Selling online without paypal?

Hi,
Unfortunately I live in a country where paypal is not allowed. I am going to launch a WSO for website design/launch soon.

So I am looking for a solution where buyers can pay via paypal but I (seller) can then withdraw the payments to my bank account.

I have looked into gumroad, jvzoo, plasso etc but everyone demands paypal to join or withdraw funds.


What are my options?

Any help would be appreciated.

P.S: Not sure it is the right forum.

Ahmar.

    I am not sure you understand the question. I am not looking for paypal alternative. as I already have skrill. I want to sell online so that buyers can pay with paypal and I can withdraw funds in any other way

      Yes, I understand this.

      If you look through the thread I suggested, you'll find discussion of that point where some of the PayPal alternatives are described. For example, if you use 2Checkout, your customers can pay them by PayPal but you don't need a PayPal account yourself, to collect the money from 2Checkout. There are also other services of which that's true (including ClickBank), mentioned in that thread.

      No, of course, services like JVZoo will be no use to you, as they're entirely PayPal-dependent. But there are others of whom that isn't true.

    Well looks like 2co is a major payment gateway for big businesses. I don't think that model is suitable for selling few copies of wso

      Ah, you want only a small one that doesn't look very good, perhaps? :confused:

      (I've seen WSO's sold through 2Checkout, if that helps! ).

          I'd be quite reassured by that, myself. In these days of copious and ever-changing worldwide anti-money-laundering regulations, there's going to be some "administration" involved in arranging online payments, however you look at it, Ahmar. It's even possible that the fact that you live in a non-PayPal country is also going to make them a little more onerous for you than for some others (which is a bit of a pain, I can see), but these things are not so simple, these days. Overall, that's kind of understandable and perhaps quite a good thing (though it doesn't feel that way at the time).

          Fastspring might be worth a look (they certainly used to take PayPal payments and pay vendors by other means, but that may all be out of date, now). ClickBank too (again, you can sell a WSO through ClickBank).

            Yeah I can totally understand your point. Even my skrill account got limited for no apparent reason in the past even though it was both address and credit card verified. Living in US or Uk makes things a lot easier.
