Hello everyone!
We're from Russia and going to open e-commerce shops (drop shipping). We have a problem with finding a payment gateway that meets our needs. We really need your help.
Necessary conditions:
  • The payment gateway must serve Spain, Italy and the US and Russia altogether.
  • There should be reasonable fees (setup, monthly, transaction) or no monthly\setup fees.
  • It should support all popular payment systems.

Thank you ever so much for help. Looking forward to your advice!

    We use Eway here in Australia but they partner or were acquired by Global payments.

    They handle Russia, Spain, Italy and US. Not sure about Global payments fees but it is worth having a reliable payment gateway and paying what it costs.

    Is there some reason you cannot use PayPal?

    • Paypal is a notorious payment gateway according to reviews. They may ban accounts without reason, the withdrawal of money is long, their Support is poor.

        PayPal is also the most used payment processor and I think you will find that the support is poor for ALL payment processing companies (the payment processing industry is, perhaps, the worst industry on the planet as far as customer service is concerned). I've called PayPal a few times because of issues and, so far, they have been very professional and fixed the issues to my satisfaction immediately.

        We always have PayPal as a payment option on our sites but adding an additional payment processor is also a good idea. NOT having PayPal as an option for your customers WILL hurt your sales; though, I guarantee it.

        Things are likely different in Russia than they are here in the U.S.A. We receive our money the very next business day from PayPal, which is 2-3 times faster than through a regular payment processor.

        As far as banning accounts "without reason" goes, there is ALWAYS a reason - even if the people who got banned don't want to admit it or don't like the reason. Now, that reason may not be a very good one in your opinion, but no account has ever been banned for absolutely no reason that I know of. That would be a pretty dumb business model.

        The bottom line: Get something up where you can start taking money immediately. You should set up a PayPal account because it will help conversions and it is easy to do. Then, you can add other payment processors in addition to PayPal so that all of your "eggs" are not in the PayPal basket.

      Don't tell them that you dropship! I've never filled out an payment processor application yet where they asked "do you dropship?"
