Web Hosting Talk : Web Hosting Main Forums : Ecommerce Hosting & Discussion : Anyone knows a good and stable 3rd party payment processing?

[erivy]

Hi,

I am looking for a 3rd party payment processing merchant recently and would like to know any payment processing that offer their service to international customer? I don't mind about the comission or setup fees or monthly fee, but I really mind about whether they are stable or not and that I can get out my money from their company smoothly.

2checkout, paysystems and worldpay is definitely out of my list, beside this 3, anyone knows where can I find a better and stable one?

thanks!

if you consider worldpay as unstable, there is no much 3rd party payment service left for you

[erivy]

worldpay is stable, but the fees is too expensive

Check out:
http://www.merchantseek.com/3rdparty.htm

They have a list of Third Party Credit Card Processors.

thanks nightwalker, have you try propay? anyone here try it before?

[Corey Bryant]

Is it for your webhosting business? Or another type of service / product?

[erivy]

hi coreybryant,

it is for both, i am planning to switch and sell another product as well

[Corey Bryant]

Are you in also in Malaysia? Another option to consider as well - maybe add Paypal to you list? They do support Malaysia now

[erivy]

hi coreybryant, yes, I'm from Malaysia. what payment processing are you using? I do not have any US account with me, so it would be difficult for me to take out my money with paypal later.

but erivy Can i not signup with them by giving the address of my friend who is in usa.

[Corey Bryant]

No. You cannot sign up by giving them the address of your friend. Paypal will know where you are.

I am using Multicards for about three months. Everything is good except some delay in settlement. You can select a discount rate depending upon your initial setup fee and later on can upgrade to lower rates. I choose 7.9%+0.45$ and initial setup $350

Other options are etelegate.com, metacharge.com. All three accept international customers.

I have a specific question for merchant account specialists, coreybryant or cdgcommerce:

Metacharge offer:
6%+0.2$ for three months
After three months rates can be further negotiated depending upton the growth and sales history, if found satisfactory they promise to upgrade to full merchant account.

Want your comments.

[Corey Bryant]

It all depends on where you are allhostnet & what services / products you offer. If you are in the U.S. - that is a very high amount. And I would think that they would want you to have your own merchant account vice going thru a 3PP. Having your own merchant account makes you more responsible.

You also might want to do a search on the forums about multicards: http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showth...53#post2388453 - I ran into this one. I have never went to their site but I have ran into one of the owners / workers / something like that & they really did not sit too well with me.

thanks everybody for the suggestion.

coreybryant, if I have account with paypal and open the account using my friend address and name in switzerland, and register paypal in switzerland, is that ok for them? is it possible? how if I get everything verified? I know they can detect the ip is from different country, but does it allowed something like that?
