well, I use 2checkout.com and for only $50 upfront, i am very happy. No monthly fees, good trans. fees, just a good all-around processor. Or try someone like paypal, hostcharge, or echo-inc

I also use 2checkout.com

Just to give you a quick overview of how much they charge for transactions:

Total in sales over past 2 weeks using 2checkout was:
255.67

Total in account after fees and stuff, 238.45

To be 100% honest, I don't even know what % they take, but I can tell you this... I DO NOTHING :) I just sell and they handle the rest which is key :)

Between 2checkout and paypal, all clients have been happy to date.

Do they require that you have a business account, or would they just send you a check in the mail?

they can do check in the mail, or they can direct deposit in the bank.

Thanks for the figures! I actually signed up with them some 2 years ago I think it was, so they slipped my mind.

I have been super happy with their service to date though!

Boomer, they don't require a buisness account. Any old bank account will do :)

Yes any bank account will do, and i highly recommend them.

I actually recommend revecom, if you think you might get alot of fraud as they use very sophisticated fraud detection algorithms. However, they do tend to charge a bit more 3.95% per transaction and $1 for authorization.

They (2checkout) are just great, you won't be disappointed.

I would suggest Revecom or better yet a real merchant account. For hosting, a merchant account is your best bet. If you must use a third party, Revecom has a feature rich system, 2checkout doesn't even compare to it. With 2checkout you can get killed on chargebacks, they are non-forgiving.

See chargeback discussion here:Here (http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=72660)

My only thing with 2checkout is the payout is limited to $1,000 every 2 weeks unless you do that for several months and then you can inquire to get it raised. It's a pain to have to wait a month or so to receive large payments.
