Well, my site is almost done and it should be up by tomorrow. Now the question is...how should I accept payment? Via paypal or via 2checkout?

I'm kinda new at this so yeah. I know there have been threads on this before (I remember seeing one before) but I wanted to post a new one because people's opinions may change

The only MAJOR benefit of 2checkout is that I have a cobalt raq and i have found a script to do an instant setup using 2checkout...but not with paypal...

So what do you guys recommend? :)

2checkout is nice. Its pretty easy to figure out and easy to setup on ur site. Also the reoccuring billing is the best feature. The admin interface is crap but they are working on this I think or I hope ! ;-)

No problems so far. ;-)

I'd say why not both. I use 2checkout but will soon add Paypal support as well, just as an extra alternative for the customers.

I use both, and feel that it is very beneficial to have both options available. 2checkout is extremely easy, to use.

Yes, use both. Paypal requires an account with them for people to pay you, some people don't have one so they will prefer to pay you directly with their credit credit card. In the other hand, some people are more comfortable with Paypal. It's an advantage to accept both.
