Canceled Paypal account displaces thousands of paying customers. Suggestions for alternates invited

Holy Moly that scares me. Can you share what got you shut down? I'd hate to lose my members that way.

Wow. I'm like the Stripe.com sales person.

Use stripe. I had a similar issue with a large paypal integration using the adaptive payments API.

We switched over to Stripe.com and the integration was incredibly simple. If you are just doing subscriptions, it will be a snap to set up. Plus, since they host all the credit card data off site, your compliance issues are drastically reduced.

Contact me if you have any questions regarding integration. You can literally get started in a few minutes.

So, a few questions need answering here.

1. Who is your partner.

2. What is your site that has attracted so many members in such a short space of time. - equates to 3,000 per month - I don't think the WF gets that many per month! and I know when that was launched.

3. Paypal have just shut you down. Really? usually they limit your account and ask for details to be sent to them. You comply with their request, send the relevant legal documents and they phone you - yes they phone you and tell you the outcome of their limitation. Either it stays, or it goes away for you to trade another day.

4. To cancel subscription payments in your PayPal account, just log in and go to a subscription payment in your records, click the link, choose see all subscription payments and cancel them all. Job done in about - well for 15000 perhaps HALF AN HOUR.

Perhaps your only solution is going to be worldpay as long as your site meets with their requirements/TOS/ Policies etc.

Now, remind me again, what is your site, what do you sell?

Your post here is a little like someone with a car (automobile) problem.

You are not telling us the make or the model.
You are not telling us the year of manufacture.
You are not telling us well anything really.
"I" look forward to your reply.

You could use 1shoppingcart or 2checkout.

Janet, I am going to assume Jamie is talking
about this website.

Network Marketing VT

Jame, No matter what option you choose, you are
going to have to resign all those people with your
new provider.

Your going to lose a few in the changeover.

I would personally get into contact with paypal
and find out what the problem is.

If its a MLM, 2 tier or more program thats probably
the issue. 2 or more tiers is against paypal terms.

Take Care,

You don't need a new payment processor. You stated you have a merchant account...

You need to get your clients signed up and billed on that merchant account. Use a solution like Nanacast for the checkout and billing management then get a second merchant account as a backup. Nanacast can seemlessly swap between or even load balance between multiple merchant account gateways so that a similar situation does not take you down again.

People use PayPal out of convenience and trust... Now that you have been bitten go merchant processing through your authorize.net account or other merchant gateways and don't look back. This situation is all to common... If anyone reading this is considering recurring processing, take my advice, you won't be telling a similar story to this one which we have heard so many times over the last decade.

The best advice... If you can process recurring in a merchant account don't risk PayPal. Only use it for one time transactions.

I help people process millions and millions and this is the same advice I have given for many years as the ONLY way to avoid this type of unfortunate situation.
