http://checkout.google.com -- Google's answer to PayPal. Best part is, they are taking NO FEES from now through 12/31/2007. So you can use them to receive credit card payments for just over a year for FREE.

At 2% + $20 per transaction they needed to do something to get take-up

I've used it, and once account was setup, I was paid within 2-3 days. Best part is, you can, from inside the webpage, click "Send Invoice" and it will ask you for an email addy, and a description of what you are billing 'em for. You don't have to create a full shopping cart system!!!

I'm assuming that this is US only? An international alternative to Paypal would be nice if only to ensure that rates are kept competitive. -- Lester Caine - G8HFL ----------------------------- L.S.Caine Electronic Services - http://home.lsces.co.uk Model Engineers Digital Workshop - http://home.lsces.co.uk/ModelEngineersDigitalWorkshop/ Treasurer - Firebird Foundation Inc. - http://www.firebirdsql.org/index.php
