Hi,
I currently use InternetSecure for my transaction and pay 4.5% discount rate plus $1.50 per transaction. I'm interested in knowing what other providers charge? Perhaps if I can get a significantly better rate, I will begin migrating to another provider?

Can everyone post their transaction rates with their merchant provider? Thanks :)

Revecom charge $1 + 3.9%, 2Checkout 45 cents + 5.5% (which means they're better value for transactions below $30-40).

If you get a real merchant account from an Authorize.net reseller, you'll be paying as little as 20 cents + 2%. However, you will have to be based in the US to take advantage of that.

You will never be truly happy until you have your own merchant account.

They offer alot more flexibility than 3rd party processors.

It is also better for your company image.

we use http://www.emscorporate.com/ and have been very happy with them.
