what is the most cost effective telephone and mail order merchant account for eCommerce?
Posted on July 31st, 2009 by admin
I will be creating a website to sell products within the next year and know that to have a shopping cart i will need a merchant account to process credit card transactions, can anyone tell me what is the best and most cost effective merchant account for a new eCommerce site or could i rely on pay-pal to cover all my needs. i.e will i need a merchant account if i already have a pay-pal account? Thanks in advance.
PayPal can cover all your needs until you establish the business. If you get a merchant account they can take credit cards so your customers don’t have to have Paypal to shop with you. They can also take multiple currencies, which is useful when shipping overseas.
Other merchants you might consider include Worldpay and Nochex, however PayPal is one of the most popular, and if you are planning eBay integration it is essential.
Your business bank may offer these services, but check what they charge first.
