Hi all,

I have 3 questions regarding WorldPay, and it would be great if you can give me some insight to my questions:

1. Is WorldPay a real merchant account or something like 3rd party CC processor company (such as 2CK / Paysystem)?

2. I heard that the way WorldPay works is similar to 2CK / Paysystem, which customers will be transfer to their (WorldPay) website from your website for online payment, rather than taking all payment process in your own website. If that's true, will your customers believe that you have your own merchant account by using WorldPay? Or will they think you are more less the same as using 3rd payment processor such as 2CO and Paysystem?

3. As far as I know, business using 2CO/ Paysystem are not legal to post the official logos of VISA and MasterCard in their websites, what about business using WorldPay?

Thanks so much for all your insights in advance.

It is 3rd party CC processor. But, you can use your own merchant account.

2. I heard that the way WorldPay works is similar to 2CK / Paysystem, which customers will be transfer to their (WorldPay) website from your website for online payment, rather than taking all payment process in your own website.

Your client will pay in WorldPay website.

3. As far as I know, business using 2CO/ Paysystem are not legal to post the official logos of VISA and MasterCard in their websites, what about business using WorldPay?

I think WorldPay are not allowed to put the VISA or MasterCard logo on your website in the past. But, they lifted the constraint rencently and you can put the logos in your website. (they provide logo images for you to download in their website.)
