Hello,

Because of some problems with paypal I won't be able to use it anytime soon. Do you think that 2CheckOut is a viable alternative for me as a merchant?

Thanks in advance,
Baort.

    Using 2Checkout will still let buyers pay with their Paypal account. So in effect, 2CO let you accept PP without having to deal with PP (the best of both worlds)

        Absolutely - go with 2CO!
        I am a diehard Paypal user - and love it - but don't agree that it's "hard to make money online without Paypal". Perhaps most Warrior members use it - and IMers in general, but I've actually found that a LOT of people in other niches don't want to use it. I added 2CO as a back-up payment option, and didn't even really make it super obvious that it was available - yet lots of people seem to be using it instead.

        There were a lot of things I didn't like about 2CO initially (primarily since I was used to Paypal), but I'm coming around! The automatic (no fee) bank transfers on a regular basis are helping, I must say! ;-)

    Use 2CO as they accept paypal, echeck and all the major credit card vendors. The only downside is being their fee. They charge 5.5% trans fee + 5% reserve. So that means when you sell $100, they will take $10.50. You will get $5 from that after 90 days.

    Try Fastspring.com to accept paypal payments. I used this service since 2009 and get no problems at all. They paid twice per a month and less commissions.

    Of course it is. With 2CO you can accept payments made with VISA/MC and... even PayPal
