    One way we do it - we fax over a contract & have them sign it. It helps to prevent fraud. Depending on the services / products you offer - this might not be feasible.

    You can also only ship to the billing address. Be wary of people wanting items overnight. Nigeria - best bet - don't ship there.

    If 2Co is working out for you & you are happy with them - stay with them.

    Once you obtain a merchant account, make sure you are collecting and sending information such as address, CVV2 (the 3 digit security code on the back of the card), etc. to ensure that you get the best rate on the transaction. This should be built into your shopping cart's card info. request form.

    Concerning fraud protections, these are controls built into the gateway that you select. Gateways like authorize.net or verisign, while they have an enormous number of users, offer very little in the way of security. You'd be better off using a high end gateway such as Key IC. You'll immediately notice that it is more expensive, depending on your number of transactions/month, but the flexibility and security of the system are well worth it if those are big concerns for you.
