will_ Posted July 8, 2003 Share Posted July 8, 2003 We use secpay too and haven't had any problems. I'd strongly advise steering well clear of *nuke sites. As one of the main ways you'll get new customers is from search engines *nuke sites are your worst enemy (they have long URLs and poor HTML code). Either stick with html, or use php with templates so you can easily change the design of the site. Feel free to PM me if you want any tips on search engine optimisation.

DaBouncer Posted July 10, 2003 Share Posted July 10, 2003 Is it possible for your site to take payment DIRECT to your bank account without having to use a 3rd party like Paypal or Nochex? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robh Posted July 10, 2003 Share Posted July 10, 2003 Originally posted by DaBouncer Is it possible for your site to take payment DIRECT to your bank account without having to use a 3rd party like Paypal or Nochex? Not really. The banks don't want to get caught in the middle of the disputes between a buyer and seller who only exist in the relative anonymity of the internet. And who can blame them, there's enough of a problem with fraudulent credit card use over the internet. If both participants in a transaction know and trust each other then they can come to an accommodation that doesn't involve a third party - you might run accounts for regular customers so you send the goods when they ask, you invoice them and they pay-up (which they may be able to do direct to your account from an Internet Banking account).

DaBouncer Posted July 10, 2003 Share Posted July 10, 2003 So basically I'd need to use Paypal/worldpay or something like that to get my payment before I send it to my account? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkjack Posted July 13, 2003 Share Posted July 13, 2003 Check out http://www.protx.com. Flat rate for under 1000 transactions per month. No setup fee. They currently are not integrated with Natwest. My company are beta testing their Natwest integration for them, but you're looking at at least 3 months. Worldpay are good, but expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
