if i need a payment processor that allow me to charge membership(maybe just about 5 dollars) internationally. and also i need to have control over whats going to appear on their credit card/bank(some custom message/code) . what would be a good one ?

Depends on the country you are in. If you are in the United States, you have a number of options available to you for a merchant account and an electronic payment gateway.

Paypal can do that in a way. However the statement on their cards would show 'Paypal YOUR_MESSAGE'.

if you don't mind using paypal, good if you have low volume of transactions. i think premier and business accounts are allowed to create custom text on credit card statement i.e. PAYPAL *your message*.

i know that paypal can have my own message, however that message is fixed for all transactions, i needed a solution that allows me to have a unique statement for each transaction.

What is the nature of your business, kushnush? It seems like you are seeking to setup something like a payment aggregation account?

For most merchant SIC codes, the transaction data passed on the Visa & MasterCard authorization & settlement systems do not support custom messages like the ones you are describing.

the site just collects small membership fees from the members, but to reduce fraud and minimise risk, i was thinking of doing something like what paypal does, they put a 4 digit code on your credit card statement and have you verify them so that credit card is not a stolen card.

the reason why i have this requirement is because i have shopped and there is nothing about the payment processor the merchants are using(eg, 2CO) it looks something like ..

[COMPANY NAME] [DATE] [MY CARD NUMBER] [AMOUNT]

and its not big merchants, just some web hosting merchants too.

If you're in the US, go for CDGCommerce. That's currently what were using and could not be more satisfied.

thanks for the recommendation.

after some research, i think the solution that i wanted is not achievable.

seems like paypal going to have that feature in future..
