in the web where I can get this stuff?

Go with PayPal, they have the lowest rates, are respected in this industry and very easy to work with.

Thanks for the reply scot

Yes I am using paypal

but I find other sites that use their own... can you recommend something other than paypal

I have used Authorize.net in the past and they are pretty reliable.

There are many others out there now that I'm sure are just as good.

I can vouch for Authorize.net, I used them for several years in an online/offline business and they were quite reliable. They're also on the approved 'gateway' list for most major banks.

But if you're going to be selling info products, I think using something like Authorize.net is overkill. You still have to get a credit card processor, either your bank or umpteen other options if you get on the net and search for 'credit card processor'. It ends up costing more when you go that route, because each entity has their own set of monthly fees you have to pay.

I'd encourage you to take a second look at PayPal. It's a simple to use credit card processor with extremely competitive fees, and buyers don't need to have a PayPal account in order to use their credit cards for a purchase. You can also integrate many different shopping carts with it, so it's pretty versatile.

PayPal is definitely the best choice for you at this point in time. And it works out alright seeing how you said you already have a PayPal account. More people use PayPal than any other processor, so it will be to your advantage to use it as well.
