    Hi all

    I have been reading high and low for several hours, but i feel I am not getting any closer to a solution. I am looking for someone that accepts all major credit cards and that accepts recurring payments? Can anyone give me some recommandations on a prosessor that will not cost me an arm and a leg ;)

    thanks,

    Thomas

    If you are not doing an adult site,

    I think that CardServices / Linkpoint can do that pretty easy with Amember.

    Who's Offering Recurring Payments Now?

    Considering the the well documented problems with 2Checkout and the recent demise of PaySystems, who is now offering recurring payments AND is supported by aMember?

    I have two membership web sites I need to set up for recurring membership dues using aMember.

    First, 2CO problems are resolved now.

    Also, there is lot of "real" credit card processors, like :
    linkpoint.com, authorize.net and so on.

    And I always recommend PayPal for US-market, what could be better?

    Hi all,

    I have tried just about every payment processing system around on my sites, and I must say that from my tests, a merchant account is really the only way to go if you really want to make sales! It allows you to keep your visititors on your own site, which increases flexibility and long term profitability...

    I just switched one of my sites from PayPal to a merchant account, and the next day I had a 300% boost in sales! The payment processor was the only thing I changed - in fact, I even did a split test, sending half of my traffic to the paypal signup page and the other half to the merchant account page and the merchant account still got 300% more sales than the paypal page. That was good enough for me, I'm a convert!

    Here is a summary of my research from that last site:

    1) CDGCommerce [These are the guys I ended up going with]
    Couldnt find prices listed directly on site, but found some promo page on
    google: http://www.cdgcommerce.com/ikesys.php
    Per Transaction: 2.30% + $.35
    Monthly Statement: $10
    Monthly Gateway: $15
    NO setup fee!
    They have good customer service.
    High acceptance rate - even for bad credit and "low volume" accounts...

    2) ECHO
    http://www.echo-inc.com/echonline_rates.html
    2.69% + $.30
    $19.95 month
    $99 install

    3) Infodial/Payment Processor
    http://www.paymentprocessor.com/home/details.htm
    2.29% + $.30 (based on credit)
    looks like no other fees.


    Good luck!
    Erik
