Please Recommend a Payment Processor

15 replies
Hello!
I am planning to start a recurring membership service for investors - with the help of Amember. I am still in the planning phase on how to set up the recurring billing. I am based in Russia and was wondering what recurring billing processor you can recommend for a Russian resident. I assume most of the USA based processors require local residence or impose strict rules over the Eastern European citizens..Please correct me if I am wrong!)
Will be happy to hear what you think!

    Have you looked at using Stripe payment processor? I'm not sure if they will do Russia. Also look at CCBill, they handle mostly adult sites but are global and will take on riskier ventures at a higher cost.

    Hi Dima -

    I also use Amember to manage my recurring billing. I don't know what payment processors work within your parameters - but I do know that Amember provides you with a long list of payment processors that they work with. I would start there - look through the list in your dashboard for a processor you know works with Eastern European residents.

    On the flip side, Amember also probably knows exactly which payment processors they support also work in Eastern Europe - you could try a support ticket - narrow your choices and then come back for recommendations with a list of 3 or 4.

      thanks a lot for your helpful comments...I would ideally love to hear from someone who might have experience setting up amember with some eastern residence in the background?

    Well being in Russia is probably a risk tier. The content would be a second risk tier. It varies per each payment processor.

      content will be pretty solid so hopefully that will not put them off....being a Russian citizen can be a problem though) I hope there are some Russians here who can comment as well!)

      thank you for your suggestion....I have heard about this service before....I wonder if you need to incorporate in Russia or any other country before you can start receiving payments for a website membership service or you could just your own personal detailes to set up such a billing processing account? thanks!))

    I used Verotel, Epoch and Netbilling and a few others for years. Most weren't great and some were just down right terrible especially when you consider your talking about peoples money. I highly recommend these guy's though after having worked with them; Epoch as a full service 3rd party biller, Verotel for your EU members and Netbilling for when you upgrade to your own Merchant Account.

        These choices are mostly for adult websites. Their rates are unacceptable for normal e-commerce websites.

        I'd recommend: 2Checkout and PayPal to start. To recommend more choices I need to know your target audience and what kind of content you are going to sell.
